About

A native Texan, I received my Bachelors degree from University of Houston-Downtown and my Masters in Clinical Psychology from University of Houston-Clear Lake. I have worked with a diverse population of individuals in mental health settings, including gender-variant adults and children, sexual minorities, individuals with mood disorders, body-focused repetitive behaviors like trichotillomania, Autism Spectrum Disorder, and adults living with HIV.

I am most passionate about working with the LGBTQ+ community. I was fortunate enough to spend the first 5 years of my career at one of the nation’s largest queer counseling centers. Gender and sexuality are endlessly fascinating to me, and I take great pride in providing the highest level of queer-informed care. While I work with many clients in the process of coming out to self and others, my primary goal as a queer-informed counselor is to simply ensure that LGBTQ+ Washingtonians have a space for therapy where they don’t have to explain their sexuality or relationship style, worry about being misgendered, or “teach” their therapist about the community.
