Our counselors provide therapy in Missouri City, TX

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with 20 years of experience supporting individuals navigating depression, anxiety, and post-traumatic stress. I typically work with women ages 20–45, helping them identify issues that interfere with their ability to function or cause them to feel “stuck.” My approach is collaborative and goal-oriented—I work alongside clients to uncover patterns, set meaningful goals, and move toward healing and emotional balance.

I earned a Master’s in Social Work from Barry University. My therapeutic approach integrates cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, mindfulness, and traumatic incident reduction to help clients gain insight, strengthen emotional regulation, and work through past trauma while developing practical coping tools.

If you’re ready to begin your journey toward emotional wellness, I would be honored to support you. I offer both in-person and online sessions, providing a compassionate space for you to heal, grow, and rediscover your inner strength.

¡Hola! Aunque tengo un nombre hispano, no hablo español lo suficientemente bien como para asesorar competentemente a hablantes de español.

I am a licensed professional counselor (LPC) with 7 years of experience helping individuals and couples navigate depression, anxiety, trauma, stress, and major life transitions. I work with clients who are seeking emotional resilience, balance, and greater self-awareness. My goal is to create a safe, culturally sensitive space where healing, growth, and confidence can flourish through compassion, creativity, and evidence-based care.

I earned my master’s in clinical mental health counseling from Lamar University. I integrate cognitive behavioral therapy, experiential techniques, and creative expression to help clients understand emotions, challenge unhelpful patterns, and build practical coping skills. My approach is collaborative, compassionate, and empowering.

I believe healing is not about perfection but about progress and self-compassion. Together, we’ll create a safe space to explore, heal, and rediscover peace and purpose. When you’re ready, I’d be honored to walk alongside you on your journey toward growth and emotional well-being.
