Emotionally Focused Therapists in Seabrook, TX

I love talking to couples about every type of issue that comes up from infidelity to how to squeeze the toothpaste. I practice Emotionally Focused Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy. Come see me, be open and honest and let's fix this thing. I also love talking to Men about issues like dating, divorce, sexual dysfunctions and career issues. I have a special place in my heart for police officers as I have 30 years experience in that field (now retired). I understand the unique difficulties cops and their families face. I also offer Christian counseling for those looking for that. I am a lifelong Christian who loves Jesus.

My approach to therapy is to make it as casual and natural as possible. It should feel comfortable in the room, as if you're talking to an old friend. I am passionate about working with individuals, couples, families, and adolescents. I specialize in conflict resolution, sex, sexuality, intimacy, trauma, anxiety, depression, and life transitions. I am comfortable working with all ethnicities and cultures. I am committed to meeting my clients halfway and will move at your pace. I thoroughly believe that through guidance, education, understanding of one's problems, anyone has the capacity to enhance their life for the better.

Life has challenges; some up and some down. We can feel anxious, sad, alone or sometimes just stuck with no clear direction and no one we can turn to. That's when we find ourselves needing a partner to walk alongside us as we navigate the things life throws our way. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor with nearly a decade and a half of experience assisting individuals who took a big step towards wellness by doing just what you are doing today and looking for a counselor who you can trust.

Yep, life sure can feel heavy sometimes! Does it seem as though you are in a constant wrestling- match with your feelings, or battling an emotional tug-of-war? Are the daily pressures weighing you down, leaving you discouraged, exhausted or hopeless? Maybe you are fighting to control your racing thoughts & restless energy. Struggling to contain or manage your frustration, disappointment, anger, fear or sadness can feel impossible, even pointless, at times. The stress of it all might even be causing you to disconnect or isolate from those you love in order to shield them from what you are going through.

Email/Call. Are you struggling with things in life? Let’s talk about it! Maybe even a walk and talk session. My office space is a completely judgement free zone! Do you feel like you can’t be open about your life struggles and are trying to figure out an open space to go through this journey? I am here for you to hold the space and listen. I support and welcome with open arms pre-teens, teens, SA & DV Survivors, Trauma survivors & LGBTQIA+ Community. My goal is to create a space to help heal. I am an LPC and hold a PhD in Philosophy with emphasis in Clinical Sexology and a Masters in Counseling.

I believe in promoting healing and healthy mind through effective psychotherapy. Life as magnificent as it is, comes with challenges that can overwhelm an individual to the point where his/her daily functioning is significantly impaired. Psychotherapy provides a means for managing and coping with issues that at some time or another interfere with daily functioning. My goal is to assist individuals with learning how to manage/cope with the challenges presented by life.

A favorite saying of mine is "CHANGE... It's One of Life's Only Constants..." Change often signifies growth. Changes often move us from our comfort zone and may trigger stressful or distressing thoughts, behaviors, emotions or physiological responses. Our responses are often unconscious. Except we consciously recognize increased discomfort, pain or unproductive functioning in our daily roles and relationships. If you or a family member are experiencing any social, emotional, mental or behavioral difficulties causing distress & preventing enjoying life or realizing your or their full potential in personal, work or school functioning, I invite you to call me.

Each person has their own vital, meaningful life, and I join clients on this journey. Using a warm, empathic approach coupled with a healthy and gentle dose of directness, I guide clients in working through the areas of their lives that keep them stuck in their suffering. I work with couples and families to identify strengths and address problematic issues in relationships so that they may be more fulfilling. I have experience treating a variety of issues and have helped people from all walks of life in a practical, life-changing manner.

If you are struggling to love yourself and others, seeking guidance is a great place to start. I am dedicated to helping adult individuals nurture and grow their inner resources for healing, happiness, and peace. My aim is to work collaboratively with you to restore your innate capacity for greater resilience and connection. I deeply believe in the wisdom of mind-body-spirit and the brain's natural healing processes, and trust that those are driving each of you, in the context of your relationship with me and/or with your family, to seek wholeness and vitality.

For many of us, one of the hardest things to do is to ask for help. Congratulations! You are taking the first step by considering therapy. Now, more than ever, people need assistance due to the stressors of everyday life. It can be overwhelming to try to balance family, career, and relationships. Or maybe you have had a recent life experience which is causing you to seek help. Sometimes people are simply looking to gain more self-awareness and to grow emotionally. Whatever your reason, therapy can help.

Life does not always go the way we plan it. Sometimes life can hit hard and, at times, it can feel overwhelming. Occasionally, we may find ourselves in a challenging life transition, struggling to adjust to a new marriage or marriage difficulties, a new baby, a blended family, or an empty nest, a job promotion or loss, retirement, or the loss of a loved one. At other times in life, we may find ourselves stuck in unproductive and negative patterns, looking for solutions. I am passionate about working with clients who are facing life’s storms, adjusting to life transitions, or are simply ready to make positive changes in their lives.
