About

I am licensed in Texas with 4 years of professional work experience. I work with my clients to create an open and safe environment where thoughts and feelings can be shared without fear of judgment. Taking the first step to sign up for therapy can take courage and I am proud of you for getting started!

My experience has provided me with the training and tools needed to uphold the values of the field of Counseling, including honoring the dignity and autonomy of the patients and practicing multicultural humility in my work across a widely heterogeneous population. I was able to work with a diverse population (adults, children, adolescents, and groups) that present with extensive psychosocial barriers to utilizing behavioral healthcare as well as complex clinical diagnoses such as substance use, trauma, depression anxiety, grief, couples, and groups, … etc.
Using CBT and other multiple evidence-based treatments such as MI, CPT, ACT, and SFBT, I aim to help individuals reduce their psychological distress in a non-judgmental empathetic environment and in a journey that is based on warmth respect, and flexibility that facilitate their ability to benefit from treatment.
I use Carl Rogers analogy as a guide to my rapport with clients: "one thing I have come to look upon as almost universal is that when a person realizes he has been deeply heard, there is a moistness in his eyes I think in some real sense he is weeping for joy. It is as though he were saying, Thank God somebody heard me. Someone knows what it’s like to be me
