Nice to meet you
I’m a compassionate Licensed Professional Counselor based in Dallas, Texas. I support young professionals, women of color, and college students navigating anxiety, identity development, women’s issues, cultural diversity, and relationships. With degrees from SMU and the University of Georgia, I bring experience in both higher ed and mental health to help clients through life transitions. As a relational, gestalt-oriented therapist, I work with clients to build self-awareness, explore patterns, and remove barriers to growth and wholeness.

Interests
Outside of work, I have a wide range of interests that keep me active and curious. I’m a red belt with a black stripe in Krav Maga—just one year away from earning my black belt—and I’ve recently started cross-training in Jiu-Jitsu (still rocking the white belt life). I dance and have even taught ballroom dancing. I’m passionate about languages: I'm a native English speaker, but I also speak Spanish and am currently learning Portuguese, Italian, and Greek. I’m also a lifelong music and instrument lover. My main instrument is French horn, which I’ve played for 27 years, and I can also play trumpet. Lately, I’ve been learning ukulele, guitar, and saxophone. I love traveling, anything related to Puerto Rico, and I have an irrational but deep love for banana Laffy Taffy.
