Therapists in Denton, TX

I have been married for 16 years and have three adult stepchildren, a son-in-law and 3 grandchildren. I also have 2 cats that are important members of the family. The spirit of and definition family is something that has grown and has become valued over the years. My life experiences have given me insight and perspectives that allow me to make unique connections with my clients. I learned that life is ever changing. I have come to realize is that during times when we feel defeated, it does not mean we are unable to change the outcome or our quality of life in the future. Nor, is it too late to create the life we do want.

Relationships are complicated. Our relationships can bring us great joy, but also great and lasting pain. Many of the burdens that we carry come from our relationships with others, both past and present. These relationships, then, need to be part of our emotional healing, whether or not other people participate in counseling. As a Marriage & Family Therapist, I believe that we all have the ability to heal within our relationships and within ourselves. It is the goal of the counseling process, then, to empower us to heal and change in order to live more balanced and fulfilling lives.

In my practice, I offer comprehensive psychological assessments and therapy with adults, children, and families. Regarding testing and evaluation, my specialties include assessing and diagnosing a range of neurodevelopmental and socioemotional concerns, including Autism, ADHD, learning differences, intellectual ability, anxiety, depression, trauma, and personality functioning. I believe psychological assessment is a powerful therapeutic intervention and that accurate diagnosing is critical in identifying treatment approaches and informing academic placements.

Life can be really chaotic, unfair, overwhelming, and/or conflicting. Relationships with our significant other, children, extended family, and even friends can get difficult and hard to maintain how you want. You can end up feeling pretty lonely, or you might feel lost not knowing which direction to turn is the best. Sometimes it feels like there is so much that has happened it's hard to know what it is that is causing all the feelings. There is hope to move from the extremes and create a happy balance - to live from our calling, strengths, hopes, and dreams again.
