My journey to become a licensed therapist began many years ago.  Helping others has always been an integral part of my life.  In 2005, I graduated with my bachelor’s degree from Texas State University.  After working in the social services field for several years, I decided to get my master’s from St. Edward’s University in Profession Counseling.  After graduating in 2013, I worked in the substance abuse field for several years where I gained an immense amount of experience with teens, young adults and adults with chemical dependency issues.  I continued my pursuit of expanding my knowledge and skills in various settings such as school, juvenile and adult probation, residential and outpatient programs, and community health clinics.  Groups, individual sessions and family sessions were a valuable part of the individual’s healing

Therapy may challenge you at times but my goal, as your therapist, is to be honest, transparent and empower you throughout your journey.  Therapeutic approaches I often use in session are motivational interviewing, cognitive therapy and solution focused modalities.  However, I utilize the best approach to fit your needs.  I look forward to helping you be the best version of yourself!
