Teletherapy for 75080

Are you feeling stressed and overwhelmed by life? I would love to help offer some new strategies. My goal is to provide a warm and encouraging environment for you to share your story and to help you find strength to overcome your struggles. Since we are all unique, I believe that counseling is not a “one size fits all” approach. I pull from multiple theories in order to tailor my guidance to fit each client.

Life can often be hard and unexpected challenges can happen to anyone. I believe that having the support of someone in our corner can help us discover our unique qualities so we can emerge from difficulties stronger than we ever thought possible. I will provide a compassionate and supportive environment while we embark on your journey of growth and healing. Taking this first step is often very difficult and I invite you to contact me and see if counseling is right for you and if I would be a good fit for your needs.

I offer space for survivors of childhood trauma, religious trauma, PTSD/CPTSD, and grief who want work through the past with a compassionate guide. As an LGBTQIA+ identifying therapist, I know the challenges and joys of living in the world as your authentic self. I aim to help you extend compassion toward yourself for the behaviors or patterns that have served you in some way to survive and cope with overwhelming experiences, while also empowering you to have choices to move forward as you heal. Call or email me for a free consultation to see if we are a good fit.

My clients are affected by stressful transitions like relationships ending and other loss. They face anxiety, depression, disorders related to identity/body image, disordered eating and addictions. Some of my clientele have experienced traumatic events yet learn to have a new relationship with themselves and their significant others. I have training in solving relationship problems specific to emotional bonding and intimacy. Advocating healthy relationships, I assess inner issues like identity, body image, and desire. I evaluate outer issues like workplace discrimination, family conflict and other barriers to life satisfaction.

I believe the therapeutic relationship is the primary factor for supporting you through self-exploration and self-understanding that leads to an authentic healing process and growth. I earned my Master’s degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from the University of North Texas.

Getting help to untangle and navigate through this time is the first step. I can help you have better relationships within your family and with others. Finding your authentic self and expressing your needs brings benefits to your life in so many ways. Parenting, communicating with a significant other, and dealing with stress, anxiety or depression can be challenging. Together we can work to reduce or eliminate problematic patterns of behavior preventing you from living the life you desire.

Relationships are tough, even more with depression, anxiety, trauma or neurodiversity. Maybe you’ve gotten through tough times, but now are depleted. You were accepting of differences, but now lack patience, or perhaps betrayals, drinking, even social awkwardness became too much? I help adults improve communication, and learn to repair & forgive in relationships. It’s time you are heard, understood, cared for - even if affair repair or addictions are happening. My website outlines specialization in neurodiversity (ADHD, autism ) couples counseling. Let me guide you to stop those hurtful patterns, so healing & love are a priority.

You deserve respect for your potential to grow and heal. Whether I am partnering with you through counseling, supervision, clinical consultation or therapeutic yoga, my priority is empowering you to recognize, access and live into your inner wisdom. It is human nature to thrive in safe connections, and I admire your bravery in recruiting someone to join you in your process. As we collaborate towards your personal or professional goals, I hope you’ll find yourself seen and heard, your worth honored, and your goals realized.

I am passionate about being a counselor because I believe in the value of helping others reach their potential, and I love sharing this fulfilling work with my clients.

No matter where you are on your road to growth, whether you are cautious or optimistic, I will tailor my approach to your needs.

Life can be stressful, but with support, compassion, and some laughter along the way, the possibilities are limitless. I believe that it truly takes a "village" in working toward emotional wellness, and counseling is one of those gifts we are given. I have a passion for assisting individuals in finding purpose at the core of their existence. I enjoy working collaboratively alongside my clients in order to create a space for self-exploration and healing.

My clients tend to be people who march to the beat of their own drum. They know what it’s like to feel misunderstood, and some might go as far as to consider themselves “black sheep” or even outcasts. My approach to counseling involves embracing your unique identity and letting go of expectations others may have put onto you. Whether you are working through depression, anxiety, relationship troubles, or uncertainty, I want to help you become your most authentic self.

Are you ready to work towards building a more satisfying and meaningful life? You can expect sincerity, compassion, and to be appropriately challenged as we address your unique concerns and personal goals. I offer individual therapy services for adults and adolescents, and couples therapy services. My approach to therapy is based on a foundation of cognitive-behavioral theory with careful attention to interpersonal dynamics and existentialist influence. I strive to create a therapeutic environment that feels safe to explore your hurts and fears. Together we will help you move towards the life you want.

Some days life is great, others we get bogged down in our busyness, work stress, family conflicts, school pressures and well, just drama. Coping some days is easy - others, it's tough just to get out of bed. Whether you just need a sounding board, struggle with anxiety/depression, have a history of trauma or you're not sure why life is tough, there is help. I seek to create an open, accepting environment to listen. I offer treatment options that bring health and wholeness. My goal is to create safe space for you to achieve yours.

I have specialized in the treatment of trauma related and dissociative disorders since starting my private practice in 2002. I completed my student and LPC internships with Timberlawn Psychiatric Hospital's Trauma Program, directed by Colin Ross, M.D. from November 1996 through February 1998. My intern work at the trauma program led me to a long-time association with Dr. Ross and a specialization in the treatment of trauma-related disorders including Dissociative Identity Disorder. I was the program director for the inpatient Trauma Treatment Program from 1998-2002.

Analysis and therapy help us move beyond the places we are stuck to a better understanding of who we are. I would be honored to walk with you on this journey towards your best self, offering a helping hand where needed. I work from an understanding of therapy that allows us to look at the past, the present and the future in understanding the issues you are facing and finding the path you desire to follow. Exploring family dynamics, relationship issues, self-concept, creative impulses, dreams, and life passions allow us to chart a course toward hope and healing.
