Do you have trouble getting out of bed in the morning (or evening for you shift workers)? Do you dread going to work? Are you going through a major life transition? You are not alone, and I am excited to start this journey with you. I am here to meet you wherever you are. I use a variety of approaches tailored to your needs, creating a client-led space where we collaborate on your goals. In our sessions, you can cry, laugh, vent, or cuss if that’s what you need.
My professional journey spans over seven years of law enforcement experience, complemented by several additional years in diverse helping professions. I have extensive training and experience in domestic violence and trauma.
I am a dog mom to two spirited rescues. I enjoy making crafts and love all things Halloween. I am actively engaged in my community and serve on the board for Hays Co Crimestoppers. Are you ready to feel better and look forward to getting out of bed? Call, text or email me to set up a free 15 minute consultation to see if we are a good fit to work together.

As a first responder myself, I understand the unique culture and challenges. I will provide a nonjudgmental space where you don't have to explain the dynamics of a police department. You can cuss and be yourself and your department will never know you sought help.

I use an eclectic approach. CBT helps you reframe any irrational thoughts and a new way to view them. Solution-focused aims to help you find solutions & what has worked in the past. Person-centered means I'm here to listen without utilizing specific techniques. EMDR can help you reprocess trauma. I have a therapy dog named Blanca and utilize Animal Assisted Therapy.
