I am a master-level licensed clinical social worker in Texas with over 34 years of experience. I have worked with clients facing a wide variety of issues. My goal is to create a safe environment so that your healing can progress.
My approach
My therapy style is client-centered, interactive, and supportive. I believe that treating everyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion is essential to successful therapy. I will adapt our dialog and treatment plan to meet your needs. I use aspects from various therapy styles, including Acceptance and Commitment (ACT), Cognitive Behavioral (CBT), Compassion Focused, and Humanistic approaches, so you can have a well-rounded path of recovery.
My focus
I work with individuals, couples, and minors (ages 13-17). My specialties include helping adolescents and teens, as well as adults struggling with anxiety, depression, women's issues, and grief.
My communication style
I communicate in a caring, respectful manner, adapting my approach to your needs. Through attentive listening and interactive dialog, I aim to create a safe space where you feel heard and supported on your healing journey.
My journey to mental healthcare
I earned my Master of Social Work (MSW) degree from The University of Texas at Arlington. Driven by a desire to support others on their healing journeys, I have dedicated the past 34 years to providing compassionate therapy services to a diverse range of clients.
My goals for you
My goal is to empower you to progress on your healing journey in a safe, supportive environment. I am here to listen without judgment, provide tools and insights to help you grow, and walk alongside you as you work towards improved mental health and wellbeing.
My first session with you
In our first session, we will focus on understanding your unique needs, concerns, and goals. I will ask questions to learn more about you and what brought you to therapy. Together, we will begin to develop a personalized treatment plan to guide our work. You can expect me to be attentive, caring, and committed to supporting you every step of the way. I look forward to working with you!
