About

Welcome to Prosper Health!! I'm excited that you were brave enough to seek support from a mental health professional. Because I know sometimes, it's difficult to make this decision, I i try to create a warm and accepting environment for my clients. I treat each person with respect and dignity.  We can work together to discover solutions to your current life challenges.  I have over 15 years of clinical experience and I'm licensed to practice in Texas.

Education & Licensure
Ph.D. in Counseling Psychology, University of Houston, M.A. Counseling Loyola University Chicago
Treatment Approach
What motivated you to specialize in working with autistic adults?

During my predoctoral internship, I began working with children with autism. By helping them, develop social skills and tools to navigate their world, I developed a deep respect for the population. Later, I began working with adults with autism where I was able to help them with work, school, and interpersonal challenges. My goal is to continue to provide this support since many mental health agencies does not provide support in this area.

How do you bring a strengths-based, affirming approach to your client work?

Because of my clinical training, I focus on a client's inherent resources, resilience, and positive qualities rather than solely on deficits or psychopathology. This approach empowers individuals by identifying past successes, fostering self-efficacy, and building on existing coping resources.
