I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in Texas with experience providing trauma-informed mental health services to children, adolescents, and adults in community, residential, and telehealth settings. I earned my Bachelor of Social Work and Master of Science in Social Work from The University of Texas Rio Grande Valley. Growing up in South Texas and being bilingual in English and Spanish inspired my passion for providing culturally responsive care. My approach to therapy is compassionate, collaborative, and client-centered, with a focus on helping individuals and families feel supported, empowered, and safe.
Clients can expect a welcoming, supportive, and nonjudgmental environment where they feel heard and understood. During the first session, we will discuss your current concerns, personal history, and goals for therapy at a pace that feels comfortable for you.
My greatest strengths as a therapist are my ability to create a supportive, nonjudgmental space while also helping clients develop practical tools for meaningful change. I strive to build strong therapeutic relationships where clients feel heard, understood, and empowered throughout the healing process.

I'm best positioned to support individuals who struggle with anxiety, overthinking, self-doubt, or self-criticism. Many of my clients are used to pushing through or taking care of others, but find it hard to extend that same compassion to themselves. They're often insightful and motivated, but feel stuck in patterns that no longer serve them.
