Do others look at you and think you “have it all together”? You appear successful on the outside (and you have so much to be proud of), but inside you feel anxious, critical of yourself, & overwhelmed. You’re constantly questioning yourself: Am I good enough? Did I do it right? Did I say that wrong? You may look back on your life and notice experiences from your past that have made it difficult to feel confident in everything you have to offer. It feels like you live in worst-case-scenario mode at all times, and while you want so badly to feel less stressed & more secure in yourself, you haven’t been able to change this on your own.

I am a seasoned therapist who has over 15 years of clinical experience working with individuals across a broad cultural spectrum. I have a special interest in treating anxiety-related disorders such as stress, generalized anxiety, social anxiety and trauma, but I also address symptoms of depression that often coexist with anxiety. I am experienced in addressing issues that may arise during life transitions, such as parenting, going to college, divorce, empty nest, aging and grief.

I love working with women, parents, and educators juggling work-life demands, and adolescents/young-adults adjusting to adulthood. We each have a fundamental need for connection, autonomy, and belonging. Motivation and behavior are specific and variable. I listen, reflect, and ask questions. I translate the science of wellbeing into actionable practices to help clients connect their needs, values, and strengths with their actions and visions; to raise consciousness, cultivate emotional intelligence, explore limiting beliefs, master mindsets, build relational life skills, lean into their purposes; live, love, and lead with intention.

It may be time for considering a therapeutic relationship for improving your quality of life. This type of work may include developing insight and awareness about yourself, learning new and effective coping skills, strengthening the quality of your interpersonal relationships, creating new behavioral choices, and a myriad of other creative solutions.

Have you ever gone to a different country and not understood their native language? How difficult was it for you to get what you needed?

I am Whitney, trained to interpret this language to help you get the ease you need as a parent. You are a good parent, you are here; looking to do all you can for her child. Give me a call!

Drawing on a desire to help people overcome obstacles in their personal relationships, my professional work involves counseling individuals and families in order to achieve conflict resolution and better communication. As a neutral third party, I am better able to identify the challenges my patients face and facilitate positive change. Working with families, it is essential to foster a high level of trust between the therapist and family members. Mutual respect and open communication are essential to the therapeutic process. Engaging patients at their level, I help people find the change that they desire and the strength within themselves to achieve that change.

I believe trust and compatibility are essential to a successful therapeutic relationship. My highest priority is creating a collaborative, safe and accepting environment for fostering change and growth. I work within a broad range of areas including depression, anxiety, life transitions and stressors, couples, parenting and family issues. My areas of specialty include eating disorders, grief and loss and relationship issues. As a Clinical Instructor in the Department of Psychiatry and Behavioral Sciences, Baylor College of Medicine, I enjoy teaching and supervising Clinical Social Work trainees.

I assist clients discover hope and navigate toward healthy goals for body, mind, emotion and soul. My belief is that each person's family environment, early experiences, and past and current social environments play an important role in the development of your personality and perspectives on life. However, these things do not have to define your future. Through a collaborative and trustful therapeutic relationship, every person can overcome past/current struggles and move toward healthy life goals. Also, I enjoy working with LPC-Associates as they develop their model for the work they are doing and will do with clients.

When our relationships aren't working, it can effect all areas of our lives. Whether the problem is communication, sex, intimacy, or facing change, it can be invaluable to have someone guide you to achieve your goals - providing perspective, encouragement, empowerment, and even an occasional kick in the butt. I will help you set and pursue your goals - becoming your best asset, not your own worst enemy. I do this in a LGBTQ-affirrmative and alternative lifestyle-friendly space. Supporting safe, sane, and consensual choices and options.
