Sandplay Therapists in Hempstead, TX

Do you feel like you've been trying on your own to improve or you simply do not even know where to start? Maybe you feel that it would help to talk with someone that is not part of your friends/family circles? It can feel overwhelming when your problems seem too big to figure out on your own. In counseling, you have a space to freely and openly discuss difficult topics and sort out and process all of life's difficult issues and come out feeling empowered and at peace.

Are you feeling disconnected from friends and family, tired, sad, overwhelmed, confused, doubtful, anxious, stuck, like you need something different and better. Would you like to gradually start enjoying life, feel more connected, energized and start using your hidden potential for a more fulfilling life? I aim to work with you in a safe, warm and friendly environment while offering the necessary comprehensive care. In a soothing atmosphere and by combining the latest techniques with years of experience, I strive to provide my patients with excellence in treatment.

Maybe you feel overwhelmed with juggling it all: work, relationships, your children/their needs, etc. Maybe it feels difficult to feel present or connected to yourself/others. Whether therapy is for you, your teen, or your child, trying to figure out how to feel "unstuck" or how to cope can be difficult. Sometimes life throws experiences that can leave a person feeling confused, hopeless, or discouraged. My approach in counseling is trauma-informed as I recognize that every person has had struggles that have made them question themselves or their direction in life.

So often we live our lives "stuck." Stuck in the same patterns of thinking, the same unhealthy habits, the same problems in our relationships. Our best efforts may not be enough to free us. Other times, our lives are disrupted by unexpected difficulties, like loss, trauma, or infidelity. The process of counseling can be both challenging and life-changing, and is frequently a means which provides refuge, freedom, and restoration in relationship. Whatever your present difficulties, we are dedicated to partnering with you by offering a genuine, caring relationship, quality interventions, and an unwavering hope for healing.

As a LPC Associate supervised by Kayleigh Anderson, LPC-S, I enjoy working with adults and adolescents as they deal with life adjustments, depression, anxiety, and trauma-related symptoms.

Working with me may include mindfulness techniques, cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), dialectical behavioral therapy (DBT), parts work, and expressive therapies with an emphasis on noticing what our bodies and emotions may be trying to tell our thoughts.

Trauma, grief, stress, anxiety and depression can all effect how we view life. The thoughts that run through our minds and feelings in our hearts effect our bodies, behaviors and reactions. The first step to regaining real healthy control over your life is building awareness of your body, emotions, thoughts and behaviors. Learning healthy ways to cope is equally important. There are many moving parts that are crucial for good mental health functioning. Having a treatment plan and an experienced professional to help guide you through all these moving parts will help ease the struggles that go along with your journey.

Therapy is often times a difficult and personal journey that one enters for a variety of reasons. It provides a safe place for people to process and work through circumstances while also offering valuable insight and perspective into whatever journey they may find themselves on. I feel humbled and a sense of gratitude that you would allow me to be a part of this very personal journey that you have chosen to go on. My philosophy is to welcome & embrace you regardless of where you are at in the journey and walk beside you as you see it to it's end.

If you are on the fence about starting therapy, we completely understand, and that is why we are committed to providing a positive and comfortable experience here.

Therefore, therapy always goes at your pace, and we value interactive feedback while setting goals and coming up with a plan. Every single person, child, couple and family is unique; therefore, we design a custom treatment plan based on your unique needs and desires.

Hi everyone! I'm sure it can be intimidating starting the therapeutic process. Having to identify areas in our lives we may need help with can be an overwhelming task.

My approach is collaborative and respectful, with the focus on assisting clients with utilizing the strengths they possess to problem solve and facilitate change for themselves.

Life is tough, and the journey is hard. Are you finding the journey of life overwhelming or too tough?
