Therapists in Denton, TX

In a world where we can only see the negative in ourselves, I want to help you see the positive in you. It is my hope to help those who seek to find a better emotional and social functioning to improve their overall satisfaction of life. Depression, anxiety, stress, and other health conditions can take over your world and make it seem as if there is only darkness. But it is through observation and analysis that we begin to understand ourselves and what we can do. It is my desire to help you understand the issues that may be keeping you from moving forward and living your positive life to the fullest and best it can be.

You know all the right things to do, exercise, hobbies, spending time with friends and family, but something is still wrong. You feel like you should be enjoying time with your loved ones but can’t figure out why you don’t. You wonder where the “you” you used to know has gone. You don’t know who you are outside of who you love or what you do. You know what you’re required to do but not what you want to do. You started your career with the belief that you would make a difference in the broken system only to realize that you are now feeling broken.

Many people struggle with stress, depression, anxiety, grief, parenting dilemmas, relationship/separation/divorce, trauma, self-esteem, or spiritual issues. Many also need to heal unresolved pain, guilt, or their past. These are all excellent reasons to seek therapy.

I would love to partner with you to help you rediscover joy and fulfillment if you live anywhere in Texas.

I am here to help those who are struggling to enjoy life, whether that is due to depression, anxiety, stress, trauma, relational distress, or life adjustments. Together we can discover the changes that will bring you peace, strength, and healing. It is important to me that you feel safe and understood. My goal is to help you understand how your life experiences have shaped the way you think and feel and how you relate to others. This insight can be used to challenge false beliefs you have created about yourself and the world. We cannot always control our circumstances, but we can learn to be secure within ourselves.

"I knew it would be hard, but why does everyone else seem to be handling it better than me?" "I'm doing it right, but I don't feel like enough." I get it! This period in life is different and difficult. Life transitions, like going off to college, living on your own, parenting, marriage, adulting, and divorce are all fraught with self-doubt and judgments.

Indeed, in this world there is trouble, darkness, violence, and loss. Looking for light and meaning can seem hopeless. When you feel that you have lost your way; when you feel that you have lost your true self altogether, trying to fight for your peace alone, I am here to help you. I am here to help you seek the truth and be transformed by the renewal of your mind. It is my desire to help clients identify the messages they believe, often subconsciously, beneath the rhythms of daily life. These messages are often memory-informed and can interrupt our relationships, thought process, health, functioning, and self-perception.

People are whole and deserve to discover those facets of themselves that create who they are. It is easy to hide aspects of the self for favor of what others want from us. But what is it that you want? Finding our authentic self can be daunting and can feel like just another area to explore in an already chaotic and busy world. It is worth exploring though. Asking for guidance in understanding ourselves to better understand the world around us is a massive strength. My ideal client is someone wanting to gain self-awareness and grow towards their goals. It is not just the goal but the journey in getting there. One moment at a time.
