M.S, LPC, LCDC

Are you feeling overwhelmed by past hurts, or unsure why your patterns keep repeating despite your efforts to change? Maybe you’ve faced relational trauma, addiction, or the unique pressures of being a first-generation adult, and you long to feel understood. You want a safe space where your experiences, especially as someone who is neurodivergent, from the BIPOC and/or LGBTQIA+ community, are honored and where you can find clarity, healing, and hope for a life that feels truly yours. Many of my clients are autistic, and having an autistic spouse has deepened my understanding of neurodivergent communication, sensory needs, and relational dynamics. My approach is neuro-affirming, trauma-informed, and grounded in compassion and curiosity. I will support you in discovering new ways to relate to yourself and others at your own pace. Together, we’ll explore your responses as meaningful parts of your story using evidence-based approaches like parts work and EMDR. If you live in Fort Worth, TX, or prefer online sessions within Texas, reach out for a free 15-minute consultation. Your healing matters, and you don’t have to do this alone.
