Sleep or Insomnia Therapists in Dallas, TX

I strongly believe in the potential of human beings to access their inner resources to create change and empower themselves to have the quality of life they want and they deserve. I am a Spanish/English Bilingual Therapist who works with adults. As an immigrant myself, I understand cross-cultural and acculturation situations that hinder daily life due to immigration processes. Part of my focus as a therapist is to comprehend and work with the nuances of different backgrounds and cultural needs. I have been a hypnotherapist for over 14 years. I have extensive training and experience in Traditional and Ericksonian Hypnosis. I also have training in healing emotional wounds through regressive techniques. I truly believe hypnosis is a magnificent technique to help clients reach out their inner resources, create change and empower themselves. As an active member of the North Texas Society of Clinical Hypnosis, I’ve had the opportunity to be part of international congresses in Mexico and Costa Rica as well as facilitated webinars with similar groups of professionals in Italy, France and Reunion Island.

I believe that therapy is for anyone seeking to improve their lives and their relationships. Sometimes life gets difficult to manage and we feel overwhelmed by expectations of ourselves and those around us. You may find it difficult to understand past experiences that remain hurtful or that continue to cause difficulty in navigating current relationships both personally and professionally. Traumatic experiences, grief/loss and life transitions can leave us feeling lost, doubtful, anxious and depressed. What if I told you that you can find the peace you need to live a life fulfilled? Well…you have already taken the first step!

You've already taken a brave step. Seeking therapy means you have a desire to engage in life in a different way. Across their diverse backgrounds, my clients have all decided they want something more, and I have the privilege of watching them get there. By establishing a safe space for expression and exploration, I'll join you as you tolerate and, when ready, lean into uncomfortable thoughts, feelings and experiences. I empower clients by supporting them as they integrate techniques associated with overcoming challenges, increasing resilience and joy, building courage to challenge fears, and living more wholeheartedly.

The client and I are partners in developing the skills necessary for managing the stresses of life while determining what a meaningful life looks like for them. Although we look at the past to learn from it, the client and I generally focus on the present and future and the unique strengths of the client. This collaborative model of therapy aids the client in taking more control of their life.

I believe symptoms and problems carry messages to us from deep within ourselves, much like dreams tend to do. This isn't always the case, but often it is, if you know how to look and listen. I see my job as helping you to read and make sense of those messages. To me psychotherapy is for learning your way around your own psyche. It's for becoming as fully yourself as possible. To be ambitious, it's for cultivating soul. My hope is to offer direction and stability in an increasingly disorienting world. I hope working together we can renew your faith in life having meaning and purpose.

I have extensive experience working with people coping with different types of issues ranging from mild adjustment difficulties to chronic and severe psychosis. I have worked with clients in various treatment settings, including out-patient clinics, a university counseling center, a partial hospitalization program, nursing homes, psychiatric in-patient treatment, residential substance abuse treatment programs, and private practice. My areas of specialization include relationship issues, loss / grief, self-esteem, depression, anxiety, and post-partum adjustment. In addition, I treat both individuals and couples.

In these uncertain, anxious and troubled times, many people are experiencing high levels of stress, anxiety and depression. Many are experiencing increased social isolation and loneliness. Many are in need of a skilled, supportive therapist who can provide perspective and help them navigate their way. I can help. I offer strong specialty in treating anxiety and depression, trauma (PTSD), and relationship/sexual problems (gay & straight). I find it especially rewarding working with grieving clients, those suffering from chronic & terminal illness, men's issues, and helping men & women heal from emotional, physical & sexual abuse.

Being a Licensed Professional Counselor in Texas for many years, I have enjoyed a type of therapy that allows an individual to find freedom through acceptance of their issues rather than running from the reality of their existence. As we come to understand our past and how it has shaped us, we can then begin the practice of choosing differently for ourselves in the present and for our future. This search is a sacred process where therapist and client join together, rather than a therapy done 'to' you as a client. I would like to join in that process with you!

Individuals come in for counseling for a variety of reasons. While counseling may not be able to make the situation just disappear or not hurt, I want you to know that, together, we can make this situation less scary and painful by creating a safe space for you to share your story. I will assist you to overcome obstacles and alleviate distress you are currently facing to live a happier, healthier, and more fulfilling life. Together, we can create an opportunity for growth and change within you by implementing healthy skills to practice self-care and improve positive emotions, experiences, mindfulness, and authenticity.

Anxiety, hopelessness, irritability, distrust, trouble sleeping, lack of motivation, and low self-esteem are all signals that your body is trying to process and cope with something. Your past experiences and present environment shape the way new dynamics, trauma, interpersonal relationships, and loss affect you and this is different for each person. You may notice changes in your thoughts, behaviors, and feelings; perhaps new physical symptoms. Disruptions in connection, contentment, confidence, and peace happen in life. Together, we will identify your body’s signals, and the areas of your life you would like to be different.
