Therapists in Lubbock County, TX

Relationships are the cornerstone of life. Being able to have healthy, trusting relationships with ourselves, our partners, and families allows us to truly be who we were meant to be. I offer a safe and collaborative environment that will allow you to feel heard, understood, and empowered while working towards your goals. My approach will honor your unique lived experience and be focused on your needs. To honestly know yourself is to pursue a lifelong journey of self-exploration and walking alongside you in this process would be a privilege.

Do you have stress and anxiety related to a pending divorce, infidelity, pornography addiction, drugs/alcohol, or violence? Often these "adult" issues become problematic in households where children are involved. Are your children caught in the middle? Poor grades and oppositional/defiant behaviors can result from differing parenting styles or other conflicts between adults in the home. I understand the difficulty of seeking help in situations where feelings of embarrassment, guilt, anger, fear, or shame are involved, and assist my clients in resolving them.

After twenty years of practice, I continue to find that people are best served by a counselor who is emotionally and psychologically available to them in a time of need. I have enjoyed strong effectiveness working with depression, relationship conflict, grief, and anger management. I work with couples, older adults, teens, and children. These experiences have inspired me to incorporate multiple approaches that fit the personalities, interests and needs that people bring to my practice.

Welcome, fellow earth wanderers to my therapy page. If you've made it this far, you are at the point of knowing something isn't quite right in your world. That means you're above and beyond the others walking through life thinking, "it's fine. I'm fine. We're fine". I'm an empathetic, open minded veteran who also will likely have a cat join in for session. I have many...let's call them therapy animals. I offer a safe, inclusive, affirming safe space. Although I'm a white male, I have years of experience working within LGBTQIA+ and POC populations and am committed to exploring unconscious bias and working in an anti racist way.

I help create work-life stability, improve job and relationship satisfaction, and build leadership and communication skills. No matter what is ailing you right now - whether burnout, trauma, depression, or conflict - working with a trusted professional can help. There is a path forward.

As of April 24 2024, I have a few openings! Please read this all the way thru, you won't regret it!..... Have you ever sworn to yourself and others that you were never drinking/drugging again?.....And truly meant it?....only to go back on your word soon or eventually? ..........What changed?......You will come to see how it was your MIND that changed. If we don't address how the Mind Drives Relapse, it will continue. It all starts in your BRAIN & experienced as your Mind. I will provide you the tools needed as well as counseling each step of the way. I use an integrated approach blending neuroscience, spirituality and psychology.
