I am a Licensed Psychologist in Texas (in person & virtual sessions) & Illinois (virtual only sessions) providing short and long-term therapy to adults (ages 18 and up). I have worked with individuals from all ranges of life including varying socio-economic status and different stages of life in settings like college counseling centers, community mental health, and forensic detention facilities. Some areas of interest to me are depression or difficult moods, troubling thought processes, low self-esteem, anxiety, anger management, recovery from trauma, and chronic relationship problems/marriage difficulties.

Struggling? You don't have to go alone...... Navigating life can sometimes lead us to feel disconnected from our close relationships, the people around us, or even ourselves. We may be sailing smoothly through life at times, and at others - the unexpected happens and we are not sure what to do, or how to recover. This can lead to a profound sense of loneliness, isolation, and disconnection. If you find yourself struggling or having difficulty finding meaning and purpose - you are not alone. To struggle is to be human, and I would be honored to help you uncover the answers you seek.

In these uncertain, anxious and troubled times, many people are experiencing high levels of stress, anxiety and depression. Many are experiencing increased social isolation and loneliness. Many are in need of a skilled, supportive therapist who can provide perspective and help them navigate their way. I can help. I offer strong specialty in treating anxiety and depression, trauma (PTSD), and relationship/sexual problems (gay & straight). I find it especially rewarding working with grieving clients, those suffering from chronic & terminal illness, men's issues, and helping men & women heal from emotional, physical & sexual abuse.

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor Associate under the supervision of Erin James, MA, LPC-S. I am the owner of Determined Legacy Counseling LLC.

As a trauma-informed mental health therapist, I desire to provide a safe environment to meet individuals where they are and collaborate with them to build upon their innate strengths.

Are you feeling anxious, depressed or just can't seem to figure it out? Listen, I get it. Life can be fragile and unpredictable.

Trust me, I have been there, too. My passion is bringing healing to people by empowering healthy perceptions of themselves and their relationships.

I have been in private practice for 30 years, assisting clients with a variety of issues: depression and bipolar, substance abuse, couples and their struggles, including parenting and helping children and adolescents.

You just aren't able to cope well anymore. Your feelings of depression, bouts of anxiety are getting worse. If you've never done counseling before, the thought of finding a counselor only increases anxiety. If you are searching for a new therapist, you doubt your capacity to start over. ("How will this time be any different?") Your hope for any positive change is waning. Your partner, your family, your work—all of it is less manageable and less meaningful. Even your faith feels lifeless. The coping mechanisms that worked in the past, don't work anymore. Reaching out for help is your Next Right Thing.

My purpose is to guide and facilitate my clients toward an empowered, spiritually connected, and self-directed life. Individuals who are discouraged by, and feel powerless over their impulsivity and compulsions, battle against their own behaviors, emotions, and thoughts, and who have lost their connection to living in joy, are those I feel compassionately called to serve.

One afternoon I told my wife that after another tour, I would be leaving the U.S. Coast Guard for a very different career. Serving my country and the men and women of the U.S. Coast Guard is one of the greatest honors and privileges of my life.

I became a Social Worker and therapist because it is my greatest joy and pleasure to support you as you unify all your strengths and gifts to release your Faith, Hope, and Love into society.
