About
As a daughter, friend, sister, mother, grandmother, and person who has experienced many of life's stressors, I bring compassion and a desire to understand my clients to each session. I value the importance of the therapeutic alliance and endeavor to make our sessions as therapeutic as possible.
I am passionate about supporting teens, adults, and couples in Texas reduce anxiety, manage stress, and build resilience. I offer a warm, direct, and honest approach focused on addressing symptoms such as chronic worry, emotional overwhelm, relationship stress, and difficulty setting boundaries using practical strategies. I also provide Christian faith-based counseling upon request.
I completed my Master's in Clinical Mental Health Counseling with a 4.0 GPA over five years ago. I am also credentialed as a Master Certified Professional Coach (MCPC) and was previously Board Certified as a National Certified Counselor by the NBCC.

I am a licensed professional counselor associate (LPCA) with 7 years of experience supporting individuals, couples, and families through emotional and relational challenges. I specialize in treating anxiety, depression, grief, trauma, relationship concerns, communication difficulties, eating disorders, and life stressors. I am passionate about helping clients recognize their strengths, gain new perspectives, and feel more empowered in their daily lives.
I earned my master’s degree in marriage and family therapy from Abilene Christian University. My therapeutic approach is collaborative and individualized, drawing from cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, solution-focused therapy, narrative therapy, and motivational interviewing to help clients build practical tools for lasting change.

I believe therapy should be a space where you feel genuinely seen and where we can be real about what’s happening while building practical tools to create meaningful change in your life.
I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and therapist with experience supporting adults and teens navigating anxiety, relationship challenges, life transitions, burnout, self-esteem, and feeling stuck or overwhelmed. I often work with clients who appear capable and successful on the outside but are struggling internally or repeating patterns they’re ready to change. My clients are often seeking greater clarity, healthier relationships, stronger boundaries, emotional balance, and a deeper understanding of themselves so they can move forward with confidence and intention.
I take a direct, supportive, and collaborative approach to therapy, combining evidence-based strategies with honest conversation and practical tools you can use outside of sessions. Together, we identify patterns, strengthen coping skills and boundaries, and build greater self-awareness so you can create lasting, meaningful change.
You don’t have to have everything figured out before starting therapy. Whether you’re feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or simply ready for something to change, I’ll meet you where you are and help you move forward with clarity and intention. When you’re ready, I invite you to schedule an appointment and take that next step for yourself.

My go-to approach for helping people in teen counseling is to get to know them, validate that what they are experiencing is important, and speak in a manner that makes them feel comfortable. I find the best benefit in listening because it can empower others who may not have experienced having a voice. Teens are on the brink of becoming adults and may struggle with speaking out.
I teach the following tools in teen counseling:
I know a client is making meaningful progress in teen counseling when they express and/or display feeling more in control of their situation. Also, developing, practicing, and using coping skills as a norm can mark meaningful progress.
Clients can supplement their time in teen counseling with some type of journaling. This can get thoughts out of someone's head and in a place for consideration or just to hold for future discussion. Journaling can provide insight into a situation that could be missed by just thinking about it. Lastly, journaling is a great way to keep track of different situations and then bring them to sessions.
To prepare for their first teen counseling session, a teen can consider why they are coming to therapy and what they would like to get from therapy. Another thing to consider is how will they know therapy is helpful. Lastly, consider what questions can be asked and answered or points to bring up that will help build rapport and trust between the teen and the clinician.
Teen counseling helps young individuals better understand and manage the challenges that affect their mental health. Common challenges amongst teens include anxiety, depression, ADHD, and problematic relationships with food.
Teen counseling works by using multiple techniques, tailored to fit the teen’s unique needs — based on their age group, their challenges, and the severity of their challenges. It might involve cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, art therapy, and others for varying ages. In any case, Thriveworks teen therapists in Bastrop have the expertise and experience to help young individuals at their level.
Signs that teens might need Teen counseling can be very subjective, as they are experiencing many changes and can have intense reactions to them. As parents, you know your child best and are best equipped to judge whether certain reactions are standard behaviors for your teen or whether they might be hinting at a larger problem. Even so, there are a few common signs and events that often point to a need for therapy, such as experiencing divorce or loss, grief, consistent low moods, teens distancing themselves and becoming isolated, losing interest in hobbies, excessive anger or irritability, substance use issues, and suicidal ideation, among others.
Teen counseling providers at Thriveworks in Bastrop, TX offer both in person and online therapy by video. We encourage you to choose the option that works best for you.
The length of teen counseling depends on your teen’s needs as well as the goals that you and their therapist might have for them. Generally, teen counseling sessions will last for several months.
Includes individual, couples, child/ teen, & family therapy
