My practice is primarily with adults, adolescents and families, who are struggling with stress, depression, anxiety, past trauma and life challenges. Life at times can be hard, and relationships take a lot of work. My mission is to empower my clients to find their inner strengths to lead a happier, more fulfilled life. I provide a relaxed, comfortable environment for my clients to share those things in life they would like to change. I am trained to offer you EMDR Therapy® for PTSD. I use a directive counseling approach, providing homework and guidance, with a multimodal approach to therapy.
In my time as a clinician I have worked with a number of clients who have suffered different traumatic events. I strongly believe that trauma treatment mobilizes, empowers, and restores functioning to individuals. I work with people on a one-to-one basis (individual counseling), and I offer group counseling as well.
I am a Texas State Board of Social Worker Examiners approved Clinical Supervisor. I offer supervision to MSW and LMSW supervisees who are seeking licensure to become an LMSW or LCSW. Supervision is offered to individuals and groups.
