I strive to provide a warm, respectful, comfortable environment for you to explore your life and areas of discontent. I believe people can benefit from therapy at any stage in life, things come up and often we need a sounding board to gain insight into our future goals or past experiences. When something is off in our lives, it is difficult to figure out how to move forward to achieve balance. My goal is to help you feel supported and empowered to make significant changes in your life and improve overall well being.

Clients seek treatment not only to make a connection with someone, but to see concrete changes in their lives. You’ve made the first, BIG step by asking for help. Being vulnerable can be scary, but it is absolutely necessary to overcome the challenges that we face. Whether you’re struggling with a recent trauma, an unhealthy relationship, or just feeling anxious and/ or depressed, I would absolutely love to help you on your journey towards finding the best version of yourself.

I primarily help people who are suffering with either (or both!) Insomnia Disorder and PTSD. However I have many years of experience as a therapist and am able to treat depression, anxiety, chronic pain, along with co-occuring substance use disorder and other mental health disorders. I believe in delivering evidence based therapy when clinically indicated. In my experience, clients feel better sooner when they receive the most effective treatment for their diagnosis. I also use a lot of measurement based care to routinely assess progress we are making. My ideal client is someone who is ready to enact change in their life.

As your therapist my role will be to facilitate change in areas you want to see improvement by providing a safe and friendly environment where you feel free to be you. The real raw version of yourself. I take the time to be a person with you, so you feel comfortable being a person with me. I want you to feel as comfortable as possible while we work together.

I use a variety of validating approaches that empower and motivate you in the therapeutic process.

What is it you want to FIX? Where are you STUCK? What is it you don’t KNOW? Are you questioning your relationships, health, life satisfaction, or accomplishments? If you look "together" on the outside but feel different on the inside, you're not alone! Our culture demands we try to have it all, fit in, & focus on the positive. Yet guilt, self-doubt, anxiety, frustration, overwhelm, & feeling not good enough is SO common. Performing, producing, perfectionism, & people pleasing is SO exhausting. When this no longer works for you, it's time for a different approach. We'll work from the inside for your RESET!

As a counselor, I believe that when children and adolescents are provided with a safe environment of unconditional support by those around them, they are able to take strides in their emotional development and healing. I aim to create a warm, playful environment that encourages self-growth so that my clients can find their own internal motivation to take on life's current and future challenges confidently. Through counseling and play therapy services, I provide individualized treatment that fosters healing, independence and self-acceptance.

You are doing great! . . . mostly. Yes, there's the rising tension in your marriage and recently one of you used the "D" word. Or you worry about money or you worry about your kids because maybe they are lazy or don't respect you. Or you worry about your parents who are aging. You are good at your job but work doesn't fulfill you. You might be spending more and more time alone with your thoughts, and you find them difficult companions. They might make you feel like you are drowning in anger and sorrow. You are doing great, but sometimes it feels like you are hanging on by a thread. Or maybe the thread has already snapped.

What is your greatest desire? Take a moment to really think about it. What stands in your way? You may be struggling to answer these questions. You may feel lost, confused, helpless, and overwhelmed. Maybe you feel alone or too embarrassed to talk to someone, but you don't have to brave the journey alone. Life is full of twists and turns, obstacles, and roadblocks that create a need to adjust the route to your destination. You may need help navigating the journey, and therapy is not “one size fits all.”

Virtual only! I live in TX. Clients who are struggling but wanting to not only heal, but also grow have the potential for being extremely powerful people. We have all gone through difficult times, experiencing anxiety, fear, depression, and hopelessness. However, if we have healed, we look back and see those times as hard, but some of the most powerful in our lives. Hearts can become strong, marriages can be healed and become euphoric, and our families can become strong, powerful, and beautiful. If you have a Christian background, I can help you become stronger in your faith. Executive Coaching available.
