Family Therapy in Missouri City, MO

I am passionate about the mental health field, particularly in working with children and young adults. Guiding and supporting children, teens and their parents during their formative years is both rewarding and transformative. Together, let's unlock their potential, foster resilience, and empower them to navigate the complexities of life and build a solid foundation for their future success. I also have experience in working with adults who are navigating divorce and the changes that brings both to you and your children. Together, let's focus on understanding and creating a safe and nurturing environment for your family.

Does your child, adolescent, or teen exhibit concerning behaviors at home or school? I believe we should strive to look beyond the concerning behaviors exhibited by our children. What if we shift the perspective from viewing the behavior as problematic to seeing the behavior as a form of communication? My goal as a therapist is to translate this form of communication to create a bridge of understanding between caregivers and their children. As an adult, “adulting” is hard. Therapy can be a positive outlet to explore new coping skills and a self-care routine. It can also be a place to process through life stressors or trauma.

Life is hard. Family is hard. Raising kids is hard. You want someone who can help when everything in your daily life is affected, including our thoughts, emotions and resulting behaviors. Also, impacting the way your body feels, and ultimately how you experience YOU and your relationships. You may feel overwhelmed or stuck, unsatisfied in your relationship, anxious, or wondering if things can change or things can get better. There is hope, and we are here. We have many clinicians at all locations that are experienced and ready to help, including affordable options.

Seeking help from someone you have never met and discussing your most challenging life obstacles can be very uncomfortable and scary. However, at some point in our lives, searching for guidance and support outside of our friends and family may be needed in order to get you to your desired goal in life. Or maybe you are on the right path, but simply need validation and support. Whether your goals are decreasing anxiety, assisting with family conflict, or guidance with trauma, I can assist you with your desired outcome. I work with all ages from diverse backgrounds.

Living with anxiety, depression, or relationship issues can be isolating and overwhelming. Sometimes it can even be difficult to know where to begin to make your life feel better. I help people figure out how to take action in their lives so that they can create a life of joy, purpose, and meaningful connections. I provide a compassionate, calm, and confidential space to help teens, adults, and families develop a plan that allows for growth and healing. The time to start feeling better is now!

Life is full of experiences. Our experiences shape how we see the world around us and our daily functioning. You may walk through some of your experiences with questions such as, “Will I ever feel better? What if I am just not good enough? Why am I so broken?” To be human means you were created to be healed. Coming into my office, the purpose is to find a sense of healing and personal growth in areas you may be struggling with in your life.

Try as we might, sometimes happiness and contentment always seem just out of reach. Depression, anxiety and stress can make getting out of bed in the morning a daunting task. Troubles in your relationship or conflict in the family can make you feel helpless or overwhelmed. Creating a daily routine using strategies that ground you and support moving forward in areas where you feel stuck. Improving your outlook on life to see past the stressful events that feel overwhelming. Talking through challenges and learning different ways to look at something in order to make progress, even when feeling depressed and anxious.
