Art Therapy in 77006

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor with a Masters of Art in Art Therapy. I am known for my warm, caring nature that creates an atmosphere of unconditional acceptance which is tempered with my ability to lovingly challenge my clients with tact and compassion. I help adults who've been through sexual/relational trauma and narcissistic abuse, or who struggle with relational difficulties, dissociative identity/OSDD, and codependency.

The Center is an integrative and holistic Mind + Body + Spirit wellness collaborative. Our mission is to inspire deep psychological growth and empower you to become the potential hidden inside you. We can help you form a deeper understanding of yourself and the world around you by integrating the pieces of your inner world - your history, your experiences, your symbols, values, and needs. We don't seek to change the existence of feelings and suffering, we work with you to expand your capacity to hold and experience your suffering.

You’ve decided to make a change, and you’re seeking an empathetic, empowering professional to validate your experience and walk along side you. I’ve worked with children and families my entire career; in medical facilities, schools, and in home. I’ve been honored to build coping skills, cultivate resilience, and deepen the insight of others for over 15 years. “Life’s a journey, not a destination”; therapy is an investment in that journey and can take you from surviving to thriving. You and your family deserve to thrive.

Are you someone struggling with anxiety, fatigue, or depression? Do you wonder about the mind + body connection? Do you seek support, compassion, and non judgement? As an art therapist and clinical counselor I am here to help you find inner guidance and confidence. My approach is humanistic, integrative, and person focused.

Art Therapy Houston provides art therapy and counseling services to children, adults, adolescents, and families. We specialize in assisting individuals as they adjust through transitions. Art therapy applies visual arts and the creative process to support, maintain, and enhance health. Like other forms of psychotherapy, art therapy encourages growth and self-awareness. It provides a safe way of accessing feelings that may be difficult to clearly articulate. Making art is therapeutic and empowering. Anyone seeking a deeper purpose, enhanced creativity, or a better understanding of emotions can benefit.

I believe the therapeutic relationship is central to creating a safe space for sharing, healing, and transformation to occur. I approach this relationship from a client-centered and trauma-informed perspective, and my therapeutic orientation is holistic, intuitive, and integrative. Art therapy and other symbolic communication can be an important component of psychological healing, and I specialize in expressive therapies that encourage self-exploration.

Why are you considering therapy? Maybe something traumatic happened, or you hate your body. Break-ups, trouble having a baby, career changes? Need a listening ear on issues related to sexuality or gender? Feeling depressed, anxious or like you’re going to lose your mind? Tired of being angry about the circumstances of your life but not sure how to overcome the hurt?

Do you need help dealing with traumatic experiences, a challenging upbringing, or complex family dynamics? Are you struggling with anxiety, depression, perfectionism, or feeling stuck in life? As a parent, are you seeking advice on communicating better with your young adult or teen child? Do you need guidance on setting boundaries or navigating co-parenting? Perhaps your teenager is dealing with strong emotions, OCD thoughts, social anxiety, depression, school pressure, suicidal thoughts, self-esteem issues, or self-harm. Or maybe your family needs help building stronger connections and improving communication.

HOPE is what initiates change. Imagine a life where your family was no longer defined by your child's trauma, fear, sadness, guilt, shame, or anger. What a freeing experience that would be! An individual can only be as happy as their least happy loved one- as hurt occurs within the context of relationships, so does healing. Hoping for a stable, safe, and happy family is what marks readiness for therapy. Little people with big problems may effortlessly grow into big people with bigger problems, so the critical nature of childhood and adolescence provides opportunity to shift this life trajectory.

I am a Houston-based licensed professional counselor who offers individual therapy within a safe, compassionate, and non-judgmental space. I approach therapy with a focus on enhancing awareness and connection in the present moment. I truly believe in the healing power of participating in your self-exploration. I welcome children, adolescents, adults whom are seeking support in a variety of reasons. My work also navigates from a framework focused on understanding the impact of generational trauma, racial identity on mental health.

My priority is to create a therapeutic environment in which clients feel comfortable and accepted. I am here to support your desire to feel better and together we will tend to the root causes of whatever is bringing you to therapy. I’m also a Registered Dance/Movement Therapist, which means that I pay attention to the whole person- mind/body/spirit. In session, we will take time to “be with”emotional discomfort which is much more manageable with support. I hope to create space for your unique process of expression via non-judgement, while simultaneously helping you to identify coping tools that are already stored in your body.

Hello, and welcome to my Psychology Today profile! I'm thrilled to introduce myself as a dedicated and compassionate therapist specializing in psychotherapy for children and adolescents. My mission is to provide a safe, comforting, and empowering environment for young minds to thrive and explore their inner world.

I understand the unique needs of children and adolescents, and my practice is centered around tailoring treatment to meet those individual needs.

As a Licensed Professional Counselor and a Certified Anger Resolution Therapist, I treat clients who seek solutions regarding anger management, stress management, and relationship issues.

Therapy is often times a difficult and personal journey that one enters for a variety of reasons. It provides a safe place for people to process and work through circumstances while also offering valuable insight and perspective into whatever journey they may find themselves on. I feel humbled and a sense of gratitude that you would allow me to be a part of this very personal journey that you have chosen to go on. My philosophy is to welcome & embrace you regardless of where you are at in the journey and walk beside you as you see it to it's end.

You may be grappling with a history of trauma or PTSD, experiencing high levels of anxiety, struggling with managing ADHD symptoms, or facing substance use or addiction issues. You could also be dealing with identity-related challenges, particularly if they are part of the LGBTQAI+ communities. Family dynamics, interpersonal relationships, and career-related stressors might also be contributing factors to your concerns.
