About

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor in the state of Texas. Also, I am a Registered Play Therapist. I graduated with my Master’s in Marriage, Family, and Child Counseling from the University of Mary Hardin-Baylor. I have over five years of experience providing therapy and have worked in many areas of mental health, from a non-profit agency for at-risk youth to an acute mental health hospital. I am passionate and experienced in working with children, adolescents, adults, and parents. I am trained in Play Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT), Eye movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), and Trust-Based Relational Interventions (TBRI). I provide treatment in a variety of areas including attachment issues, grief and loss, parenting, PTSD, trauma, anxiety, at-risk youth, military veterans, active-duty military members, military families, children and adolescents, and many more.

No matter what mental health environment I work in, I believe the therapeutic relationship is the key to the therapeutic process. Therefore, I use various modalities and techniques to meet each individual's needs. When working with children, I believe family involvement is necessary for a child’s success in therapy. My overall goal is for my clients to feel they can be themselves and provide a therapeutic environment that is warm, welcoming, and strengths-based.
