Background:

My academic journey began at the University of Houston Downtown where my interests evolved towards the social sciences, leading me to explore various therapy niches. I
wanted to become a therapist to help those struggling with anxiety, burnout, stress, and overthinking since I have worked through these areas myself; but I also discovered sex therapy along the way. Eventually, I obtained a master’s degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Lamar University and now serve clients in all these areas, plus more!

I am a trained Certified Sex Therapist (CST) from the National Sex Therapy Institute, collaborating with adults and couples facing diverse concerns. As a sex therapist, I have further therapeutic techniques and knowledge on intimacy building, ED/PE, sexual health, and mismatched/low desire to name a few. My expertise extends to Ethical Non-Monogamy, and Alternative Lifestyles/Interests.

Approach:

I am a holistic Solutions-Focused and Person-Centered Counselor who employs a versatile range of treatment approaches to personalize the therapy experience to each unique person’s specific needs and personal goals. This may draw from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Grounding and Mindfulness-Based Techniques, Solutions Focused Brief Therapy (SFBT) and various Sex Therapy applications.

My goal is to help you through your therapeutic journey and to offer you a space to be open and understood. I want my clients to feel heard, supported, and accepted; while at the same time empowered to work through and reach their goals. The first brave step is taking the chance!

Fun Facts:

• I spend quality time with my spouse Nick whom I’ve been with since 2003 and our two
  furry tail-wagging companions.

• As a member of a Craft Beer Girl’s Group, I enjoy exploring Houston’s breweries.
