With nearly twenty years of experience, I help parents, individuals, and couples understand what’s beneath the surface so they can communicate more effectively, reconnect with what matters, and create meaningful shifts in their home and relationships. My style is warm, direct, and grounded. I work well with people who worry therapy won’t help, or haven’t found the right fit before. Clients often say that having space to feel understood helps them move forward with more confidence and calm. I offer the time, presence, and thoughtful guidance to make sense of what’s been getting in the way. I work with couples and individuals who feel unsatisfied in their marriage, are contemplating separation or divorce, or are having a difficult time parenting together or co-parenting apart. I help individuals and couples discover what is possible for their relationship, find balance, confidence, and peace in parenting, and learn and grow as individuals. When I work with kids and teens, I also include the parents in the process. The parent-child relationship is vital in the development of healthy self-esteem and the health of future relationships. In my office, I meet kids and teens where they are and at their maturity level. I am a registered play therapist, utilizing age-appropriate spaces and activities that allow kids and teens to express themselves, grow, and develop emotionally. I offer in-person sessions in Plano and North Dallas, and virtual telehealth sessions anywhere in Texas.

Life can look fine on the outside while still feeling overwhelming, uncertain, or out of balance. I’m a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Texas, and I work with adolescents (16+) and adults who are navigating anxiety, eating disorders, depression, life transitions, relationship challenges, caregiving stress, and the pressures of everyday life. My approach is warm, collaborative, and practical, helping clients better understand themselves while developing tools to manage emotions, respond to challenges with greater confidence, and create lasting change. I integrate evidence-based approaches, including acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT), eye movement desensitization and reprocessing (EMDR), and accelerated resolution therapy (ART), tailoring treatment to each person’s unique needs. Whether you’re facing a specific challenge or simply want to feel more like yourself again, therapy can provide a supportive space to move toward greater clarity, resilience, and peace.

Sometimes life presents us with challenges that are overwhelming. I work to provide a non threatening, non judgmental space to work on thoughts, feelings, and emotions. Finding your authentic self and appropriately expressing your desires benefits an overall well being. I collaborate with each client individually based upon the specific circumstances and am able to use several different theories and techniques to provide desired outcomes. I see individuals, couples, and families to benefit the relationships in between. Everyone has the potential to live a happy and fulfilling life, sometimes we just need to be nudged in the right direction.

I specialize in depression, self-harm, grief, and couples counseling, based in Fort Worth and virtually across Texas. My ideal clients are those who have experienced a significant loss, are struggling with depression, or feel disconnected from a partner they want to reconnect with. Many of my clients also carry pain they’ve turned inward, whether that’s a persistent low mood that won’t lift or urges to self-harm as a way of coping. You may have been told your grief has gone on too long, that you should “snap out of” your depression, or that you’re too hard on yourself. You may feel alone in your pain, unsure if what you’re experiencing is normal. My work with grief is grounded in a companioning philosophy. Rather than trying to fix your pain, I walk alongside you as you face the wilderness of loss, creating space to honor your emotions and mourn at your own pace. The word bereave literally means “to be torn apart,” and it takes time to heal from that. With depression and self-harm, I draw on cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) and person-centered therapy to help you identify the negative, intrusive thoughts that drive how you feel and treat yourself. Together, we’ll work to uncover a truer, often kinder version of those thoughts, and practice speaking to yourself the way you would speak to someone you love. This work often includes learning to accept your faults and extend yourself forgiveness, rather than carrying self-judgment as a constant weight. With couples, I use the Gottman Method, an approach that helps partners build a deeper friendship, manage conflict in healthier ways, and create shared meaning together. We’ll work on recognizing the patterns that lead to disconnection or gridlock, replacing criticism and defensiveness with curiosity and repair, and rebuilding trust after it’s been broken. Whether you’re working through a specific betrayal, feeling more like roommates than partners, or simply want to strengthen a relationship that’s already good, this approach gives us concrete tools to help you feel closer and more understood. I understand that reaching out takes courage when you are carrying so much. Know that you will not be assessed or hurried here, only met with compassion and deep respect for what you’re going through. Whether you’re grieving a loss, working to quiet a harsh inner voice, or rebuilding connection with your partner, I warmly invite you to reach out. You do not have to walk this journey alone.

I believe therapy should feel like a conversation—not an interrogation, a lecture, or a test you have to pass. My job is to offer a space where you can be messy, honest, unsure, hurting, hopeful, or anything in between. When we work together, I show up as a real person—curious, compassionate, and steady. I help you untangle what’s heavy, learn what’s underneath the patterns that keep repeating, and build tools that actually fit your life. We’ll slow down when things feel overwhelming, ground ourselves when emotions take over, and celebrate growth in ways that feel meaningful to you. I don’t believe in “fixing” people—because you’re not broken. I believe in helping you reconnect with your strength, your voice, and the parts of you that may have gotten lost underneath stress, relationships, trauma, or expectations. Whether we’re navigating anxiety, addiction recovery, life transitions, or the grief and chaos that happens behind closed doors, you don’t have to go through it alone. I’ll walk beside you—steady, compassionate, and fully invested in your healing.

I work with clients of all ages and consider their culture, lifestyle, gender, and life experiences to determine the most beneficial treatment approaches for therapy. We work together to determine what goals you would like to accomplish through therapy, whether you are coming as an individual, couple, or family. It is important to feel comfortable with the therapist you choose to work with, so please do not hesitate to call me with any questions you might have. I look forward to your call!

Engaging in psychotherapy offers a range of evidence-based benefits. As a clinician, I utilize established modalities, including cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), to address maladaptive thought patterns. Also, the Rogerian (person-centered) approach fosters a strong therapeutic alliance noted in unconditional positive regard, congruence, and empathy.
