It takes courage to choose to take a step toward change, healing and awakening. I see it as an honor and deep privilege to be able to provide a safe, warm, accepting environment for which greater clarity, joy and fulfillment can arise. I will walk with you, co-creating a path forward to first recognize that which you want to create and then to manifest that into your experience.

Since the age of 9, I’ve been pulled by this strong force to access wisdom and connect with something higher than this tangible world. This gnawing passion has led me to study the power of the mind and how to create what our souls truly desire.
I’ve been blessed to study ancient technologies such as yoga and breathwork and am so passionate about sharing simple tools to effect real change.

I was trained in counseling at University of North Texas, receiving my Masters in Counseling. My favorite courses were transpersonal counseling and stress reduction through movement. I am currently a Licensed Professional Counselor in the state of Texas with 5 years of experience.

I’m also a certified yoga teacher and trained at the Shri Kali ashram in India. The types of yoga I teach focus on activating the parasympathetic nervous system to release the whole self from the ever vigilant fight or flight mode a lot of us find ourselves in on a constant basis to survive in this modern culture.

I work with teens and adults and some specialties include anxiety, depression, grief, life transitions, trauma, stress management, chronic illness and spiritual issues.
In the therapy session, my main intent is to be fully present with you, free of judgment; to Become a spacious environment in which you can explore your own truth and start to shed the layers that no longer serve.
In addition to talk therapy sessions, I offer yoga psychotherapy sessions as well as energy work healing sessions.

I look forward to sharing this journey with you!
