Hello! I’m a Licensed Professional Counselor Associate in Texas and a Licensed Professional Counselor Candidate in Colorado. I work with individuals ages 16+ whose experiences have often been dismissed, misfiled, or simplified. My approach is integrative, paying attention to both meaning and the ways the body has carried experience, especially when what you know now and what you feel seem disconnected. This is a normal trauma response by the way, and body-based tools woven into therapy can be helpful.

My work is informed by formal training and lived experience in several of the areas I support. I value clinical training, and I’ve also seen how lived understanding deepens trauma work in ways theory alone can’t — particularly when it comes to complexity and overlap with concerns. Your experiences don’t need to be softened or simplified to be taken seriously by me.

Telehealth Therapy

I provide secure online sessions, which can allow a consistent space for healing without the stress of travel, scheduling, or chronic pain flare-ups.

Please note: While this format offers accessibility and convenience, telehealth is not clinically appropriate for every situation. Factors such as symptom severity, safety concerns, or lack of privacy may require in-person services or referral to a different level of care. Telehealth appropriateness is assessed collaboratively and reassessed throughout treatment.

Diversity & Belonging

I recognize that every story has passed through different places.

All are welcome.

The Therapy I Offer is:

  • Trauma-focused therapy is a type of psychotherapy that helps you explore and process the impact of past trauma so it no longer holds power over your daily life.

  • Some people experience their inner world in ways that include shifts in memory or identity. I recognize these experiences as real, meaningful, and adaptive responses to stress or trauma.

    All parts of a client’s experience are respected, heard, and collaborated with.

  • I welcome all sexual orientations, gender identities, and expressions without judgment, pathologizing, or assumptions.

  • The therapy I offer is grounded in racial justice, curiosity about power, and centers your lived experience.

  • I honor different neurotypes, sensory needs, communication styles, processing speed, and modes of being.

    Accommodations can be requested at any time if needed.

  • I’m aware that spirituality or religion can be healing for some, or be a source of pain for others. I do not assume any beliefs, whether religious and/or spiritual, questioning, skeptical or secular, and I won’t impose a worldview.

    If you wish to explore these topics, I’m completely open to that. If not, that is respected and valid.
