Therapist-in-training

Welcome, and thank you for being here!

I'm so glad you're taking this brave step—whether you're exploring therapy for the first time or continuing your healing journey. I’m a therapist-in-training with experience supporting individuals navigating depression, anxiety, and various forms of trauma. I consider it a true honor to walk alongside you, to hear your story, and to support you through your challenges and your triumphs.

My passion lies in helping people reconnect with themselves—whether that means exploring your inner world, understanding your emotions, or clarifying your dreams and life goals. Therapy is your space to discover who you are, who you want to become, and how to move forward with purpose. Together, we’ll find the therapeutic approach that best fits your needs and goals.

Here’s what you can expect from me: warmth, empathy, authenticity, and a genuine commitment to your growth.

A little about me: I’m currently completing my MSW at East Texas A&M. I’m an immigrant, a proud first-generation college graduate, and someone who has worked with people across all age groups. Outside of work and school, I love being outdoors, going on walks with my two dachshunds (Henry and Daisy), and unwinding with a good crochet project.

Let’s discover what’s possible—together.
