Here to help you find serenity in life’s storms.
Fostering Resilience.
At Ignatius Counseling, I’ve got your back with mental health support tailored for high-performing leaders, first responders, and criminal justice pros. I help you tackle the heavy stuff—like carrying everyone else’s pain, feeling worn out from giving your all, or dealing with the job’s tough calls that clash with your core. I’m trained in EMDR, a proven method to shake loose the stress and baggage holding you down, so you can get back to thriving.
My mission? To create a space where you feel heard and backed up—somewhere you can recharge and build the grit to keep crushing it, no matter what life throws your way. Ready to strengthen your resilience? Let’s make it happen together.

In my former role as a Counseling Intern at LCS Counseling and Consulting Agency in Fort Worth, TX, I provided individual and group therapy sessions to adolescents and adults.

As the Director of the Center for Alcohol and Drug Education Studies (CADES) at the Texas A&M Transportation Institute (TTI), I lead efforts to enhance behavioral health outcomes and promote criminal desistance among individuals involved in the criminal justice system, with a particular emphasis on those charged with driving while intoxicated (DWI) offenses. My role involves designing educational curricula and delivering training to criminal justice professionals—such as law enforcement officers, judges, prosecutors, and Community Supervision and Corrections Department (CSCD) staff—on evidence-based practices, including mental health screening, assessments, and referral processes.
