Is emotional pain, anxiety, depression, or lack of focus interfering with your personal fulfillment? Life may have given you trauma, but together we can create a new and better direction. Difficult relationships, grief, unwanted or racing thoughts, cause panic attacks, sleeplessness, fears, anger, or addictions. As an experienced counselor and retired school teacher, I am trained to address these symptoms using EMDR, Prayer, Cognitive Behavior Therapy, and more. Whether it's in my office in Boerne or online, Therapy can be the key in opening new doors for you.

From the outside it looks like you have it all figured out, but on the inside you’re feeling insecure and anxious. You’ve realized you might want to make some changes and prioritize your mental health and I'm so happy you're here! You might also feel isolated and lost. If you have trauma from your family of origin or have lost loved ones you might be feeling especially alone. You are not alone. I work with lots of folks who are going through similar things. Isolation, depression, and anxiety are especially common even in those who look like they have it all together and I'm here to help you make it through.

My approach is unique in that I offer both Counseling and Biofeedback services. Much of my work with clients revolves around the truth that we are all born perfect and worthy of love. For some of us, traumatic experiences may have taught us that closing off our heart is safer or creating defenses protects us from being hurt again. We may hold core beliefs about ourselves and the world such as: “I am worthless and unworthy of love”, “the world is not safe”, “people I love and care about will leave me”…and so on. I will guide you as you break free from the past, feel safe and calm, and begin to live fully in the present.

My passion is to come alongside clients on the journey into their true potential. This may involve correcting negative beliefs formed in the past such as "unlovable, unworthy, never enough" and learning to cope with feelings of discomfort, loneliness, and overwhelmed. Helping adult children of addicted and dysfunctional families find their way into deeper meaningful connections while letting go of codependent behaviors and building boundaries remains close to my heart. I believe clients of all stages, gender, background, nationality, and sexual identity deserve hope and healing and feel honored to journey with you.

Together, we will strive to find the tools necessary to overcome life’s challenges. We will draw from your strengths and navigate through rough waters. Hope is within reach, and happiness is attainable.
