“Creating Space for Healing, Connection, and Growth” (Texas Virtual Therapy)
Honoring Your Story While Supporting Your Healing
Therapy is a normal and healthy form of care, much like going to a doctor when you have a cold or seeing a specialist when something doesn’t feel quite right. You don’t have to be in crisis or “at your worst” to benefit from therapy. Many people come to therapy to better understand themselves, navigate stress, strengthen relationships, or get support during life transitions. Seeking therapy is not a sign of weakness; it’s a proactive step toward caring for your emotional well-being and overall health.
Therapy supports you in navigating life’s challenges with more clarity, confidence, and self-compassion. I walk alongside you using evidence-based, relational approaches tailored to your unique story and goals.
“Healing happens best when we connect as people, not just as roles, and I will walk alongside you, not above you.”
You may be feeling overwhelmed, emotionally drained, or stuck in patterns that no longer feel like you. Perhaps you’re carrying the weight of family expectations, navigating relationship challenges, or trying to balance who you are with who you’ve always been expected to be. If you’re tired of holding it all together on your own, you’re not alone and you’re in the right place. With a strong educational foundation, research experience, and years of working with diverse populations, I offer a supportive, culturally responsive space for adults, couples, and families to explore what’s been weighing on them and begin the healing process.
My Approach to Working with Clients
A strong connection between therapist and client is essential for meaningful therapy, which is why I place great importance on building rapport and fostering a genuine therapeutic alliance. Therapy is most effective when the relationship works both ways, and it’s normal that sometimes a connection may not fully develop. In those cases, I follow ethical guidelines and the principle of least harm, which may involve referring you to another therapist or ending services to ensure you receive the best possible support. Likewise, if you feel that our partnership isn’t the right fit, it’s completely okay to end the relationship—this is not taken personally. The most important thing is that we both feel aligned and comfortable, because therapy only works when there is mutual trust, respect, and connection.
