Therapists in Allen, TX

Welcome to the safe space... As a first-generation individual, I am committed to serving individuals from diverse backgrounds, including ethnic minorities, first-generation individuals, immigrants, and those navigating unique cultural contexts. I strive to establish a safe space for clients to explore their life experiences, find healing, and build meaningful connections. I understand that life's journey often comes with emotional, relational, and identity-related struggles. My goal is to provide culturally responsive counseling that acknowledges the unique strengths and challenges that you bring to the space.

Are you trying to handle anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship issues, or simply feeling overwhelmed? Your lived experiences have a huge impact on your mental health. Therapy is a place to process and heal. It takes hard work, bravery, and patience to go through all the heavy "stuff" that you carry around on a daily basis. You do not have to be alone in the process of your healing. The most important thing to me is that my client feels no judgment, is heard, and can trust that I am going to work just as hard as they are to reach their goals.

Unsatisfying sex leaves us feeling inadequate, unloved, and disconnected. You may be fed up with sex feeling like a chore rather than fun and pleasure-filled, feeling like your relationship (with yourself or a partner) has gone stagnant or feeling disappointed, sad, and lonely. You might be wondering how it even got this way. But one thing is for sure: you’re ready for some relief. You’re ready to reconnect with yourself and your partner. You’re ready to have pleasure-filled and fun sex. Most of all, you’re ready to embody your authentic sexual self.

I incorporate my experience at Meridell Achievement Center, which includes working with high-risk individuals that struggled with suicidal ideation/ self-harm/ aggression/ severe depression and anxiety/ and family and social conflict, into my therapeutic technique. Yet, I will work with your unique story by exploring your struggles and unhealthy coping mechanisms to find the turning point that can be reversed using cognitive behavioral therapy and solution focus therapy techniques.
