Therapists in Titus County, TX

It is vital for each client to feel comfortable with their counselor. Therapy works best when it is open and honest so that trust is built within sessions. The client and counselor work together as a team to find the problems, set goals, and put effort into the solutions so that the client can grow into who they desire to become.

I provide a safe and caring environment for individuals, couples and families to address a variety of personal and relationship issues. I have great respect for the inner resources of my clients and work in a collaborative way to assist them in the process of discovering solutions. My treatment approach is to provide support and practical feedback to help clients resolve current problems and long-standing patterns.

Counseling is about working together in a nonjudgmental and caring environment to meet your goals, bring balance back into your life, and help you harness your own abilities in the healing process. I believe in empowering you to lead and guide your own personal growth within an accepting and trusting counseling relationship. I understand that every person is an individual, with specific emotional issues, life views and wants. I focus on how you are experiencing life in the present moment and what we can do together to provide self exploration, self understanding, and an avenue of balance along your life path.

I believe everyone has the potential to grow and heal and I am committed to helping them succeed. I work with each client where they are at today and create a treatment plan that is unique to them. I utilize cognitive behavioral, solutions focused, and family systems approaches as well as a person-centered orientation. I can provide individual, couples, family, and group therapy depending on each client's needs.

Who am I? What happened to me? Why am I here? How do I go on? These are common questions many people pose to themselves. Where do you find your hope? I am a counselor who has a heart for meeting you where you are, instilling hope, and making counseling a positive experience. You will find nonjudgmental understanding and encouragement, as well as guidance to help you meet your goals. I believe it is important to find your joy and purpose through this journey called life. No matter where you find yourself currently, I'm excited to share this journey with you!

Daily life brings stressors and there are times the stressors overwhelm us. Our background and past experiences, both positive and negative can have a significant impact on our ability to thrive. Our own mental health struggles, relationships and challenging circumstances can increase the complexity of the challenge. What worked in the past is no longer working or you realize you are stuck in old, outdated patterns. Considering or ready to make some changes for a happier, healthier life? Whether it’s a new challenge or old, I am here to help you.

As both a parent and therapist, it is my honor to walk alongside families that are hurting and struggling emotionally. With a specialization in play therapy and over 11 years of experience working with children and teens of all ages, I am committed to helping you and your family navigate the unique challenges you face, and the changing times in which we live. In addition to working with children and teens, I also bring over 11 years of experience working with young adults, individuals, and families in a variety of professional settings.

You can visualize your ideal self, yet anxiety, trauma, and negative habits are holding you back. I have been there and I understand the struggle, but your actions and thoughts are all behavior and they can be changed. With my unique approach as a behavior analyst and trauma-informed coach, we can collaboratively devise a tailored plan for meaningful change. While traditional talk therapy has its merits, I'm not a therapist—I am a behavioral scientist and coach. If you've hit a plateau in your self-help journey or feel stuck in your current behaviors, let's explore a more structured, action-based path to healing and growth.

Are you looking for a compassionate, safe space to process and heal from difficult events that have impacted your life? Or a place to process family and relational dynamics? As a specialist in this area, I can provide professional guidance and support to assist you through this process. I work with individuals, families (e.g. siblings, first-generation children, and parents), and professionals who have experienced life's hardships, pain, and trauma. By working together, we can strive towards recognizing and fulfilling your aspirations, while equipping you with the vital resources to foster innovative perspectives and habits.

Sometimes we all need someone to talk to. Someone that is not a family member or a friend. Your relationships may be strained to a point that you just can't figure out how to move forward, or you can't turn your mind off and it's impacting every area of your life. If you are tired of trying to solve your problems alone, I can help.

Life has a tendency to throw unexpected situations, problems, and experiences at us. During these times, it is wise to seek guidance for our personal lives, marriages, families, and professional situations. Together, we will examine your current life situation, what is achievable, and how to move forward. Characteristics of narcissism, controlling behaviors, and problematic situations can affect one's mental health significantly. I work both with the person who struggles with these problems as well as those who are in relationships with that person. I work with individuals, couples, and families.

I strive to provide a safe and nurturing environment, free of judgment for my clients as they work towards self-understanding and personal empowerment. We will collaborate together to understand the dynamics of their current struggles, compassionately unravel the dynamics of their past, and examine how it has impacted their overall wellness. I am trauma-informed, and have an integrative approach to counseling - which simply means I tailor sessions to fit your unique personality and most effectively meet your most pressing needs.

I help people resolve the trauma, fears, or life transitions that cause depression and anxiety. My approach is direct, respectful, and kind. If you fight unwanted thoughts or behaviors, I can help you end the cycle of secrets, excuses, and lies and reestablish trust. If your family relationships are in chaos, I can help you open up and communicate without escalating emotions. I work in deep confidence and without judgement to help clients uncover the symptoms, events, or situations that keep them from living a life of peace and joy.

Counseling requires a relationship based on trust and mutual respect. My goal for counseling is that you and I will understand and trust one another, identifying your goals and working to overcome whatever obstacles are in your way. I believe that anyone who seeks counseling does so because of a desire to live your best life, and my desire is to help you do just that. With over 20 years of experience as a licensed counselor, I will help you to move toward solutions that will bring about positive change. While my clinical training and biblical worldview inform my approach, your goals and needs are the priority of each session.
