Have you ever had emotional pain, anger, trauma? Understandably. Life can be tough. Thanks to many smart people in my path, I have been trained to use assessments to target treatment, so that you can reach your goals. I have also been trained to do all this from a person-centered perspective. As such, I see therapy as a well-planned coaching session where we identify your goals, clearly define barriers toward reaching goals, and coming up with strategies for long-term success in achieving them. (Can you tell that I am also a veteran?) :). Let's see how we can work together to turn that frown upside down! ;).

Relationships are hard. Only our closest loved ones, especially those we share a bed with, can stir up our most intense feelings of emotional pain, disappointment and shame. We often respond to these emotions with anger, withdraw, control or resistance which leads to conflict, emotional distance and the dreaded dead bedroom syndrome. Having disagreements in a relationship is expected. We all have our own ways of seeing, feeling and thinking about things including sex. The key to a healthy relationship is to be able to acknowledge the differences and communicate in a way that is genuine, supportive and understanding.

Everyone is on their own path, and everyone's path is their own. I like to think of the client/therapist relationship as "co-travelers." Meaning, we are both on this journey together. I believe in a holistic approach to a person's emotional well-being can make all the difference in the world. I want to help clients to become more aware of how the world around them can have sudden, as well as, long term affects when it comes to therapy. If we can be present with our thoughts and ourselves, we're half way there.

I offer individual, couples, and family counseling. Are you wondering how counseling can help you? Sometimes life throws us a curve ball and a specific issue comes up. You and I would consider short term, solution-focused counseling as a strategy to work on your concern. Is there a relationship in your life that feels strained? Our counseling process would likely include working to improve communication patterns and re-discovering the needs of all concerned. For more chronic issues like depression and anxiety, developing coping skills and improving self-talk and self-image can create significant relief in your life.

At Ellie Mental Health-New Braunfels, our goal is to make getting mental health care the norm. And while we know that going to therapy and being vulnerable with someone you just met can seem scary, we do everything we can to make each session as comfortable and fun as possible. As your professional secret keepers, we aim to walk along this journey with you and provide you with a safe place to talk, decompress, and heal.

My approach to counseling is hands on and straight-forward. Change and healing is possible, and with it, self-love, and happiness. But it requires time and effort. There’s no getting around it; therapy is hard. I am here to help guide my clients on their journey, providing support and guidance along the way.

The ideal client presents in therapy for any life challenge who extends their hand out, reaching for help. From life adjustments to major mental health needs, honesty and openness for a client to explore themselves and grow is paramount within the counseling our collaborative counseling space. Clients should look to learn about themselves such as their; strengths, needs, and boundaries.

Sometimes it can be easy to feel like there is something wrong with us. We doubt ourselves, our worth, and our abilities. The experiences we have in life can lead us to having these painful beliefs and emotions, which can bring about feelings of shame, misunderstanding or despair. When we are able to overcome the shame and self-doubt, our true selves are able to be discovered. I welcome the opportunity to get to know the real you and help you discover your value and worth.

There are so many surprises and experiences in the world to shape and grow us, some of which can be life-changing or hard to move past.
