I am dedicated to supporting all members of the Houston community on their journey towards recovery. While I am here for everyone, I have a particular focus and prior experience in assisting professionals, entrepreneurs, executives, high-net-worth individuals, and members of the LGBTQ+ community. I understand the unique challenges faced by those dealing with substance abuse, addiction, depression, anxiety, ADHD, Attachment Injury, and Trauma. Many feel trapped or overwhelmed, having attempted to manage their struggles independently. Let's navigate this journey together, working towards lasting recovery and holistic well-being.

Choosing a therapist can be challenging in a lot of ways. For starters, you're probably looking for a therapist because things are a bit tricky right now. You might be feeling anxious already and it can take time to find someone you can talk to. Then, when you finally do meet with someone, it can be hard to trust the therapist in the very first session. On top of that, when you finally DO find the person you're comfortable talking to, your insurance might not cover your sessions, or maybe you don't have insurance at all.

Painful life experiences have affected your daily life; impacting your sleep, decreasing your self esteem and increasing anxiety. It's hard to know what to do; friends give advice but it doesn't seem to be enough. It's okay to reach out and get another opinion. Continuing to live with high levels of stress and anxiety can impact physical health, so taking care of your mental health is as important as your physical health. I can help you get on a better path that feels more in line with the person you want to be, whether you are worried about yourself or your child.

In these uncertain times of the post-pandemic era, it's completely understandable that you might be feeling overwhelmed and scared by the numerous stressors and uncertainties you're facing. You may find yourself wondering how to navigate through it all. It's common to seek understanding and comfort from friends and family, but sometimes it feels like they may not fully grasp what you're going through or how to provide the support you truly need. You may also find yourself getting caught up in social media images and struggling to move forward with the things you want to achieve.

It is possible to regain your power after a codependent relationship and learn to embody yourself after trauma. I utilize somatic and process-based techniques as needed for your optimal growth. Allow me to make the space to support you on your healing journey. You are in control!

My practice focuses on helping clients achieve a better understand thoughts, feelings and needs to gain better control and direction in their lives. Some outcomes of therapy have included strengthening relationships, finding connection, receiving feedback, and ongoing self-discovery. The initial stages of our work will be based in forming a trusting, safe and open environment, due to the natural vulnerabilities that exist during the therapeutic process. Once a solid working relationship is formed, I take a united therapist-client approach to address client needs.

My approach is to empower clients with the tools they need to grow and create a life that is enjoyable and productive. I work with individuals who feel overwhelmed by depression, anxiety, deep loss, caretaker fatigue, and professional burnout. My belief is that people are largely defined by their past and present experiences. Both past and present experiences can cause psychological distress, anxiety, depression, or feeling overwhelmed.

You want to be okay, but you don’t know how. You want someone to not just listen, but to give you real world solutions to help you move forward into the version of you who is happy, healthy, & whole. Maybe you are afraid it isn't possible. Maybe you've tried therapy before and it didn't help. Maybe you are scared to try again. That's okay. You need someone to be real with you, not patronize you. You need a nonjudgmental & supportive space. You need to know that you are not alone, & it is okay to hope. Maybe what you need is for the therapists of Voyager Health Services to show you the way forward. We can help if you let us.

Is online therapy a good option?
Therapy conducted online can be just as effective as in-person therapy, as long as there is a strong alliance between the client and the therapist. To find a therapist who provides telehealth services to clients in your area, click “Online Therapy” on the directory homepage and search by your city or town or your zip code.
What’s the difference between a psychologist, a therapist, and a counselor?
Therapists, psychologists, and counselors are all licensed mental health professionals. In the US, psychologists have earned a doctoral degree. The terms “therapist” and “counselor” are used somewhat interchangeably, but generally therapists offer longer-term, mental health care, while counselors offer shorter-term care that may focus on one domain, such as marriage, career, or academic challenges.
What type of therapist is right for me?
Clients should consider factors such as insurance coverage and their primary reason(s) for seeking therapy to determine the type of professional best suited to their needs. Someone struggling with mental health challenges such as depression or anxiety, for example, may wish to seek out a clinical psychologist or therapist, while someone navigating career obstacles or marital upheaval may benefit from seeing a counselor who can offer short-term, targeted support.
Is everyone in the Psychology Today Therapy Directory a licensed therapist?
The Psychology Today directory lists providers who offer legitimate mental health services to the public, including psychologists, psychiatrists, social workers, and counselors. Many have been licensed by the country or state where they practice; providers whose license or primary credential has been verified by Psychology Today are signified by a “Verified” symbol. Some clinicians or organizations provide services for which their state or country does not offer licenses, such as pastoral counseling. They may be selectively included without the “Verified” seal.
What type of therapy is right for me?
The type of therapy best suited to a particular individual depends on several factors, including their primary reason for seeking therapy, their preferred timeline (some therapy types last for a set number of sessions, while others are open-ended), and their personality and preferences—some may prefer a more structured approach. For many individuals, multiple types of therapy could provide a good fit.
Is online therapy cheaper than in-person therapy?
Many therapists charge the same amount for online therapy as they do for in-person therapy—though clients may still find this cost-effective if it cuts down on their transportation costs. Health insurance plans often offer equivalent coverage for online and in-person therapy; indeed, in many places, they are legally required to do so. Text-based or on-demand therapy apps may be cheaper than traditional one-on-one psychotherapy; however, the practice may be less effective and is not likely to be covered by insurance.
