Having experienced personal trauma and life's challenges, I am passionate about creating a safe and compassionate space where clients feel understood, supported, and empowered to heal.
I am a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner with 4 years of experience in mental health care. I specialize in supporting individuals facing challenges such as anxiety, depression, trauma, mood disorders, and life transitions. I combine evidence-based medication management with supportive therapy to promote healing and long-term well-being. I am dedicated to creating a compassionate, client-centered environment where individuals feel heard, understood, and empowered in their journey toward mental health.
I earned my Master’s in Nursing from Walden University, where I developed a strong commitment to evidence-based care and holistic treatment. My approach blends medication management with supportive therapy to address each client’s unique needs, build coping strategies, and foster resilience and stability.
Taking the first step toward mental health care can feel overwhelming, but it is also an important act of strength. My goal is to provide thoughtful, personalized support that empowers you to move forward with confidence. If you’re ready to begin your path toward greater stability and well-being, I encourage you to schedule an appointment.

I know how heavy life can feel, and through my personal experiences with loss and anxiety and my professional work supporting others, I’ve learned that healing, growth, and empowerment are possible.
I love helping all people navigate anxiety and the ups and downs of everyday life—because let's be honest, it can get a little chaotic. I aim to create a space that feels supportive, nonjudgmental, and real, where you can be yourself. Along the way, I'll help you gain insight, build tools, and maybe even share a few laughs as you grow into the version of yourself you're working toward.
My approach is warm, person-centered, and empathetic. I use trauma-focused care, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Motivational Interviewing, and solution-focused techniques to help clients understand themselves and build healthier ways of coping. I especially enjoy supporting individuals navigating anxiety, life transitions, low self-esteem, and trauma.
No matter where you are in your journey, you don't have to navigate life's challenges alone. Healing, growth, and change are possible. Taking the first step toward therapy can feel overwhelming, but it can also be the beginning of meaningful transformation. When you're ready, I would be honored to support you as you move toward healing and personal growth.
You deserve dedicated time with a mental health professional — it can be life-changing.

Therapy for men maintains a focus on the emotional and mental impacts of being a man in society, dealing with issues like the pressures of toxic masculinity and the traditional familial roles of men, among others. Thriveworks The Woodlands therapists who specialize in treating men work to create a safe space for them to emote and care for their mental well-being without fear of judgment.
Therapy for men has many aspects of traditional psychotherapy, but it also maintains a clear person-centered and humanistic approach. Thriveworks The Woodlands therapists will work with men to reach their therapy goals through self-reflection and introspection—uncovering specific emotional, behavioral, and mental patterns that are having a negative effect or are inhibiting personal growth and slowly working to change them over time.
Therapy for men at Thriveworks is conducted both in person and online by video. We encourage you to choose the option that works best for you.
Therapy for men can last for a few months or occur over the course of years, often continuing until the client feels that their goals are met and their desired growth has been achieved. However, it will likely last at least five months, as that is the average amount of time it takes for the therapeutic process to take effect and bring about lasting change.
Counseling for men at Thriveworks in The Woodlands is built to help you gain a deeper understanding of what is going on in your life and give you the action steps to heal, grow, and succeed in the ways you have imagined for yourself.

Whatever you are facing, Thriveworks The Woodlands promises to be client-centered and nonjudgmental. Our clients come in facing problems from college graduation to messy divorces to trauma. Nothing you bring in will be too big or too small for our The Woodlands counselors.
Our goal is not to tell you what to do or make all your problems disappear, but to be by your side as we problem solve and heal together. Sometimes, all you need is a little space to simply be- to process, sit, and explore.
Other times, you need more advanced therapeutic techniques to help you. Our The Woodlands therapists are trained and excellent in both.
Many of the therapeutic techniques you will encounter in a Counseling for Men session can be found in other topic-specific sessions. It’s how our counselors apply these techniques that will be different. Society has taught you to push away emotions, think practically, and fill the role you’ve been assigned.
Thriveworks in The Woodlands thinks society has no place telling you how to think, feel, and live. When the expectations of society are weighing heavily on you, we can help lift some of the load. Taking a step back and acknowledging the stereotypes you’re expected to fit into is often the first step in finding your freedom.
Any issue can be address in Counseling for Men, but some are more common than others. A few of the more common situations we see in Men’s Counseling include:
Just as your physical or financial health is important enough to dedicate time and energy towards them, your mental and emotional health is just as important in living a healthy, well balanced, and fulfilling life. It can seem impossible to juggle them all, but our counselors in The Woodlands are here to teach you how and encourage you every step of the way!
You have the power to make yourself into the person you want to be. The path society has set for you doesn’t have to be the path you follow. For more information, or to schedule an appointment today, give us a call at 281-667-9790.
