“I am committed to helping clients heal from their trauma(s), and addiction, while helping them move towards resilience, finding purpose and living the life they want to live.”

I am a counselor at Innova Recovery, specializing in trauma, crisis, and addiction with a focus on informed care, psychological research, and program development. I earned my Ph.D. in Counseling and Psychological Studies with a specialization in Trauma and Crisis from Regent University, my Master of Arts in Counseling from The University of Texas at San Antonio, and my Bachelor of Science in Psychology from The University of North Texas-Denton.

My approach to counseling is holistic, addressing the mind, body, and spirit to promote healing and resilience. I draw from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT) to help clients work through trauma and addiction, guiding them toward finding purpose and living the life they want to live.

Outside of my professional work, I love spending time with my son and enjoying mother-daughter time, which includes hours of dance rehearsals and preparing for competitions. I also find joy in traveling, making people laugh, and spending time with friends and family.
