BECOME ANCHORED

Beginning my journey as a counseling intern has been an exciting and eye opening experience. I have always known that I am passionate about mental health but gaining first hand experience with real clients has shown me that I am also motivated to empower the people I work with overcome life’s hardships and achieve the life they want to live. Through my education in my masters’ program I am learning skills, theory, and academic knowledge. And through my personality and life experience I bring empathy, non-judgement, and a genuine curiosity about your experiences.

I strive to provide a space that is carefully crafted to accommodate each person’s unique needs while ensuring that my clients leave with practical tools to utilize out in the world.

I currently work with all age ranges, cultural backgrounds, and genders/sexual orientations. My specialties include anxiety, depression, suicidal ideation, sexuality exploration, and adolescent struggles. My therapeutic approach tends to focus on goal setting, mindfulness, and humanistic ideology-meaning that your story and your potential for growth matter most.

I am currently supervised by Emily Kipp and attending Lamar University for my MEd in Clinical Mental Health Counseling. My previous schooling includes a BA from Abilene Christian University in Youth and Family Ministry.

I am excited that you were brave enough to take the first step on your mental health journey and I look forward for what’s to come!
