Therapists in Brazos County, TX

Accepting New Clients: Let’s face it relationships are complicated! Whether it is with yourself, your spouse, partner, family, or friends, relationships challenge us on all levels. I explore how emotions, thoughts, and beliefs impact personal well-being and the health of our relationships. My experiences and Christian faith have shaped me to understand that we need healthy emotional connection, and to understand where we are going, we need to know how we arrived at this crossroad. Change begins through the therapeutic relationship built on trust, acceptance, honesty, and emotional connection.

You don't have to suffer in siIence anymore. In our fast changing world, finding balance can be difficult and may even seem impossible at times. Feelings of helplessness, hopelessness, and the thoughts of giving up make it hard to push forward when you have conflicting goals, objectives, and situations in your life. They can seem to happen all at once, and it feels like they are all demanding our energy, thoughts, and immediate choices in order to progress and change. Anxious or depressing thoughts and feelings accompany the trying times of life, and therapy can be a way to get yourself and/or your family up to optimal functioning.

You’re starting to feel like no one knows what you are really going through inside, because on the outside everything is all put together. It feels like you have to perform or wear a mask to make it through the day because everyone views you as strong and successful already. You’ve spent so much of your life working towards a goal (maybe a degree, a career, a relationship) but now that you’re here it still feels like something is missing. You're starting to question some of the things you were taught about life and yourself from a young age, and you've grown tired of living up to expectations that you never set for yourself.

You've taken the courageous first step of looking for support. You never thought you'd end up here... feeling overwhelmed, emotional, and exhausted. You're not sure who you are anymore, and you don't feel like you can push through, ignore, or compartmentalize these feelings any longer. Maybe it started recently after a birth, a fertility struggle, a loss, relationship change, trauma, or life transition. Maybe it started much earlier in life. Either way, this territory feels difficult for you, and you're ready to give yourself what you find so much easier to give to others... HELP.
