Let’s be real—life gets messy, and sometimes Googling your problems just isn’t cutting it anymore. I work with individuals 15 and up, navigating anxiety, stress, life transitions, or that constant “what am I doing with my life?” loop. I hold an LCSW in TX, MN, MT, ND, SD, AK, and TN, and have over 8 years of experience supporting individuals and families from all walks of life. I’m passionate about working with people of color, and I aim to create a supportive, affirming space where you feel seen and respected.

I have had a 35 + year career of counseling those in need with mental health and substance abuse issues. I have a unique approach to developing a trusting relationship that is meant to let the client steer me to what is important or missing in their life. It is part of the human condition for us to feel lost at times which facilitates the need for an experienced clinician to assist them in finding ways to cope with issues they are experiencing.

Going through rough transitions in life such as dealing with a disability, adjustment to blindness, loss of someone, family conflict, relationship issues, self-esteem issues, or identity issues can take a toll on your mind, body, and spirit. It is extremely challenging to have to deal with all these emotions with nobody to vent to and explore positive ways to deal with these issues. My ideal client is someone who understands and desires a better outlook on life and a better perspective of themselves. Even though you may be going through adjustment to new challenges that create stress, anxiety, or depression, there is always hope.

Living with anxiety and trauma can make everyday life difficult to navigate. Whether you are just starting therapy or returning, I respect how challenging therapy can be and create a supportive space for you to be open. I'm a clinical psychologist who works with adults navigating anxiety disorders, including health anxiety, OCD, panic/agoraphobia & PTSD, as well as a specialty in disordered eating. Many people I work with are also coping with depression, life transitions, or relational stress. My goal is to help you feel supported as we make sense of what you've been through and how it continues to shape your life.
