Grief Therapists in Dallas, TX

My primary goal as a therapist is to provide my clients with the tools to live productive lives. We all have a story to tell and a journey to take. The vital component of everyone’s journey is the paths they take and identifying their catalyst to achieve change. The driving force in my career path is the desire to reach members of society that have a misconception regarding counseling and increase their knowledge of the therapeutic process. Also, providing individuals with a voice and the courage to use it. Letting your voice be a positive reflection of who you are can trigger change.

As humans we are greatly impacted by the vast range of feelings and emotions that accompany life events such as joy, anger, sadness, fear, and disgust. We also all share in the experience of suffering, pain, confusion, and loss . However, just as we are inflicted with deep pain, so are we capable of change, growth, and finding satisfaction. It is my desire to provide a warm and safe space for you to share your experiences, pain, and questions, knowing that they are being held with care, respect, honor, and gentleness. It is crucial to me that you feel comfortable, seen, known, and heard and your well-being will always be prioritized.

I am a bicultural and bilingual clinician who is passionate about serving people in different developmental stages who need guidance and support to find answers for their current struggles. I believe psychotherapy can help to unlock people’s full potential and I consider safety, acceptance, and compassion as the key elements within a therapeutic relationship for healing and change to occur. I also believe that healing occurs when people have reached a deeper understanding of how past and recent experiences have influenced their lives.

I approach therapy with the ideology that life is a culmination of interconnected parts. Feelings stem from experiences, experiences influence perceptions, and subsequently guide many of the decisions one makes in life. When individuals experience stagnation or challenges, it may be connected to an array of life experiences. This may lead to a challenge with seeing beyond that which is. The subsequent result may serve as a breeding ground for emotional and physical pain, challenges in interpersonal relationships and unresolved grief .

Sometimes we can get thrown into changes we weren't ready for. Maybe the change is welcomed. Regardless of whether these changes are expected or unexpected, I am confident that together, we can embrace these changes in the midst of joy or grief & become our own resources as we learn new ways to approach the issue or the situation. This is the heart of my therapeutic approach. I believe individuals, couples, & families have the ability to change. I am ready to walk with you on your journey & look forward to discovering ways which strengthen your approach to life's changes.

Life Pushes, and when it does, it can feel as though your world has tilted on its axis. Stress brings with it storms: emotional, physical, relational, financial, spiritual, including storms unique to caring for aging parents. When these storms come, it helps to have someone to trust with your story; someone to hold the "flashlight" figuratively speaking, in order to help you identify your life values, navigate your personal goals, and develop tools so your energy is spent living your life instead of existing. It is my desire to help you develop ways to exchange your current stress for strength.

I treat clients that have general mental health issues. I enjoy working with adolescents and adults who need help with depression, anxiety, career, anger, and loss . I partner with attorneys and the court system to perform assessments for legal proceedings. I work with personal injury attorneys, family attorneys, and criminal attorneys. I partner with immigration attorneys to perform mental health assessments for clients seeking "extreme psychological hardship", alylum, U-Visa, or VAWA waiver.

Our lives are not like compartments. Each area impacts others whether that is relationships, work, or health. My passion is bringing a holistic mind, body perspective so that you experience clarity, confidence, completeness, and peace through healthy actions and thoughts.
