I am currently a Licensed Psychologist in the state of Texas (#38228). I am also the proud owner and founder of Paradise Psychology, PLLC. I earned my Doctor of Psychology (PsyD) degree in 2015 from Wright State University’s School of Professional Psychology in Dayton, OH. Prior to relocating to Texas, I completed my postdoctoral training at The Center for Psychology in Fort Myers, FL. In November 2025, I received Authority to Practice Interjurisdictional Telepsychology (APIT) in all PsyPact participating states. I am also in the process of obtaining independent licensure in Michigan.

My specialties include the treatment of anxiety disorders, trauma, and helping parents/caregivers manage unwanted behaviors displayed by their children. Many of my clients also strive to improve their interpersonal relationships through open communication and setting effective boundaries. I am passionate about helping individuals overcome burnout, as well as process grief related to the loss of a loved one, sudden unemployment, ended relationships, or recent medical diagnoses.

I enjoy spending time with my spouse and our two cats, Honey and Luna. I also enjoy strolling through the local botanic garden. On cold or rainy days, you’ll find me streaming the latest K-Drama, crafting, or playing RPG/Farm Sim games on the Nintendo Switch.
