Maybe you're newly single, or new to town, and you despair because you're lonely, you feel lost, and you wonder if things will ever get better. Perhaps you have a history of complicated relationships, and you've noticed you repeat the same cycle but can't stop. Or could it be you say yes... to everything and everyone, and now you're burned out and resentful. Getting up in the morning is a struggle. You're on the verge of crying. You're lashing out. Whatever is going on, your situation is leaving you anxious, discouraged, and even hopeless at times. Sometimes life circumstances feel overwhelming, confusing, or just plain hard.

My practice is dedicated to fostering strong connections and promoting individual well-being within the familial context. I specialize in addressing a range of concerns with a focus on anxiety and depression. My expertise lies in helping individuals navigate and overcome challenges to promote overall well-being and personal growth.

My passion is to support individuals and couples as they navigate the challenges of everyday life, including depression, anxiety, fear, infidelity, boundary-setting, parenting, ADHD, and relationship issues. By walking alongside them on their journey, I aim to help them confront their struggles and take meaningful steps toward healing. Through my own experiences, I have seen how life's trials can be transformed into opportunities for growth, healing, hope, joy, and freedom, with God's guidance.

Mental health problems don’t define who you are. They are something you experience. You walk in the rain and you feel the rain, but you are NOT the rain. — Matt Haig. My philisophy with therapy: "Therapy is a short term investment that should provide life long benefits". I like to work with clients who are interested in putting in the work and moving on with life; moving on with skills, boundaries and a sense of confidence. I focus on ADHD, anxiety, depression and helping people get through life difficulties such as career guidance, relationship issues and daily stress. Life is hard-Don't do it alone.

You want to appear more outgoing, productive, and like you are “on top of things” but deep down you are struggling to cope with anxiety and low self-esteem. You're someone who enjoys your alone time but still finds yourself wanting to be active and feel included. You want to feel less exhausted and find that too many things going on at once can leave you feeling frazzled. You also may struggle with overanalyzing a past conversation you had or maybe you feel self-critical. You are ready to start feeling some relief, hope, and happiness again. Most of all, you are ready to feel less anxious and stressed. I want to help you get there.

We are biologically wired from birth to need safe, accepting connections with others. When we get those, we develop openness to relationships and resilience to cope with life’s inevitable pain. If you lacked that support, patterns can develop that inadvertently keep you stuck in pain. These patterns can include self-criticism, worry, anger, lethargy, numbness, shame, guilt, fear of closeness, and more. My work focuses on helping people with past abuse and neglect rediscover their body’s innate ability to rebalance from stress, relate to themselves with more care, and relate to others more confidently and authentically.

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor Supervisor in the State of Texas and is registered to provide mental health and telehealth services across the state. My goal is simple: To Help You!

My strongest belief as a therapist is that there must be a connection between therapist and client, one of trust and respect. Not all therapists are a right fit for you, you have to find the therapist you connect with. I have worked with individuals and their families to gain skills for coping with and managing issues surrounding depression, anxiety, bipolar disorder, PTSD, and behavioral struggles along with relational and personal issues. I have worked with adolescents in hospital outpatient settings as well as private practice. I have experience working with children, adult individuals, couples, and families.

My sessions are provided in English and Portuguese via telehealth. Most of my clients are individuals who suffer from depression, anxiety, panic, obsessions and compulsions, co-dependency, and/or relationship issues. I work with clients who value expertise and are willing to invest in their wellbeing and relationships. How important is it for you to feel better? How willing are you to make getting better a priority in your life? Therapy requires commitment and these questions may help you to make a decision whether therapy is an approach worth trying.
