I am a board certified and Christian psychologist with a passion for helping others have a change of heart in order to think, grow, and live! As a Christian psychologist, I use these values to foster a genuine, compassionate, accepting, and truthful style of relating to others. My areas of specialty include relationship distress, depression and anxiety resulting from interpersonal conflict, adjustment to life transitions, grief, and spirituality and daily living.
I am a proud graduate of Xavier University of Louisiana, earning a Bachelor of Science (BS) degree in psychology. I went on to earn a Master of Science (MS) degree in Counseling and Doctor of Philosophy (PhD) from the University of North Texas. My clinical training includes an APA-accredited predoctoral internship and postdoctoral residency with an emphasis in couple and family therapy at the Dallas VA Medical Center. Before transitioning into full-time practice, I worked as a staff psychologist at the Dallas VA and assistant professor of psychiatry at UT Southwestern Medical Center.
In my free time, I love spending time with my family and friends, crafting home décor, and serving in my church and community. A proud Dallas, Texas native, I also enjoy watching and supporting Dallas sports teams.
