My journey in this field began as a case manager, where I worked with adults who were diagnosed with serious mental illness. Those early experiences motivated me to pursue my Master of Science in Social Work degree at The University of Texas at Austin. Throughout my internships, I was honored to connect with clients on a deeper level to help them navigate challenges such as grief and loss, life transitions, poverty, social isolation, and trauma. Being present with people during such vulnerable times has influenced my approach and deepened my commitment to providing compassionate, person-centered care. 

Reaching out for support can feel overwhelming, and I want you to know that you don’t have to go through this alone. I am committed to creating a safe, welcoming, and non-judgmental space where you truly feel seen, heard, and comfortable exploring your experiences. My approach is holistic, culturally sensitive, and person-centered—recognizing that our mental, physical, spiritual, and social well-being are all interconnected. I believe healing is about nurturing every aspect of who we are. Together, we will collaborate to address the full spectrum of your well-being. I will always respect your unique experiences and honor that you are the true expert in your own life. My role is to walk alongside you as you navigate your path, process your emotions, and build resilience so you can confidently face whatever challenges come your way.

I work with individuals aged 12 and up and also work with families and couples. I draw from a variety of evidence-based therapies such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Narrative Therapy, and Motivational Interviewing. I carefully tailor these interventions to meet each client’s unique needs by considering their individual backgrounds, experiences, and goals. Wherever you are on your journey, I warmly welcome you and am here to support you in creating a life that feels more meaningful and fulfilling. Let’s take that first step together.
