Therapists in Dallas, TX

Your personal experiences of trials and tribulations have the power to curate meaning and purpose in your life. I believe that each of us are inevitably interconnected in our human experience and that our systems shape much of our self-understanding in the context of our worldview. I view my role as helping clients reach their capacities for healing and meaning through self-reflection, connection and redirection.

From partner communication to intimacy issues, pre-marital counseling, separation or remarriage, parent-child reconciliation, co-parenting, grief/loss, traumas, life transitions and many others, I offer a safe and non-judgmental space for exploration and growth. I believe that our lives are deeply intertwined with the relationships and environments we engage with and I aim to equip you with the tools to create, rebuild and nurture warm, supportive relationships and overcome life's challenges.

I am passionate about helping clients find the awareness, insight, and resilience they need to overcome challenges and live a joyful, meaningful, and fulfilling life. My approach in counseling is based on ensuring you feel you are in a supportive space so you can explore your current thoughts and feelings, process past experiences, and envision and achieve your goals. Clients describe me as calm, caring, and understanding. My goal is to offer fresh perspectives to those seeking change along with the collaboration, skills, and tools needed to create a path forward.

Hi. My goal as an African American male therapist is to provide you with a platform that helps you through a journey of self-discovery and healing.

I work to help you cultivate resilience, gain clarity, & enhance the quality of your relationships. My ultimate goal is to help you create a better version of your current self.

I specialize in helping individuals manage anxiety, depression, relationship issues, grief, and trauma. My treatment approach is based on evidence-based techniques such as EMDR, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Internal Family Systems, and Acceptance and Mindfulness strategies. I have an understanding that each person's unique experience of life requires an individualized treatment plan, tailored to their specific needs.

I approach therapy with the ideology that life is a culmination of interconnected parts. Feelings stem from experiences, experiences influence perceptions, and subsequently guide many of the decisions one makes in life. When individuals experience stagnation or challenges, it may be connected to an array of life experiences. This may lead to a challenge with seeing beyond that which is. The subsequent result may serve as a breeding ground for emotional and physical pain, challenges in interpersonal relationships and unresolved grief.

We all have resilience within us. No matter what obstacles we find in our way, with the right tools, we can emerge from fear and pain and build a life with purpose and meaning. We all have times in our lives when issues arise involving depression, anxiety, grief, anger, addiction and recovery, parenting, or marital problems. Together we can chart a course to help you flourish.

Sometimes life transitions, stressors, trauma, or grief can feel overwhelming. No matter how hard you may be trying to work things out on your own, it may feel like you are not gaining ground. Change and healing don't happen in isolation, and we all need help at some point. Having a caring professional walk with you through challenging times can be incredibly helpful. I have 15+ years of experience working with clients through life transitions and challenges and helping them establish goals and create change.
