Great-West Life Therapists in Magnolia, TX

Special Note: Since the pandemic began, it has developed that communicating with me via email is a faster method for reaching me than by telephone. Different people have different questions about psychology and psychotherapy. Email me with any questions you may have about me or my work and and I will reply as promptly as possible.

Everything can be different, so said Psychologist, Alfred Adler. I believe it, too. We are not trapped in our past, we are locked in our ideas that we hold about ourselves, and about our future... and ideas can change. I invite you to join me in an adventure of finding encouragement, and finding new ideas about your life. I offer counseling sessions which will focus on...Personal Growth... Marriage and Relationship Issues... Communication Skills... Assertiveness Skills... Overcoming Depression... Overcoming Anxiety... Let's Talk- Everything Can Be Different.

Sorting things out is what I can help you with. Talking to a good therapist can & will put an end to your confusion and distress. I offer effective therapy in a comfortable space, for those struggling with their moods or traumatic memories, as well as help for issues related to Autism. I earned my M.A. in clinical psychology. I have been practicing as a Licensed Mental Health Counselor for over 22 years, & I have worked in mental health for over 40 years. Also, I am a Certified Trauma Therapist, CBTI-N (insomnia) therapist, Registered Play Therapist, Certified Autism Specialist & Autplay provider. So, I can help in various ways.

I have been in private practice for 23 years and I am dedicated in providing quality care to my clients in a supportive private practice. I provide Individual, Relationship, Marriage, Family, Child, Adolescent and Adult therapies. I have a Master's Degree in Marriage/Family Therapy. I feel very privileged in my work and consider it a honor they have shared their lives with me. I hold a deep respect for my clients. I offer positive and constructive clinical feedback while maintaining a significant emphasis in listening to my clients' issues. Please feel free to contact my office as I am accepting new clients and CISM referrals.

A calm and undisturbed heart and mind are the life and health of the body...(proverbs 14:30)." I believe in the work I do, and sincerely want to help people live richer, more satisfying lives. Are you living the life you'd like to be living? Are you feeling out of control, angry, empty, depressed, anxious, or just not yourself lately? If these feelings are negatively effecting your life, I can help you regain control of your life. I counsel adolescents and adults suffering from an array of problems.

Despite trying your best, you just don't feel like things are getting better. Imagine a life without anxiety, depression, and without conflict in your relationships. Imagine the weight that would be lifted off your chest! If you are stuck ruminating about the problems in your life and are having trouble sleeping, therapy can teach you powerful techniques to help you go from stressed to calm and teach you how to have peace in your relationships. If you're not sure if therapy or Wilson Counseling is right for you, call to schedule a free 10 minute phone consultation. You can change your life with just a little help.

Consider that the path to pursue your passions and dreams is actually within your reach. What if you could begin this process today, and no longer carry burdens from the past with you? Past traumatic experiences often leave an imprint on the mind/body in such a way that present-day stressors can easily trigger a recurrent emotional/physical stress response. Each environmental trigger validates an automatic physical stress response because the central nervous system is pre-set/pre-wired to be ON ALERT. Stress can be cumulative and create illness or a disease process over time (i.e., fibromyalgia, CFIDS, autoimmune response, etc.).

I have over 35 years experience specializing in working with couples issues using a practical, solution-focused approach. In addition, I work with clients struggling with depression and anxiety related issues.

You are one-of-a-kind. And so, beginning with our first meeting, I will be sure that I clearly understand you and your unique needs. Then, as your therapist, I will work to help you establish and achieve the goals that are immportant to you. Effective psychotherapy supports the emotional healing that leads to wellbeing. My approach includes what I call "relational reflective listening and speaking". It's a process that developes and nurtures the deep respect I have for my patients. In our conversations you and I together will discover new possibilities, new hope that heals the heart.
