Therapists in Fort Hood, TX

I am a 20 year Army Veteran trained in Marriage and Family Therapy as well as Individual counseling techniques. I understand the unique stresses of military life. I have worked with military families both while in the Army and since. I use the Gottman Method for couples counseling. Gottman is considered the gold standard in Couples Counseling, it is one of the best researched therapies with one of the highest success rates.

I believe that every person can benefit from counseling at some point in their life. We all face struggles with achieving our goals, understanding and overcoming hurtful life experiences, or resolving conflicts with others. It can be extremely helpful to have a compassionate, unbiased, and supportive person to talk to when these issues arise.

Are you experiencing difficulty in keeping and developing good, solid relationships with those you love? Has anyone in your family deployed to the Middle East only to return with some form of combat stress - and can't seem to shake it? Perhaps you or someone close is feeling anxious or depressed about life and can't seem to come out of it on their own. However, it is more than possible to get past those disturbing thoughts and feelings and enjoy life again. Person of faith? At your request, I can also offer a spiritual perspective along with a warm, personable approach.

I believe in meeting my clients where they are and helping them to move in the direction they dream of being. No two people are alike, so I treat the individual as an individual without judgment. This therapy allows the client to navigate their treatment better since they are doing the work; I am just here to facilitate their progress. After all, we only get one turn on this rock we call earth. We should all be able to enjoy it to the fullest.

Stress is a natural result of facing life's challenges and necessary for growth. Finding balance allows us to manage stress. With 34 years of experience working with children, adults, couples and families, I can help you and those you love navigate the journey of growth and self-discovery, develop and prioritize strategies for achieving your goals and find balance. I start by performing a solution-focused interview to identify and build upon your unique strengths and resources. I have faith in the perseverance of the human spirit, given the right amount of time, support and the necessary tools.

You don't have to suffer in siIence anymore. In our fast changing world, finding balance can be difficult and may even seem impossible at times. Feelings of helplessness, hopelessness, and the thoughts of giving up make it hard to push forward when you have conflicting goals, objectives, and situations in your life. They can seem to happen all at once, and it feels like they are all demanding our energy, thoughts, and immediate choices in order to progress and change. Anxious or depressing thoughts and feelings accompany the trying times of life, and therapy can be a way to get yourself and/or your family up to optimal functioning.
