About+Me+Photo.jpg
 

I was born and raised in Texas and I will always call Dallas home. I enjoy exploring different cities, trying new foods, engaging in water activities, and roller skating. Outside of seeing clients, I am a Director of Student Life at the University of Texas at Austin.

I earned my BS in Applied Learning and Development and my master’s in Educational Psychology (Counselor Education) from the University of Texas at Austin. I am trained in school, community, and clinical counseling.

As a therapist and change agent, I believe it is my duty to advocate and support at the individual and community levels. At its core, advocacy is about creating change in circumstances that contribute to or create problems or inequalities.

I am trained and competent in providing services to both youth and adults. I specialize in supporting issues around anxiety and stress, depression, life transitions, relationship struggles, self-esteem, trauma, LGBTQ+ issues, and college student concerns. You can expect me to bring my true and authentic self into sessions. I may not share the same experiences as you, however, I am able to empathize and meet you where you are.

I consider myself to be honest, direct, and transparent. My interests are specifically geared toward those who are Queer, Black, Latinx, or come from refugee backgrounds because I understand that often times they want to do more, but unfortunately, do not have the necessary resources.
