Therapists in Frisco, TX

The most important aspect of therapy is a trusting relationship in which one feels valued, understood, recognized and seen. I work with people who want to understand the connections between past experiences and patterns in their current lives to have more satisfying relationships. The people I work with want to feel connected to others, repair past relationships, participate in corrective and reparatory experiences, understand their feelings, actions and thoughts, and be at peace with themselves. Many suffer from depression, anxiety, trauma, body image or eating, and find themselves in challenging periods of transitions.

My therapeutic philosophy involves utilizing a holistic approach incorporating Gestalt and Adlerian therapies. As a Licensed Professional Counselor who specializes in athletes, children, adolescents, and young adults, I frequently work with clients experiencing issues related to poor sport or school performance, life changes during adolescence, life transitioning from college to career, parenting issues, sibling relationships, and divorce family transitioning. Topical issues may include low self-esteem , ADHD, transitioning from athletic identity, peer relationships, anger management, self-mutilation, eating disorders, and self-empowerment. A fundamental element in my approach is establishing the therapeutic relationship through rapport and building trust between the client and the therapist.

Do you find yourself struggling with depression, anxiety, obsessions, or other symptoms but are uncertain as to why you continue to struggle? Do you find yourself excited by a new relationship or work situation only to find yourself repeating similar patterns again? Maybe the stresses of daily living are getting to you and need better ways of coping, but are unsure where to start. Or perhaps you are generally dissatisfied with your life, but unsure about what in particular is getting to you.

My clients are adults of all ages working through a wide range of issues, such as depression, anxiety, addiction, grief, spiritual disconnection, relationship difficulties, and more. I have a particular interest and additional experience with the LGBTQ population, young adults working to establish their identities, those working through painful grief journeys, and those who are exploring their faith or spirituality. My goal is always to create a space free from judgment where you can explore who you are, who you want to be, and how you can get there!

I have a passion for helping people whether it be teens, adults, couples, families, and individuals struggling with grief, stress, anxiety, depression, self-esteem, and marital and familial conflict. My goal is to specialize in trauma in relationships, conflict, infidelity in marriage, and communication issues that plagues couples and families.

It can be overwhelming to find a counselor or sex therapist. Sharing your private life and struggles is difficult. Whether you are experiencing anxiety, depression, relationship conflicts, intimacy issues, sexual dysfunction or dissatisfaction, sexual identity, uncertainty about your quality of life, or any number of emotions, it can be challenging to know where to go or who to turn to make things better. My role as a therapist is to work with you to face challenges, find solutions, and help improve your life. You will not have to do it alone.
