After we’ve had our initial consultation and determined it’s the right fit, we’ll begin individual counseling sessions. Ideally, we’ll start with weekly sessions to build rapport, identify therapeutic goals, explore and process experiences of life and self, and establish plans of care and action. As we progress and some or all of those goals have been met, we may discuss tapering services to every other week, and then possibly once a month, until we move into a maintenance (as needed) model, if that’s desired, or conclude therapy altogether.
There is no fixed timeline for growth or healing, so this process varies from client to client. Some clients find short-term therapy (4–12 sessions) helpful for specific focuses, while others engage in therapy for several months or years to explore deeper patterns, process grief, or navigate life transitions. We will work together to determine what feels right for you.

Online therapy and in-person therapy share many similarities and some key differences! Healing can and often does happen in either setting, but it’s important you decide what feels most helpful for you! My practice is exclusively online, so if this works for you, that’s wonderful, and if it doesn’t, I’d be happy to help provide some direction for locating an in-person therapist. Below, I’ve listed some pros and cons for each setting:
In-Person Therapy
Pros: a cozy office space, face-to-face contact and non-verbal communication, perhaps some complimentary coffee or tea, and a physical change of environment, which some find helpful for focus and transition into therapy
Cons: travel time, traffic, and the added logistics of commuting, being limited to therapists in your local area, and being in a space outside your home, which may or may not feel preferable to you
Online Therapy
Pros: convenience of no commuting, being in your own cozy home or personal space, access to a wider range of therapists across Texas, ability to meet during bad weather or illness outbreaks, and a great option if medical conditions, mobility, or other factors make in-person sessions difficult
Cons: limited to virtual communication, requires a private space where there may be risk for potential distractions, requires reliable internet and technology, and may not be ideal for all therapy approaches

I practice with cultural humility, continuous learning and unlearning, and a commitment to social justice both within and beyond the therapy room. I recognize that every client has been affected by the systems of oppression in this country, in ways that shape their experiences, opportunities, and sense of self, and I strive to create a space where clients feel seen, valued, and free to express themselves fully, on their own terms.
With an awareness of how historical and present-day injustices impact mental health, identity, and access to care, I hold space for clients to explore their experiences in ways that honor their autonomy and intersecting identities. I believe healing is not just personal but also deeply connected to the world around us, and I aim to support clients in navigating both.
