My therapeutic approach stems from a belief that human development and childhood events play a significant role in behavior. I embrace the counseling process and assist clients in processing past traumatic or disturbing events to foster personal growth.

I believe in a therapeutic process that revolves around life's changes and the journeys it takes us on. Choosing to change your focus is a powerful way of transforming any situation. Focusing on the positive doesn't mean that we are denying reality or avoiding what isn't working. It simply allows us to work from a grounded place in order to make the most informed decision from a less emotional place of clarity. Within our sessions, the goal is to cultivate a trusting and collaborative therapeutic relationship where an individual can bring their full self into session without any fear.

I entered the field of counseling because of a desire to help those in crisis or who are experiencing difficulties in their lives. I realized I wanted to be a counselor while working at a local community college. I saw students who were struggling academically but were very bright. I came to understand that there are many factors that go into being successful at life. I have always had a helping nature but didn’t fully understand why people behaved they way they did. Through my education and experience I can now help people in their personal lives, relationships and careers.

I believe that we are created with potential for balance and harmony, however, life is not always easy, we may struggle at times to reach this balance. When we get "stuck" or face difficult challenges, we must first identify which areas of life need adjusting or strengthening, and then, we set out to make the necessary changes. Whether it is physical, emotional, spiritual or mental unbalance, we can positively impact our lives by starting to work in one area, and, since they are all connected, the rest will follow. The mind-body connection is undeniable, research and science favor an integrated approach to behavioral health.

Hello! I am a licensed clinical professional counselor in Texas with 15 years of experience working for a Psychiatric Hospital and eight years working as a community counselor, behavior modification, and life coach. My primary therapy orientation is person-centered, emphasizing the importance of the therapist/client relationship, which provides the client with a non-judgment zone. As a result, the client can express themselves fully, and with the help of the therapist, they can create a plan that best suits the client because no two clients are alike, and what works for one individual might not work for another.

*****At this time I made the hard decision to cease taking insurance. I have many reasons for this but feel that it is the best choice for me at this time. My new fees will be in line with people who have medium to higher copays and no one has to meet a deductible. This simplifies the therapy process for all of us and I still seek quick solutions without sacrificing quality. My style is informal and your comfort is important to me as we deal with difficult, often painful subjects. This less formal billing process fits well with my style.

I work with clients to establish what their goals are for therapy. For some it may be to bring clarity to a specific situation that is causing disruption to their lives. For others, we may seek to uncover patterns of behavior that have been preventing them from living the lives they desire or having the sort of relationships they find most fulfilling. I seek to understand, increase awareness, relieve pain and fear, improve interpersonal skills and encourage growth. I have over 20 years of experience providing therapy to individuals and couples with a wide range of psychological difficulties.

As a Christian counselor I long to encourage and uplift. I consider it an honor when clients share their personal pain and struggle with me. Whatever your personal trial is right now, I want to establish a trusting relationship in which we can work through it together. Sometimes it just takes a caring counselor to process emotions with and other times an objective perspective or guidance may be needed. My integrative approach to counseling gives you the benefit of a wide range of options in seeking a peaceful solution to life's struggles.
