I have always had a passion to come alongside and help the hurting. After graduating, I gained a lot of valuable experience working at The Eating Recovery Center and Pathlight Mood and Anxiety Center in the Woodlands, serving individuals struggling with eating disorders, mood and anxiety disorders, self-harm and trauma, and other related struggles. Helping individuals add meaning and value to their life while exploring impactful life events in a safe space is what I strive for; I am devoted to helping clients take charge to create meaningful change.
I love to incorporate different modalities in my counseling, including Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, Parts Work, and Somatic therapy to find the right fit for my clients. I move at the pace of my clients, working to create a safe place where the healing work can be accomplished.
Life is a journey filled with so many highs and lows; it can be hard to navigate on your own. I encourage you to clink the link to my website, schedule a consult call, and allow me to help guide you on your personal path to healing.

Somatic practices are integral to our work as I believe the nervous system and the body are key to increasing agency for you. As we work together, we will collaboratively create a plan that feels fitting, using IFS to address the thoughts, emotions, and experiences of different parts of you as well as DBT to address distressing emotions and feel more capable of facing what life throws at you.
