Licensed Professional Counselor LIC# 85869 | EMDR Certified Therapist

With a rich background in education and counseling, I bring extensive experience and compassion to my practice. I spent six years as a teacher and five years as a school counselor before earning my master's degree from Texas A&M International University (TAMIU) and becoming a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC).

In 2022, I founded Rekindle Hope Counseling to provide empathetic and personalized care. We create a safe environment for individuals and families to explore their feelings and achieve their personal goals.

Outside of work, I cherish my family. I've been happily married since 2010 and am a proud father of two. This journey enriches my perspective and commitment to helping others find balance and fulfillment.
