Asking for help can be tough. Most people are taught at a young age to be independent, strong and self-sufficient. Yet there are times when life can be overwhelming. Events or life situations may leave you feeling confused, troubled, depressed and unsure of how to make things better. It might be your intimate relationships, family, work, school or many other challenges. I use an emotional focused approach to help couples gain strength and restore intimacy in their relationships. I also use a cognitive behavioral approach to therapy that is highly effective in helping individuals with grief and loss, anger, depression, trauma and addictions.

Sometimes it feels really hard to communicate with your spouse. What used to be small problems start to feel too hard to fix. The bigger problems become issues that just seem easier to avoid altogether. Other times, it feels like you don’t enjoy the same activities anymore. You can spend time together in the same house all week and feel more like roommates than lovers. You might be good at running a household together, but wonder where the friendship has gone.

My focus is You, the patient. My specialty is providing people with the help they need in their given situation. I work with individuals, couples and families. I am a Certified Trauma Resolution Therapist and work in the areas of Depression, Anxiety and Bi-polar issues. Areas of Trauma include trauma related to abuse, traumatic loss, accidents, sudden death, and divorce etc. I work well with all age groups, cultures and ethnicities. I provide services to the active military as well as veterans. During the flooding in Houston I spent 2 weeks providing assistance.I believe strongly in service.

We all encounter various life challenges; maybe at different stages or under different circumstances but none of us should have to endure them alone. Sometimes we may need short-term support and sometimes ongoing support. Whether you simply need to hit the "restart" button to get back on track or "pause" for time to sort everything out, working together we can create and implement a plan to help you safely reach your personal dreams, desires and destination at your pace.

"My primary focus is Client centered. I believe Counseling is about the Client and not the Counselor. I help Clients develop skills collaboratively to alleviate anxiety, depression, grief, trauma, and other symptoms".

I would appreciate having the opportunity to assist you to realize your hopes, dreams and goals in life. I have assisted thousands of people to find the joy and happiness in their lives that they were seeking. I empower each of you with the knowledge, skills and support to enable you to learn how to improve yourself. No concern is too big or small for me to assist you with. I have 25 years of experience helping others change and grow and self actualize. I look forward to having the opportunity to help you grow in your self realization and self development. I understand the possible anxiety and fear that you may be having.

I had the privilege of working in several settings that provided a wealth of knowledge and experience (i.e, rape crisis center, intensive outpatient clinic, behavioral health insurance). I enjoy helping others face their hardships and relationships to find joy on the other side of their dark moments. My ideal client is anyone above the age of 12 years old (individuals, couples and families) that is ready to work through their current struggle to find their sense of fulfillment and happiness.

A breakthrough, more successful approach to alcoholism/alcoholism & drug abuse is now available; the ReNova Method. ReNova has been clinically proven to produce truly lasting recovery by addresses the twin root causes of alcoholism simultaneously; psychology and biology. ReNova has been clinically shown to have superior outcomes vs. 12 steps, The Sinclair Method and Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation. ReNova works by resolving why individuals began and continue excessive drinking. Co-occurring drug abuse is also resolved. ReNova is a private 1:1 approach, so it a safer choice in today’s world.

The ideal client for me is one who is committed to recovery and learning to enjoy life, not just endure it. By acquiring insight and expanding awareness, the client becomes empowered to discover their true self: not what happened to you, but who you were truly meant to be.

Hello and welcome. Growth is rarely easy, but often worthwhile. I understand that it can be challenging to seek therapy since growth usually follows self-examination and self-reflection. If you are ready to invest in this challenge and in yourself, I would truly appreciate the opportunity be a part of your journey.

Are you struggling with everyday life issues related to illness, marriage, family or having difficulty with a child? Perhaps you are coping with emotional issues related to depression, anxiety or anger. Sometimes it is a struggle to manage relationships and life circumstances. These problems can affect your relationships at home and work. They can be painful or cause additional problems to crop up.

A challenging responsibility in life is to heal emotional wounds. Family crisis, divorce, losses, anxiety or having a child with emotional or intellectual barriers to be successful in life without finding the desired answer creates frustration and distress. Psychotherapy as an alternative isn't the easiest answer but could be insightful and resilient. Children with developmental difficulties, learning disabilities, autism or conduct disorders can benefit from a holistic approach that considers the healing of their emotional pain as resource for reaching developmental goals. I work with a collaborative approach. You will discover your own potential and solutions to your specific circumstance.

The challenges we face can be overwhelming and can leave us feeling helpless and hopeless. We have a choice to make about how we react to the obstacles that are along our path. My hope is to help you achieve success along this journey and find solutions to the problems you are facing.

Choosing a counselor is one of the most important decisions you can make. You want someone who is caring, knowledgeable, and accessible; someone willing to take the time to listen to your concerns and treat you as a person, not just a client. I understand this and will provide you with professional, solution-focused and evidenced based assessment and treatment to help you reach your goals. You can learn more about me and review the on-line parenting, anger management and drug & alcohol related classes I offer at: www.professionalcounseling.us.

Our meetings are most productive when we both are asking questions and coming up with theories and ways to clarify goals and meaning. Updating your wants and needs might be required. Openly sharing your thoughts is a way to put those thoughts into meaningful order and to shed the fears, doubts, and icky feelings that might have attached themselves to your daily thinking and feeling. I think these small changes in thinking patterns and having a better understanding of what has been influencing you will show up as a clearer sense of self and better balance in life. More good- Less bad.
