I created Empower Mental Health to provide a truly safe and authentic space for adults, couples, and families to heal. My specialty lies in walking alongside those navigating the weight of anxiety, depression, and complex trauma.<\/p>\n<p>My professional path is rooted in a long-standing belief that everyone deserves to feel seen and supported during life\u2019s most difficult moments. Since becoming licensed in 2013, I have gained extensive experience working with diverse individuals within child welfare, juvenile justice, and adult justice systems. This background allows me to bring a deeply human perspective to clinical care.<\/div>\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\n\t\t[\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row content_placement=&#8221;middle&#8221; el_id=&#8221;ab_rowx&#8221; woodmart_css_id=&#8221;69d571589d536&#8243; responsive_spacing=&#8221;eyJwYXJhbV90eXBlIjoid29vZG1hcnRfcmVzcG9uc2l2ZV9zcGFjaW5nIiwic2VsZWN0b3JfaWQiOiI2OWQ1NzE1ODlkNTM2Iiwic2hvcnRjb2RlIjoidmNfcm93IiwiZGF0YSI6eyJ0YWJsZXQiOnt9LCJtb2JpbGUiOnt9fX0=&#8221; mobile_bg_img_hidden=&#8221;no&#8221; tablet_bg_img_hidden=&#8221;no&#8221; woodmart_parallax=&#8221;0&#8243; woodmart_gradient_switch=&#8221;no&#8221; woodmart_box_shadow=&#8221;no&#8221; wd_z_index=&#8221;no&#8221; woodmart_disable_overflow=&#8221;0&#8243; row_reverse_mobile=&#8221;0&#8243; row_reverse_tablet=&#8221;0&#8243; css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1775592408855{margin-top: 60px !important;margin-bottom: 60px !important;}&#8221;][vc_column]\n\t\t<div id=\"wd-6a0e01e52b096\" class=\"title-wrapper wd-wpb wd-set-mb reset-last-child  wd-rs-6a0e01e52b096 wd-title-color-default wd-title-style-default text-left  wd-title-empty wd-underline-colored\">\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t<div class=\"liner-continer\">\n\t\t\t\t<h4 class=\"woodmart-title-container title  wd-font-weight-600 wd-fontsize-l\" ><\/h4>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"title-after_title reset-last-child  wd-fontsize-xs\">Based in Las Vegas, I primarily offer private virtual sessions to help you find healing from the comfort and privacy of your own space. My goal is to help you understand the ``why`` behind your struggles and look beyond just your symptoms. By focusing on your inherent strengths, we work together to help you reclaim control and move toward lasting, intentional change.<\/div>\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t<ul class=\" wd-rs-6a0dffdb36849 wd-list wd-wpb color-scheme- wd-fontsize-xs wd-type-image wd-style-default text-left \" id=\"wd-6a0dffdb36849\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<li>\n\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"wd-icon\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"30\" height=\"32\" src=\"https:\/\/demolinks2.com\/empower-mental-health\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/Vector-2.png\" class=\"attachment-full size-full\" alt=\"\" \/><\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"wd-list-content list-content\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tLicensed Clinical Social Worker since 2013\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t<\/li>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/ul>\n\t\t\n\t\t<ul class=\" wd-rs-6a0dffe6b12dd wd-list wd-wpb color-scheme- wd-fontsize-xs wd-type-image wd-style-default text-left \" id=\"wd-6a0dffe6b12dd\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<li>\n\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"wd-icon\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"38\" height=\"38\" src=\"https:\/\/demolinks2.com\/empower-mental-health\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/Clip-path-group-1.png\" class=\"attachment-full size-full\" alt=\"\" \/><\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"wd-list-content list-content\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tDecade of experience with diverse and vulnerable populations\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t<\/li>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/ul>\n\t\t\n\t\t<ul class=\" wd-rs-6a0dffef835ab wd-list wd-wpb color-scheme- wd-fontsize-xs wd-type-image wd-style-default text-left \" id=\"wd-6a0dffef835ab\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<li>\n\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"wd-icon\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"28\" height=\"27\" src=\"https:\/\/demolinks2.com\/empower-mental-health\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/Group-1577717986-1.png\" class=\"attachment-full size-full\" alt=\"\" \/><\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"wd-list-content list-content\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tSpecialist in trauma-informed care and evidence-based modalities\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t<\/li>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/ul>\n\t\t[\/vc_column][\/vc_row]<\/p>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>[vc_row content_placement=&#8221;middle&#8221; el_id=&#8221;ab_rowx&#8221; woodmart_css_id=&#8221;69d571589d536&#8243; responsive_spacing=&#8221;eyJwYXJhbV90eXBlIjoid29vZG1hcnRfcmVzcG9uc2l2ZV9zcGFjaW5nIiwic2VsZWN0b3JfaWQiOiI2OWQ1NzE1ODlkNTM2Iiwic2hvcnRjb2RlIjoidmNfcm93IiwiZGF0YSI6eyJ0YWJsZXQiOnt9LCJtb2JpbGUiOnt9fX0=&#8221; mobile_bg_img_hidden=&#8221;no&#8221; tablet_bg_img_hidden=&#8221;no&#8221; woodmart_parallax=&#8221;0&#8243; woodmart_gradient_switch=&#8221;no&#8221; woodmart_box_shadow=&#8221;no&#8221; wd_z_index=&#8221;no&#8221; woodmart_disable_overflow=&#8221;0&#8243; row_reverse_mobile=&#8221;0&#8243; row_reverse_tablet=&#8221;0&#8243; css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1775592408855{margin-top: 60px !important;margin-bottom: 60px !important;}&#8221;][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/2&#8243;][\/vc_column][vc_column<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"parent":0,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-10","page","type-page","status-publish","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/demolinks2.com\/empower-mental-health\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/10","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/demolinks2.com\/empower-mental-health\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/demolinks2.com\/empower-mental-health\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/page"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/demolinks2.com\/empower-mental-health\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/demolinks2.com\/empower-mental-health\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=10"}],"version-history":[{"count":12,"href":"https:\/\/demolinks2.com\/empower-mental-health\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/10\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":258,"href":"https:\/\/demolinks2.com\/empower-mental-health\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/10\/revisions\/258"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/demolinks2.com\/empower-mental-health\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=10"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
