I am a Licensed Professional Counselor with 4 years of experience working as a unit therapist at one of Houston's busiest psychiatric hospitals, where I have assisted teens and adults in acute psychiatric distress. Originally from Australia, I immigrated to the United States in 1995 and have raised three daughters, navigating life transitions, grief, divorce, and depression along the way.

I have experience working with survivors of domestic violence and sexual assault, depression, anxiety, children, teens, adults, & groups.
I entered this field because I am passionate about eliminating the mental illness stigma and closing the gap to access to care, particularly in black and indigenous people of color (BIPOC) communities. I was disheartened by the lack of access to care for my students and their families, as well as a lack of cultural representation in the field. Patients would say they appreciate my ability to relate in many ways; culturally, as a military veteran, as a single mother faced with many challenges, or even as a product of very strict religious beliefs, having grown up in the south.

It's time to walk into a new season of your life that focuses on you.

Domestic Abuse Therapists
What are the most effective ways to recover from domestic abuse?
Leaving an abusive relationship requires tremendous courage, so survivors in treatment should recognize that they have already completed the most important step. Still, the trauma of physical or emotional abuse can be difficult to process and overcome. Therapy can help survivors process trauma, grief, and difficult emotions, treat relevant mental health symptoms, and create a new framework for boundaries and relationships in the future. For some, support groups can also be an invaluable outlet for healing.
When should an individual seek help for domestic abuse?
Victims of intimate partner violence should seek help immediately. It can take substantial time, planning, energy, and courage to leave an abusive relationship, but starting the process—by seeking therapy, calling the domestic violence hotline, or simply confiding in a loved one—will help them get there. Those who have left abusive relationships but haven’t sought treatment can also greatly benefit from therapy to process and heal from the experience.
What are the consequences of staying in an abusive relationship?
Remaining in an abusive relationship has serious repercussions. In addition to the ongoing threat of physical danger and emotional abuse, research shows that intimate partner violence is associated with a range of mental health disorders including depression, post-traumatic stress disorder, anxiety, and substance abuse. Therefore it’s important for individuals in an abusive relationship to seek help as soon as possible.
How can you get domestic abuse treatment for someone else?
It can be very complicated to identify and leave an abusive relationship; barriers include the threat of violence, financial instability, and family pressures. Those concerned about a loved one in an abusive relationship should talk to them about the situation, provide them with resources such as the domestic violence hotline, and introduce the idea of seeing a therapist due to their concern for the person’s safety and well-being.
