Find a therapist in Oklahoma — covered by insurance

I’m a licensed psychologist with over 30 years of experience helping adults navigate anxiety, trauma, depression, ADHD, bipolar disorder, and life transitions. My style is warm, supportive, and down‐to‐earth—I believe real healing happens when you feel safe to be yourself. I draw from Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help you find practical ways to manage stress, build confidence, and move forward. My goal is to meet you where you are and work together toward a calmer, more balanced life. I do not prescribe medication.

I focus on improving life satisfaction rather than just reducing symptoms, offering a compassionate ear, coping skills, relational techniques, and strategies for lifestyle changes. I provide counseling in English, Portuguese, and Spanish, working with teens aged 13 and older, adults, and couples. I can help with depression, anxiety, trauma, romantic and family relationships, parenting, and identity issues.

I’m a person-centered therapist who believes therapy is about helping you come back to yourself. I aim to create a space that’s warm, honest, and affirming, where you don’t have to shrink or overexplain who you are. My experience lies mainly in supporting folks who may be navigating anxiety, depression, and ADHD, pre- and postpartum mental health. We’ll work together in a way that feels practical and empowering. With a deep commitment to meeting people where they are, I would love to support you while you take a step toward enhancing your health and wellness.

It is my complete passion to see you healthy and whole. Together, we can journey to reach your goals to heal from past traumas, troubles, depression, and rejection. I provide a safe space for you to share and work through your deepest shame, guilt, fears, desires, dreams, and more. I am here, without judgment, to help you become the best version of yourself. Help is just steps away.

Currently accepting adult clients of any age, including seniors, with a focus on trauma, including domestic violence (including emotional, verbal, and financial abuse), sexual abuse/assault, religious trauma/cults, and various sources of PTSD. I have experience in working with various other traumas, not limited to those listed.

I focus on the wholeness of a person emotionally, physically, and spiritually. If my clients prefer, I can provide an effortless Biblical approach. I also enjoy using mindfulness along with CBT in sessions as well. Personally, I enjoy social gatherings in my city, singing in choir, spending time with family and friends and learning about random health topics. I am a mother of two toddlers and I have been married for nearly 7 years.

I’m passionate about helping clients navigate anxiety, depression, life challenges and transitions, identity, grief and loss, and relational challenges with compassion and practical support. I utilize evidence based treatment depending on your needs and treatment goals. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor with eight years of experience in community mental health in Oklahoma, where I provided individual therapy, group therapy, and crisis intervention. I hold a BA in Psychology from Harding University and an MA in Clinical Psychology from Wheaton College. Before returning to the U.S. in 2023, I lived abroad in France and North Africa for over seven years, an experience that deepened my understanding of culture, transition, and resilience.

After four decades of psychiatric nursing, I transitioned to become a psychiatric nurse practitioner because I am passionate about providing mental health counseling to help people live their best lives. My experience encompasses working with a diverse range of patients facing both acute and chronic mental and behavioral health conditions. In my spare time, I enjoy various fiber arts, and spending time outdoors playing in the dirt. I am married to an amazing man who retired after a long career as a psychiatric social worker. Together, we have seven children and nine absolutely incredible grandchildren.

Imagine what life would be like if you had the space to explore the nuances of the struggles you've been battling. Making the decision to seek professional help is probably one that you have been pondering over for awhile. I specialize in working with multicultural individuals, in particular with South Asian/Middle Eastern natives, as well as those affected by chronic illnesses, issues related to parenting, immigration, and spirituality.

I am passionate about helping individuals and couples through challenging times. I would love to walk with you on your journey and will meet you where you’re at with compassion and empathy. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor in the state of Oklahoma and hold a Master of Science degree with an emphasis in Clinical Mental Health.
