As a licensed therapist in Texas, I specialize in supporting individuals navigating complex emotional landscapes. My approach centers on helping clients develop self-understanding, resilience, and meaningful connections. I have extensive experience addressing challenges like depression, anxiety, relationship dynamics, and self-esteem concerns.
My therapeutic practice is deeply compassionate and tailored to each individual's unique journey. I draw from evidence-based approaches to help clients explore personal growth, overcome social barriers, and rediscover their sense of purpose. Whether you're struggling with isolation, communication difficulties, or seeking deeper self-acceptance, I'm committed to walking alongside you with empathy and professional guidance.
Fluent in both English and Spanish, I strive to create a welcoming, non-judgmental space where clients can explore their experiences and develop transformative strategies for emotional wellness. My goal is to empower you to build stronger, more fulfilling relationships—with yourself and others.

Online counseling, sometimes called teletherapy, refers to talk therapy delivered remotely through digital platforms, such as video calls, phone calls, or chat. It can be a great option for people who face barriers to traditional face-to-face therapy, such as those living in remote areas, individuals with mobility issues, or people with busy schedules that make it difficult to attend in-person sessions.
Teletherapy also offers greater convenience and flexibility, allowing clients to access care from the comfort of their homes. Research shows that the treatment outcomes with online counseling are often just as effective as with traditional therapy, providing a viable alternative for individuals seeking mental health support.
