Before becoming a counselor, I spent years studying music performance and teaching in my own studio. That background taught me how to truly listen—not just to words, but to tone, rhythm, and what sits beneath the surface. Over time, I felt pulled toward a deeper calling: walking alongside people through life’s hardest chapters. I earned my Master’s in Counselling Psychology in 2016 and have spent the years since supporting adults through trauma, grief, anxiety, and complex life transitions.

In my work, I believe pain deserves deep reverence. I enter every session with the mindset of "taking off my shoes" before stepping into another person's story. That is why Accelerated Resolution Therapy (ART) has become such a cornerstone of my practice. Many of the people I work with are exhausted from talking around their pain or dread the idea of having to relive every painful detail out loud. ART offers a gentle, structured way to help your nervous system release what has been stuck—allowing you to keep the facts of your story while shedding the emotional charge and intrusive images that hold you back.

Through Sike & Spirit Counseling, I provide virtual therapy to adults across Texas. My goal is always to create a warm, collaborative space where you feel deeply respected, safe in your own skin, and in full control of your healing.
