I was born and raised in Houston. I earned my bachelor's (BA, 2006) and first master's (Ed. Admin., MS, 2008) from Baylor University, second master's (Clinical Mental Health, M.A., 2014) from Sam Houston State University, and currently graduated (Spring 2022) with my doctorate in Counselor Education and Supervision from Sam Houston State University. My ideal client is one who has acknowledged they need to speak with someone, and has decided to take the first step to healing. My goal is to provide a safe, confidential space. I desire to develop a therapeutic relationship, where you have the freedom to disclose and be vulnerable without judgment. I strive to create an environment of trust and respect. I believe this is essential in the therapeutic relationship. I believe you are the expert on your life! I view each client as a unique individual. I have experience in clinical counseling with college students who have presented with a span of life issues. These include depression, anxiety, and challenges with moods, emotions, and change. I love the work that I do, and I would be honored to join you on your path to healing, in whatever way works best for you!
