I am the owner and Executive Director of Salient Clinical Services – a company created to provide optimal clinical, evaluative, and consulting services. I am also a nationally recognized speaker; having given multiple talks and workshops on the topics of mentorship, relationships, LGBTQ+ Ally-Development, and Cultural Responsiveness. Additionally, I have published several book chapters and peer-reviewed manuscripts on addiction, trauma, mentorship, and grief.

I was born and raised in Houston, Texas by two strong Black women. Being a person of color with same-sex parents came with a few struggles, but it drove my passion to make a change in the lives of those who face inequality. I found courage within myself to actualize my dream and now I can proudly say I am a Licensed Professional Counselor-Associate (under the supervision of Dr. Stacy Speedlin Gonzalez).

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor-Associate under the supervision of Christopher Leeth, PhD, LPC-S. I am a Corpus Christi transplant and a UTSA alumna with a BA in Psychology with Highest Honors and International Distinction and a MS in Clinical Mental Health Counseling (mind readings available for a small fee of $1 million, listening ear is free). I constantly expand my repertoire of counseling skills and psychological know-how by staying abreast of current literature and techniques in counseling to provide evidence-based care to clients.

I’m a proud first-generation graduate from The University of Texas at San Antonio (Go ‘Runners!). I have a bachelor’s degree in Multidisciplinary Studies with focus areas in psychology, political science, and communications, and recently graduated with a Master of Science in Clinical Mental Health Counseling. I am an LPC-Associate under the supervision of Leigh Rainwater LPC-S. I primarily work with children, adolescents, and families, and I believe that this population faces many challenges as they are learning and striving to meet certain expectations every day.
