Therapy for first-generation professional women navigating anxiety, burnout, and identity strain in high-demand careers and relationships.
You’ve built a life that looks steady and successful on the outside, but internally, it may feel like constant pressure, overthinking, and emotional exhaustion.
You’ve worked hard to get where you are. You’re capable, responsible, and used to holding things together.

If this feels familiar, therapy can be a place to slow down, make sense of what’s happening internally, and begin building something more sustainable.
In our work together, we focus on helping you move from chronic internal pressure to greater clarity, stability, and self-connection.
Common areas of focus include:
Therapy is not about becoming less ambitious, it’s about helping your life feel more aligned and less internally exhausting.

I work with first-generation professional women across Texas and Missouri who are navigating anxiety, burnout, and identity pressure in high-demand careers and relationships.
As a Licensed Professional Counselor Supervisor (LPC-S) and Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist Supervisor (LMFT-S), I bring both clinical experience and a relational perspective to the therapy process.
My approach is grounded, collaborative, and focused on helping you understand your internal experience, reduce emotional overwhelm, and build a life that feels more steady and aligned.
For high-achieving women experiencing burnout, anxiety, and emotional exhaustion in demanding careers and relationships.
For LPC Associates building toward licensure and private practice. Focus includes clinical development, confidence-building, and practice growth.
ESA evaluations, psychological documentation, and self-paced CEU courses for professionals and clinicians.
