As a marriage and family therapist, I view therapy from a systemic perspective. This means that my focus is not on individuals, but on relationships. The focus of treatment from this perspective is on interactions within systems, such as family and society, even when working with an individual. I believe effective therapy is based on faith that every individual or family has the ability to affect change within their own relationships. While I encourage clients to bring important relationships into therapy, I am qualified to work with clients one-on-one.
My past experience includes working with victims of child abuse in a nonprofit setting. During this time, I trained in the use of play therapy with children and families. I also have experience with substance abuse counseling and dual diagnoses, and I am a board-approved supervisor in Texas as well as an AAMFT-Approved Supervisor.
As a gender therapist, I provide a number of services specific to the transgender and gender-nonconforming populations. Please visit my website for a list of services offered. My services are open to anyone, regardless of race, nationality, gender, sexual orientation, religion, age, disability, gender identity or expression, etc.
