Ameliorate Counseling, PLLC

LPC-Associate

Clients I Work With

Does it feel like life is happening to you instead of you being able to choose what's happening? It feels like you've settled into a life that isn't fulfilling. Are you done holding yourself back? I help women who were raised as perfectionistic people-pleasers learn to confidently embrace their identity.

Approach

In our sessions we'll take a look at where you currently are and begin to work on identifying the root of the problem. I help with providing clarity to your cultural identity so that you can begin to understand the different forms of yourself and how it all connects.

Beliefs & Lived Experience

As your therapist, I'm here to support you in discovering your true identity, encouraging you to find your own voice and rekindle your passion for life.

More About My Practice

I provide virtual sessions for residents of Texas, offering the flexibility necessary for care. "Ameliorate" means "to make a bad or unpleasant situation better" which is what I hope to offer my clients when they work with me. I believe that healing can take many forms, and I only hope to help you grow in a meaningful way.
