Hello There!

Born and raised in the Bay Area of California, I became a therapist after working 15 years in law enforcement where it became apparent to me that both the first responders and the community were in high need of mental health support. Between the revolving doors caused by systemic issues and taboos about therapy, I was encouraged by God to be a different kind of help for my community. My experiences led me to attend National University where I completed my graduate studies in Counseling Psychology. From there, I completed my pre-licensure experience with Family Concern Counseling at Youth For Christ Central Valley.

 

One thing I have gained from all of my experiences working with people is the importance of a healthy relationship and connection we have with ourselves and others. The bible writes, "Let us think of ways to motivate one another to acts of love and good works. And let us not neglect our meeting together, as some people do, but encourage one another, especially now that the day of his return is drawing near."- Hebrews 10: 24-25. 

 

Outside of therapy, I love watching baseball with my family, crafting, and reading. Since moving to Texas in 2023, my new favorite thing is visiting new restaurants and of course, coffee shops! My biggest joys come from seeing my clients find hope and clarity.
