Expressive Arts Therapists in Beach City, TX

I work with a variety of clients with differing ages and cultural and environmental backgrounds. My clients range from ages 12 years old and up. My first priority is meeting the client where they are, mentally and emotionally, and ensuring they feel safe and judgement-free.

I support clients for various challenges such as anxiety, stress, depression, relationships, identity issues, and difficulties in managing emotions. I create a safe space to explore these issues and develop coping strategies. Let’s start building upon personal growth, resilience, and self-acceptance.

For me, the opportunity to help others has always been a personal passion and I believe that every person deserves to be heard and seen.

While it is common to feel "unraveled" when daily stressors or various traumas occur, everyone has the ability to find meaningful solutions. I believe that everyone is unique, so the solution will be different for each person. My desire is to assist clients (ages 10-90), including adolescents, adults and couples, find a balance between a healthy need for relationship and possible psychological, social or spiritual factors within a framework of personal responsibility. After teaching English and Art for 23 years, I experienced the power of expressive arts to unlock inner voices that help students/clients achieve hope and confidence.

If you're here it means you are considering starting or continuing your journey towards healing. It can be overwhelming looking for help, not knowing what the process is like, or how to choose therapist that feels right to you. In my office you can bring what you need, whatever that looks like. Get comfortable, maybe you want to kick off your shoes and use the weighted blanket; maybe swearing will help. It's not an overly formal, clinical setting but a place to come as you are as we gently explore how your past and present are interacting and hijacking the future you want.

Sometimes people are not sure what they need to help them live a productive, mentally healthy and happy life. That could be from issues of the past or present difficulties they are facing. My goal is to assist them to find the solutions they need to continue on in a healthy manner discovering how to face and conquer the issues of the past and/or of the present and future.

After 30 years as an occupational therapist helping individuals overcome physical challenges, I returned to school to pursue my desire to become a licensed counselor. I believe that mental health is as important as physical ability and that it is never too late to pursue a dream. I believe that asking for help is a sign of strength rather than one of weakness.

I love to work with queer, neurodivergent people of color and otherwise marginalized adolescents and adults, because of my interest in our collective liberation. I believe therapy is a collaborative effort and that clients are the experts in their own lives. They have the ability to choose how to resolve their problems. Of course, many issues are systemic, but what choices can we make of the things within our control? I use experiential awareness and expressive arts to create a space to develop insight in order to grow and heal.
