Connect with Psychodynamic therapy in Salado, TX

I am a compassionate partner in your healing process—especially during times of social, political, and cultural uncertainty. In a world where many individuals and communities are navigating increased stress, marginalization, and fear, I am committed to offering a space where your lived experience is seen, respected, and affirmed.

I have 31 years experience in the MH field - diagnostics, therapy, director and 15 years as an adjunct professor. I help clients solve challenges and barriers so they may progress in their lives to be the best they can be.

I support clients with a grounded, attuned approach that helps them feel understood from the start. I have years of experience treating anxiety, depression, trauma, and life transitions. My work is practical and empowering, guiding clients toward clarity, resilience, and long-term emotional balance.

I help individuals navigate challenges like depression, anxiety, low self-esteem, relationship issues, life transitions, and recovering from narcissistic abuse. My goal is to support you in creating meaningful change and building a life that feels more aligned with who you want to be.

If you are feeling overwhelmed, anxious, or stuck in your own head, you might be here because something no longer feels sustainable. Maybe your thoughts feel heavy, your nervous system feels on edge, or you are doing your best to hold everything together while quietly wondering, why does this feel so hard? If that resonates, you are not alone.

You're the one everyone turns to—the strong one, the responsible one, the one who gets it done. But beneath the success, you may be feeling exhausted, overwhelmed, or like you're constantly proving your worth. If you're feeling the weight of being everything for everybody, I want to help you put away the cape.

I help adults make sense of patterns that keep showing up in their relationships, their parenting, and their inner world. My work is rooted in trauma awareness, attachment, and cultural identity, and I care a lot about creating a space where you can be fully yourself, not “the polished version.”

Many of us struggle with pressure, stress, depression, and anxiety. Over time, we can be susceptible to thoughts, emotions, and behaviors we need to change for improved emotional health. I am dedicated to connecting with you and guiding you to find peace and cope better with life.

I help individuals navigate grief, anxiety, life transitions, and emotional overwhelm with compassion and practical tools. My goal is to create a safe space where you feel heard, supported, and empowered to move forward with strength and clarity.

I work with adolescents and adults who are navigating anxiety, life transitions, and the lasting impact of difficult or overwhelming experiences. Together, we create a supportive space to make sense of what you’re going through and find practical ways to feel more grounded, confident, and in control.

I'm passionate about helping individuals navigate life's challenges with clarity, compassion, and evidence-based care. My approach blends warmth and professionalism, creating a safe space where you can explore your thoughts, build resilience, and move toward meaningful change.

There is life after life starts living! We all go through a period in time in which we need someone to talk to. Someone who is not going to judge us, downplay our struggle, or try to take control of our lives. I believe that the ability to express oneself can begin the process of healing and restoration we all need. Can we talk?

Do you feel you’ve lost a sense of yourself while navigating life’s challenges, stuck in survival mode due to anxiety, depression, and trauma, as well as unhealthy relationships and coping patterns? Together, we work on emotional regulation tools, healing, and building healthy relationships so you can feel grounded, resilient, and self-led again.

You are unique, and so are your needs in therapy. I take a collaborative approach as we determine what works best for you. I believe healing and wholeness are available for every person. I work with people experiencing life transitions, grief, relationship challenges, anxiety, and women's concerns.

Taking the first step to begin this journey is a powerful act of self-care. You deserve a space where you can think clearly, feel deeply, and grow with confidence. Although starting therapy can feel vulnerable, you do not have to navigate it alone. I provide a supportive, grounded environment where you can explore challenges openly and at your own.

I focus on client-centered care and use evidence-based practices to help you achieve your wellness goals. My focus is on helping you manage depression and anxiety while working toward your mental health goals. I believe creating a safe space for talk therapy is fundamental to fostering trust and openness.

Everyone deserves to have a trusted support or guide along life’s journey­­––counseling can be a place to find just that. Counseling can be like a cool drink of water in a desert oasis, helping you rejuvenate and find rest for your soul, while you’re working towards where you want to be.

If you have struggled with anxiety, depression, work or relationship issues, or other difficulties, it can feel like nothing will ever change. With the support of an empathic therapist, you can uncover the obstacles that are holding you back and work through them. You can create a more satisfying and fulfilling life.
