Holistic Jungian therapist specializing in trauma and relationships
Hi, I am a Licensed Professional Counselor, in the state of Texas, with over 20 years of experience working as a counselor. I have worked with clients with a wide range of concerns including depression, anxiety, relationship issues, parenting problems, anger issues, and life changing events. I also helped many people who have experienced low self-esteem issues or abuse and trauma. I have counseled many children, families, couples, and individuals in a variety of settings.
My counseling style is non-judgmental, warm, and interactive. I believe in treating everyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion. My approach combines Cognitive Behavioral, Motivational Interviewing, Solution-Focused, and Reality Therapy counseling. I will tailor our dialog and treatment plan to meet your specific needs.
My focus in counseling is to meet you where you are with acceptance and non-judgement, and to use an approach that will work best for you as we work toward meeting your therapy goals. With my experience, I genuinely believe I can help families and adults heal their relationships and work through the struggles they face.
It takes courage to take this step for a more fulfilling and happier life and to take the next steps towards a change. If you are ready to take that step, I am here to support and empower you through your journey. You can do it. My motto is “Believe It, Speak It, Achieve It!
I look forward to working with you.

Many people question whether online therapy can make a meaningful difference. For common concerns such as stress, anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, and navigating life changes, online therapy has been shown to be as effective as traditional in-person sessions for most people.
One of the key benefits is convenience and flexibility – individuals can connect with a therapist in the format that suits them best, whether by video call, phone session, live chat, or in-app messaging. This flexibility often makes it easier to fit regular therapy into a busy life.
Licensed professionals provide online therapy, and clients have the option to change therapists if they’d like a different fit. For many people seeking support for everyday mental health concerns, online therapy offers an accessible, effective way to work toward their goals.
