My theoretical framework is Relational Psychoanalytic Therapy which focuses on assimilating cognitive insight and emotional attachment. Trauma (PTSD, anxiety, depression) corrupts the value of words and disrupts the bridge between feelings, thoughts, and behavior. Relational analysis examines the elements of rupture and psychological injury related to developmental derailments. I have extensive training in psychodynamic therapy. I started my analytical training in 1992 at the Jung Educational Center of Houston, TX; The Masterson Institute of New York City; and The Center for Psychoanalytic Studies in Houston, TX.

I work with those who struggle with anxiety disorders, depression, ADHD, insomnia, PTSD, smoking cessation and weight management. I utilize Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) which focuses on targeting unhelpful patterns of thinking and behavior that cause mood symptoms to linger. CBT is evidence based and involves structured content and exercises within sessions and "homework" exercises between sessions. CBT exercises and homework seek to identify and challenge unhelpful thought patterns and improve positive coping skills and confidence. I am also certified in cognitive processing therapy (CPT) and prolonged exposure (PE) for PTSD.

Sometimes the reasons we seek therapy are clear to us – a specific event, stressor, or problem behavior feels unmanageable. Other times, our motivation is unclear, but a nagging feeling is telling us something's not right. I assure you that whatever has led you to this page is important and deserves to be unpacked. I work with clients of all walks of life, but am particularly experienced in working with teens, young adults, and older adults. I work with clients experiencing anxiety, depression, major life transitions, grief, and identity exploration. I have specialized training in perinatal mental health and birth trauma.

As a therapist my driving passions are to help people overcome trauma, de-stigmatize mental health, and advocate for counseling, not just as a means of addressing mental illness but as a tool for self-exploration, healing, and growth. I know that therapy, or any commitment to change for that matter, can be scary and uncomfortable at times but I provide a calming space and an empathetic and unconditionally caring partner in your journey of self-discovery, healing, and growth. I truly believe that counseling can be a means to a better, more satisfying and comfortable life for everyone.

I help you to see your symptoms as a meaningful response to concerns that you have about your life and yourself. I help you become aware of what is keeping you from living the way you want to live. I help you to get clear about what you want in the way of love, work (expressing yourself) and enjoyment of life and to use your thoughts, feelings, intentions, talents and strengths to get on a path towards satisfying those desires. I help people heal from trauma. I don't believe drugs are good treatment and will help you withdraw from them.

The uncertainty of healing from within can be challenging due to feeling stuck triggered by fear and loss of control. Struggling with the stressors of life often leads to anxiety, depression, grief, and addiction. With compassion and empathy, vulnerability can be empowering when you feel safe and secure enough to regulate negative thoughts, emotions, and behaviors. Collaborating together to prioritize your genuine mental and emotional needs is the main approach in which to foster personal growth.

Is online therapy a good option?

What’s the difference between a psychologist, a therapist, and a counselor?
Therapists, psychologists, and counselors are all licensed mental health professionals. In the US, psychologists have earned a doctoral degree. The terms “therapist” and “counselor” are used somewhat interchangeably, but generally therapists offer longer-term, mental health care, while counselors offer shorter-term care that may focus on one domain, such as marriage, career, or academic challenges.
What type of therapist is right for me?
Clients should consider factors such as insurance coverage and their primary reason(s) for seeking therapy to determine the type of professional best suited to their needs. Someone struggling with mental health challenges such as depression or anxiety, for example, may wish to seek out a clinical psychologist or therapist, while someone navigating career obstacles or marital upheaval may benefit from seeing a counselor who can offer short-term, targeted support.
Is everyone in the Psychology Today Therapy Directory a licensed therapist?
The Psychology Today directory lists providers who offer legitimate mental health services to the public, including psychologists, psychiatrists, social workers, and counselors. Many have been licensed by the country or state where they practice; providers whose license or primary credential has been verified by Psychology Today are signified by a “Verified” symbol. Some clinicians or organizations provide services for which their state or country does not offer licenses, such as pastoral counseling. They may be selectively included without the “Verified” seal.
What type of therapy is right for me?
The type of therapy best suited to a particular individual depends on several factors, including their primary reason for seeking therapy, their preferred timeline (some therapy types last for a set number of sessions, while others are open-ended), and their personality and preferences—some may prefer a more structured approach. For many individuals, multiple types of therapy could provide a good fit.
Is online therapy cheaper than in-person therapy?
Many therapists charge the same amount for online therapy as they do for in-person therapy—though clients may still find this cost-effective if it cuts down on their transportation costs. Health insurance plans often offer equivalent coverage for online and in-person therapy; indeed, in many places, they are legally required to do so. Text-based or on-demand therapy apps may be cheaper than traditional one-on-one psychotherapy; however, the practice may be less effective and is not likely to be covered by insurance.
