I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker who is passionate about helping people navigate life and the stressors that come with it. I have lived in Texas for most of my life, earning my Master’s in Social Work at the University of Texas at Arlington. I have experience working in high acuity care settings but have spent the last three years working with individuals and families for long-term counseling. I have experience working with all ages from 5 and up and I am skilled in treating a variety of issues including depression, anxiety, trauma, LGBTQIA+ issues, school related issues, communication difficulties, and life transitions. I am exceptionally passionate about helping clients through LGBTQIA+ issues and transitioning to adulthood. My therapeutic modality is heavily based in Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT), focusing on finding healthy ways to feel and experience all emotions. I also use methods from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Mindfulness, Narrative Therapy, Interpersonal Therapy (IPT), and Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT). I get to know you to find the best approach that will help you meet your counseling goals. I look forward to working alongside you to help you find your best self to enjoy life!
