Who I am
Client focus
I look forward to working alongside YOU in whatever path you have decided to take in life (or life has taken you on). I have unique experience and training in helping others through the grieving and bereavement processes. My typical client is 14+ years old. I tend to focus on a DBT heavy approach to therapy and can also provide EMDR for people who have experienced trauma. I am very experienced in working with the LGBTQ, transgender, kink and polyamorous communities. I am an approved clinical supervisor through the Texas State Board of Social Worker Examiners and I am eager to assist others in becoming clinically licensed.
My experience
Twelve years of practicing social work has given me experience working with: people in the Queer/LGBT community, people struggling with gender identity issues or who are in the process of transitioning as well as the polyamorous and kink communities. I also hold a special place in my heart for working with those who are experiencing grief and loss.
Taking the first step
One of the hardest parts of counseling is making the initial call to establish a therapeutic relationship, you have come this far and I know that was not easy, give me a call and see where it takes you. If you find animals comforting, please let me know as I have a sweet therapy dog who would love to join our session.

Experience
I work with adolescents (14+) and adults with a focus on the LGBTQIA+ community. I collaborate with my clients as we work through issues such as Personality Disorders, Mood Disorders, Trauma, Anxiety, and Life Transitions. I also specialize in working with those who have experienced pet loss and grief, have witnessed/been exposed to animal violence, and Veterinary Professionals experiencing Compassion Fatigue and Burnout. I work from a client-centered approach, understanding that each client is the expert in their own experience.
I work from a trauma-informed lens and draw from attachment theories and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy. I have trained in Dialectical Behavior Therapy and believe this therapy can be useful for client's of many different backgrounds. Each client is different, and I collaborate with each person to find the therapy that is the best fit.
I strive to create a warm and empathetic space where my clients feel respected and heard. My co-therapist is a golden retriever who is a trained therapy dog. She offers comfort and helps my clients build trust. The relationship between the client and therapist is of utmost importance. I welcome your call to see if I am a good fit for your needs.
