It can be difficult going out of your comfort zone and speaking to a stranger about your internal/external battles.

I prioritize overcoming any obstacles and ensuring you succeed in your journey towards wellness.

The path of progress comes from collaboration in an atmosphere of cooperation, education, and insight. Whether our stress is around our internal needs, people close to us, or with the state of the world, the counseling relationship is about accessing and utilizing your innate ability to learn and grow from where you are into the better life you seek. Covid-19 has disrupted nearly all our connections with friends, family, work, and community. This has brought out the unfulfilled need for connection in relationships already stressful, and has inspired people to find creative ways of strengthening connection.

If there is something you want to change about your life - you can! It just takes some knowledge and some planning. Today there are solution focused therapies that many people have used to deal with depression, anxiety, and addictions.

I specialize in three types of clients - couples hanging on by a thread, men who are less than thrilled at the idea of attending therapy, and individuals that live under a constant state of performance pressure. As someone who has lived and survived all three of these scenarios personally, I've got a ton of empathy and a box of tools ready for people motivated to achieve change. Whether you're picking up the pieces from infidelity, exhausted from fighting about the same tired topics, or struggling to escape the voices in your head that beat you down, I'm honored to pull up a chair next you and begin sorting through the mess.

I am most passionate in working with couples, adolescent females, and young adults. I am also an EMDR therapist. My goal is to assist individuals and couples on discovering and solidifying aspects of yourselves and your relationships to experience the greatest satisfaction and appreciation of yourself and others. It is my hope that you would enter sessions knowing that you are capable of addressing your problems and will gain more tools and insight by committing to therapy. I strive not to heal my clients, but to help my clients heal themselves.

Welcome. My name is Samatha and I specialize in areas often related to interpersonal trauma such as post-traumatic stress, anxiety, depression, grief, relationship problems, and issues of social inequity. Interpersonal trauma can include anything from childhood trauma that occurs in the family of origin, to ongoing discrimination in everyday life. Often times, trauma interferes with our ability to trust others and the world around us. This makes it very difficult to feel safe and secure in our own skin. It can be challenging to engage in the present moment and feel fulfilled, and it can compromise our health in many ways.

Life Pushes, and when it does, it can feel as though your world has tilted on its axis. Stress brings with it storms: emotional, physical, relational, financial, spiritual, including storms unique to caring for aging parents. When these storms come, it helps to have someone to trust with your story; someone to hold the "flashlight" figuratively speaking, in order to help you identify your life values, navigate your personal goals, and develop tools so your energy is spent living your life instead of existing. It is my desire to help you develop ways to exchange your current stress for strength.

Thank you for your interest in my practice. My passion is helping those with learning, cognitive, psychological, and social skill difficulties navigate the complex evaluation and treatment process. I am licensed and trained to practice psychology in the state of Texas. I received my Doctoral degree in Clinical Psychology from Southern Methodist University and an additional master’s degree in Applied Cognition and Neuroscience with a specialization in Neurological Diagnosis from the University of Texas at Dallas.

Adolescent and adult cognitive behavior therapist with training and experience in depression, anxiety, family stress, suicide, life changes, and emotional dysregulation. I tailor each treatment plan and session to my client's goals and strengths in order to increase emotion regulation, manage ineffective thoughts, and increase distress tolerance. My goal is for clients to develop and implement coping skills, improve interpersonal effectiveness and create a life worth living. I believe that unconditional positive support, honesty, and a little humor are crucial to success in therapy.

We all are capable of living happy and healthy lives.

I would like to help guide you in discovering personal balance and individualized self-worth, as we work to reveal the seemingly lost or hidden strengths buried within.

I believe in Temple Grandin's declaration, "I am different, not less." As a Certified Autism Specialist, I enjoy working with those who are neurodivergent thinkers, have Autism, ADHD, OCD, PDD, or learning differences, or who share traits with neurodivergent thinkers. My Texas-based therapy practice aims for you to feel supported, respected, and guided to find wellness and growth in your life. Are you wanting to improve your relationships, or share with others your truest self? I'd love to help. In addition to in-person, you can meet with me via telehealth throughout the states of Texas and Minnesota.

Do you feel like you’ve come to a place in your life where something’s gotta give? Are you at a crossroads and unsure where you need or want to go? This is where I can help you start your journey to discovering life doesn’t have to be this way anymore. As a counselor, my job isn’t to give you the answers or tell you what to do. I believe you are capable of figuring that out for yourself. My job is to walk alongside you as you wrestle through life’s difficult moments. I get the opportunity to equip, support, challenge and remind you that you are not alone and you are worth the hard work of change.

It is an honor to serve as your psychotherapist. Together, we will help you effectively manage relationships, gain insight, alleviate stress, handle anxiety, and cope with depression.

I use a research-based methodology as well as skillful expertise to help you experience improved health and well-being. I will strive to give you quality care, empathetic understanding, and strong rapport with a competent counselor you can trust. My goal is to help you face life's challenges with confidence.

My primary goal as a therapist is to provide my clients with the tools to live productive lives. We all have a story to tell and a journey to take. The vital component of everyone’s journey is the paths they take and identifying their catalyst to achieve change. The driving force in my career path is the desire to reach members of society that have a misconception regarding counseling and increase their knowledge of the therapeutic process. Also, providing individuals with a voice and the courage to use it. Letting your voice be a positive reflection of who you are can trigger change.

We can all struggle with forgetting our value, that our life and story have meaning and purpose. Whether it be your current life circumstances, broken relationships, or shame that has been weighing you down for far too long, you may have forgotten your own value. It is scary to feel hopeless, to question yourself, make sense of your story, and wonder "what's next for me?" It is daunting to release control over the unknown in whatever season you may be in. You don't have to face it all alone. I would love to journey with you.

Being a Licensed Professional Counselor in Texas for many years, I have enjoyed a type of therapy that allows an individual to find freedom through acceptance of their issues rather than running from the reality of their existence. As we come to understand our past and how it has shaped us, we can then begin the practice of choosing differently for ourselves in the present and for our future. This search is a sacred process where therapist and client join together, rather than a therapy done 'to' you as a client. I would like to join in that process with you!

People enjoy daily routines in life. Going to work, spending time with family and friends, and hobbies that they love to pursue. Sometimes, unhealthy habits intertwine with such routines, such substance use or non-communication with family members. These habits can interrupt our daily routines and turn into an obsession. Instead of looking forward to the weekend to spend time with healthy endeavors, the weekends could be a time to escape or isolate
