About My Clients

I welcome clients from all backgrounds and concerns. I am an affirming LGBTQ+ counselor who believes in the Black Lives Matter movement. I was born and raised in the Rio Grande Valley of South Texas, where my passion first developed for working with minorities. Primary I have journeyed with clients navigating eating disorders, anxiety, depression, grief, and life transitions. I look forward to helping you create the change you desire and meet your goals.

My Background and Approach

My primary treatment approaches are Person Centered, Solution Focused, Cognitive Behavioral and Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, but what we use will all depend on you. Addressing your wants and needs.

My Personal Beliefs and Interests

Each of us is unique, and for that reason, I believe therapy is not a one-size-fits-all. My goal is to work together to create an individualized approach for you and your needs. Counseling can provide a safe space where you feel heard and understood in a non-judgmental, supporting environment. There is no concern too big or small for therapy. You are not alone, and it would be my honor to hear your story.
