It does not take great strength to do things, but it requires great strength to decide on what to do. ~ Elbert Hubbard

I am a licensed psychologist in Houston. In person and Telehealth appointments are available.

 There are new and ever changing stressors during the Coronavirus pandemic. Now more than ever we are facing stress, anxiety, worry, and conflicts with others. So now is a perfect time to reach out for help to navigate the current crisis at hand. We have never faced something like this, so I can assure you, you aren't alone. Stress and difficult emotions can leave us overwhelmed and blindsided. I offer assistance by helping you with strategies for coping.

Are you looking to understand yourself better and improve your quality of life?  But this feels overwhelming and you don't know where to start? It's hard to navigate difficult life situations on your own. Stress and difficult emotions can leave you blindsided. My passion and mission is to help you improve your life with solutions that work for you. I provide you with a warm, culturally sensitive, supportive therapeutic environment, to help you recognize your strengths and grow through personal difficulties.
