Top therapists in Texas accepting new patients
Everyone has a story, and I believe healing begins when someone finally has the space to tell it without fear of judgment.
I work with children, teens, adults, couples, and families facing anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, relationship struggles, and life's unexpected challenges. Whether you're feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or simply exhausted from carrying too much for too long, therapy can become a place where things begin to make sense again.
I spent more than 25 years walking alongside people through some of life's most difficult moments. Today, I combine that life experience with evidence-based therapy to help clients better understand themselves, strengthen their relationships, and move toward lasting change.
My goal isn't simply to help you feel better—it's to help you heal in ways that create meaningful and lasting transformation.

If you're an ADHD client who feels like you've tried everything your therapist suggested, and nothing has worked, there's probably a reason why.
Strategies that are made for someone else aren't going to work for you, because you can't force your brain to become "neurotypical."
ADHD therapy is strategic, goal-focused, and unconventional. Your therapist needs to understand that feeling unmotivated isn't laziness. Procrastination isn't apathy about consequences. Feeling like your emotions are more intense than other people's isn't a mood disorder. And struggling to keep up with the demands of daily life is absolutely not stupidity.
Part of your therapy is helping you understand those truths, too.
I am extensively trained in ADHD counseling. I get your brain (yup, I'm a club member too). Targeted ADHD therapy can help you learn skills that make your daily life easier. My goals are to help you leave each session with a new strategy to try, to help you understand how to work with your ADHD brain instead of against it, and to reduce the shame people with ADHD so often feel about their symptoms.
And because ADHD frequently travels with friends, I also treat related issues with an ADHD-informed mindset: insomnia and other sleep issues, chronic illness and chronic pain, anxiety, depression, OCD, PTSD, and more. Whether you're a first-time therapy participant or an old pro, I'll work with you to find new strategies you haven't tried before. I am autism, sensory processing disorder, and trauma informed, meaning I understand how those differences shape your needs and your treatment.
- I love your ADHD brain, and I want you to love it, too.

What was your path to becoming a mental health provider?
I always had a desire to understand people and didn't realize there was a profession centered around my curiosity until college. I was also very intrigued with trying to understand my emotions growing up and because I struggled, I developed a desire to help others through their life challenges. I started providing support services to families and volunteers through a mentoring agency, which later led to interning at a psychiatric outpatient facility, to working with foster children providing therapy and to also growing my private practice here with Alma working with adults and children.
What should someone know about working with you?
I believe I am relatable and open to the sharing of myself with the understanding and expectation that you will be entrusting your vulnerabilities with me in session. I will challenge your thoughts, your patterns and your assumptions, and I give homework routinely as an extension of our time together to keep you active and engaged until we meet again.
How do you continue learning and building new skills?
I am committed to being a life-long learner. I take courses and trainings annually, listen to and learn from seasoned clinicians and try to stay afloat of new groundbreaking research related to treatments and techniques surrounding mental health.
"Success for me, is helping others create the wellness they desire."

Do you ever feel stuck in your relationships or find yourself repeating patterns that leave you feeling disconnected, overwhelmed, or unsure of how to move forward? You may understand what you want to change but still find yourself responding in familiar ways. I believe these patterns often make sense when we take time to understand where they come from.
My work is grounded in attachment and relational approaches. I enjoy helping clients explore how past experiences, relationships, and beliefs about themselves influence the way they connect with others. Together, we can work toward greater self-understanding, stronger boundaries, healthier communication, and more meaningful relationships.
I bring Master’s degrees in Clinical Mental Health Counseling and Special Education, along with over 10 years of experience in trauma and addiction counseling. I work with children, adolescents, adults, couples, and families navigating concerns such as trauma, anxiety, depression, ADHD, relationship and family challenges, identity, and life transitions. My style is warm, collaborative, and compassionate, and I draw from attachment-based, psychodynamic, strengths-based, mindfulness, somatic, and cognitive-behavioral approaches.
As a biracial therapist with African American and Norwegian heritage, I value the ways culture, identity, and lived experiences shape our relationships and sense of self. I strive to create a space where you can feel seen, understood, and accepted as you are. I also offer therapy in both English and Norwegian.
