I am licensed in Texas with 6 years of professional work experience in individual counseling, group therapy & in the context of the disaster response/recovery field responding to natural and man-made crises globally.
In my career, I have assisted clients with issues of anxiety, depression, grief + loss, substance abuse issues, mental health crises, and other traumatic life experiences. I am passionate about healing + integration via mindfulness, creativity & connection on both an individual + community level.
I endeavor to assist my clients in developing an increased sense of self-compassion, purpose + motivation, confident self-knowledge, and overall sense of balance in their lives. In order to meet your unique and specific needs, I will tailor the treatment approach as we collaborate to meet your goals.
I am grateful for the opportunity to support & empower my clients in taking steps for change in the pursuit of a happier, more fulfilling life. I look forward to hearing from you if you decide that you are ready to move forward with your healing journey.

Online counseling allows you to receive care from a mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.
