Therapists in Sunset Valley, TX

I am deeply committed to addressing collective cultural issues and helping those break free from the confines of cultural and familial expectations. For those whose lives have been impacted by childhood abuse, persistent people-pleasing tendencies, or feelings of being the odd one out due to a divergent family path, I stand ready to provide therapeutic support tailored to your needs. I firmly believe that every experience you've had, whether positive or negative, merits validation. Together, we will navigate the intricate web of cultural norms and delve into your personal needs, empowering you to craft the life you envision.

Clients who work with me learn to better understand their emotional triggers, work to overcome life’s setbacks, manage stress more productively, communicate with others more effectively, and set healthy boundaries. My approach involves getting to know each of my clients, beyond what has brought them into therapy. I seek to understand what your goals are for this journey, and we together discuss how I can support you in working on what can be changed, and learning to cope with people and situations that we cannot change.

I have a strong passion and desire to help others and this passion and desire is what ultimately led me to the therapy profession. My therapeutic background consists of working with clients who have had issues with anxiety, depression, ADHD, relationship issues, substance abuse, and conflict resolution.

We travel various paths throughout our lives, weaving experiences together writing the story of who we are. Experiences may cause us to question the path, and suddenly our story no longer reflects the life we intended to live. At these times of questioning, we must explore how to proceed.

What meridian lines do you need to guide you to your destination? Let’s work together to find how your story shifted from your intended path, and let’s find how your journey continues.

Anxiety is meant to keep you safe from possible threats, but, when it gets too active, anxiety can be exhausting. The mind may race with questions and worries that don't have solutions. The body can respond with tension and feel like a current of electricity has been turned on. Your emotions may go from zero to sixty and be more reactive. You may view the world through a lens of danger. It can take a toll on how present you are in your life, your job, and your relationships.

Telehealth Only! I have one rule in session: We have to laugh at least once. Life is hard, work can be stressful, parenting can be chaotic, relationships can be confusing, and sometimes we are just not okay!

With a mindfulness approach, we can help you find your safe place. We can change how you relate to the world and your suffering in a manner that benefits you. In a life that can sometimes be a rollercoaster, we will work together to handle the ups and downs.
