Lesbian Therapists in 77005

The path from growing up quietly queer in a small Midwestern town to living as an out lesbian in the 4th largest city in the country has informed my work within the LGBTQ+ community. I believe that knowledge is an integral part of building acceptance and pride in oneself and the community, and I am eager to continue working with people in all stages of the coming out process. Most recently, my focus has been on HIV prevention and treatment; I am passionate about working with clients who are at high risk for exposure, entering treatment, or working to maintain viral suppression.

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor in the state of Texas and have been providing counseling services since 2017. I work with individuals (18+) and couples to create an open and safe environment where thoughts and feelings can be shared without fear of judgment. Counseling provides the groundwork to process challenges, develop new skills, access inner strength, gain confidence, heal, and flourish. My focus is to empower you to reach your goals by exploring beneath the surface, while helping you to develop skills to address your concerns . I will work with you to customize a holistic treatment plan to fit your needs.

Mental health therapy is a intimate collaboration in self-discovery, relationship preservation, mental health maintenance, and relief of suffering. It is my job to center you and meet you in your challenges (stress, anxiety, trauma, relationship issues, self criticalness, etc.). I provide support to individuals, partners, and families who are motivated towards greater understandings of their experiences in order to find peace and/or heal connections in their relationship with themselves and others.

Are you stressed? Worried? Sad most of the time? Dissatisfied with your life the way it is? Feeling hopeless to change your life the way it is? You are not alone and there is hope for you. If you would like to create a life worth living and even the life you dreamed of having, therapy is one place that can make that happen. I believe we all have the potential to change with the right person to listen and guide us.

Have you ever found yourself saying “I didn’t always use to be like this,” “I need to get back to my old self,” or “I’ve been dealing with a lot lately” and hoping for the insight or tools to change that? I work with adults and LGBTQIA identifying folks just like you: ones that have it within them to thrive again after life challenges, but just need the support to tap into their strengths to get there or support gathering and sorting pieces of life to make sense of everything. I help my clients find relief, empowerment, and happiness by equipping them with the tools they need to better understand themselves.

Are you standing in the face of uncertainty in your life or career and confused as to how to move forward? Does performance paralysis settle in when considering a risk? Having lived through Hurricane Katrina, resulting in an abrupt relocation to St. Louis in 2008 (after forty years in Louisiana), I can relate to life being out of balance, starting over, and the need for grounding. After fourteen years in St. Louis, I've recently chosen to relocate to Houston to be near family and have expanded my virtual practice to several states. Life is about transition, investing in a balanced life, so that we can draw from each area as needed.

I am a seasoned therapist who has over 15 years of clinical experience working with individuals across a broad cultural spectrum. I have a special interest in treating anxiety-related disorders such as stress, generalized anxiety, social anxiety and trauma, but I also address symptoms of depression that often coexist with anxiety. I am experienced in addressing issues that may arise during life transitions, such as parenting, going to college, divorce, empty nest, aging and grief.

I believe that therapy is a tool of self-examination that helps individuals navigate difficult life experiences and know themselves more deeply. It often takes painful experiences or emotions for someone to seek therapy, and I enjoy helping people find new pathways through which to experience a more fulfilling life. I most often work with people navigating depression, anxiety, perinatal and postpartum depression and/or anxiety, or general life stressors (such as relationship issues or a new job).

*I see clients both virtually and in person.* I want to help you attain your goals and create a happier and more balanced life. I offer a safe and non-judgmental environment to enable you to freely talk and explore your feelings.

Anxiety, depression and struggles from life challenges is not uncommon. I use modalities such as Exposure Therapy (ERP), ACT and CBT to help you get your life back.

There are many reasons people come to therapy. We all have an innate need to belong, be supported, and understood. I place a strong emphasis on the therapeutic relationship and provide a safe space for clients to move forward. This emotional space for clients allows them to examine their personal experiences in a confidential and nurturing environment. While building a unique relationship clients can explore their personal feelings and emotions, habits, insecurities, beliefs and perceptions with curiosity rather than judgment and ultimately become the best version of themselves.
