Therapy for Anxiety, Burnout, and Childhood Trauma in High-Achieving Adults
As a trauma therapist for anxiety and first-gen professionals, I specialize in helping high-achieving adults heal at the root. I offer trauma therapy that’s emotion-focused, culturally responsive, and deeply effective. Our work will begin with what’s urgent—your anxiety, your exhaustion, your self-doubt—and gently uncover the deeper patterns driving them.

A Therapist Who’s Walked This Path
As a trauma therapist for anxiety and first-gen professionals in Texas, I created Saname to be the kind of therapy space I needed: a place where ambition, culture, family dynamics, and healing could coexist. A place where being the strong one didn’t mean being alone.
Saname is grounded in the values of Belonging, Community, Growth, and Excellence—and I bring those into every session.
I’ve been honored to receive the Corpus Christi 40 Under 40 Award and the Circle of Pride Award for leadership and advocacy. I bring the same heart, clarity, and commitment into every therapy session.
