As a Board Certified Behavior Analyst (BCBA, LBA in Texas), I work with children, adolescents, and families navigating challenges related to behavior, communication, emotional regulation, or developmental differences. Many of my clients feel overwhelmed by daily struggles—such as meltdowns, difficulty with transitions, social challenges, or uncertainty about how to best support their loved one. They are seeking guidance, practical tools that work in real life, and a clear path forward toward growth, independence, and more positive family experiences.

My typical counseling approach, and that of my colleagues at Homestead Hope Counseling, is anchored firmly and unapologetically in the Christian world-view. We do so with a clear, unwavering theistic paradigm that acknowledges God's sovereignty in all things, as He is intimately interested in, and responsive to, each person and all they experience. Therefore, unless otherwise directed by the client, our approach will inherently involve the use of biblical revelation and the principles found therein, when ever appropriate and applicable. The Christ centered world view is paramount to my approach to healing.

If there is one thing that I’ve learned in my more than fifteen years working as a therapist, it is that life can be rough no matter who you are. And sometimes rough in ways you never thought it could be. How do you handle those rough times? Have the ways you thought would fix the problems not worked or only led to more frustration? I work with individuals and couples feeling lost or unsure of what to do when they experience rough times. Having been through tough times in life myself, I love working with people to help them find the best ways for them to deal with whatever rough patch they may find themselves in.

As a counselor, I recognize that healing is deeply personal and finding the right support matters. You may find we are a good fit if you value understanding the scientific & social roots of your struggles, exploring how past experiences shape the present, while staying solution-focused with a strong sense of agency & autonomy. My approach weaves together your personal values, spiritual and religious beliefs, family of origin, cultural and societal norms, social functioning, and neurobiological science to create a holistic picture of who you are — collaboratively working toward your individual hopes, goals, and day-to-day well-being.

Reaching out takes great courage, especially when someone is seeking guidance. Life has the tendency to cause people to cope in ways that are not necessarily beneficial. They may develop problems like depression or anxiety as a result of stressors. Or, they may turn towards abusing substances as a way to change how they feel. Reaching out for help during this time may be scary and seem impossible. My goal, as a therapist, is to come alongside my clients so that they don’t walk alone through whatever may be troubling them. I hope to be able to help anyone struggling to deal with life on life’s terms.

I usually slow things down early in therapy so we can actually make sense of what’s been feeling confusing or hard to put into words. I ask a lot of questions and stay close to the details, even when they’re easy to move past.

Feeling stuck can be incredibly isolating. Whether it’s grief, life changes, addiction, painful experiences from the past, or constant worry about the future, many people find themselves caught in patterns they don’t know how to move out of. Often, we were never really taught how to grieve, cope with hardship, forgive, or show ourselves compassion, which can leave people feeling ashamed for struggling or unsure how to move forward.

We all have strengths and skills that help us overcome obstacles. However, certain problems can sometimes surface that cause us to get discouraged, distracted, or fearful as we move through life. If you have difficulty finding the right strategy to address these challenges, you can get stuck.

FAQ - About Therapy for Seniors
Is one ever too old for mental health therapy?
Individuals of all ages can benefit from mental health therapy. Indeed, older adults in particular may benefit from the social and psychological support a therapist can provide; the topics that older adults address in therapy may simply differ from those of younger clients. Seniors should seek out a therapist who has experience working with older individuals and who is well-versed in addressing common concerns among elderly individuals, such as depression, anxiety, loneliness, and physical mobility challenges.

How is counseling for seniors and the elderly different from counseling for other age groups?
In general, counseling offers an opportunity for clients to process difficult life events and develop coping skills they can use outside of the therapy session. Therapists who specialize in working with elderly clients generally have the same framework but may place a special emphasis on specific topics, such as caregiver relationships and reducing loneliness. They may be specially equipped to deal with certain physical conditions or facilitate discussion surrounding end-of-life topics. Counseling for the elderly may also place a greater emphasis on social work-type topics to ensure that geriatric clients have access to necessary resources, such as food, a safe home environment, and healthcare.

How can therapy improve the quality of life of aging individuals?
Therapy for aging adults can greatly improve quality of life by providing an opportunity for them to process difficult emotions related to end-of-life, navigate relational or caregiver challenges, and develop coping skills for common mental health conditions, like anxiety or depression. Subsequent reductions in negative emotions and mental health disorder symptoms can make day-to-day living much more manageable for aging adults and those that care for them. The ongoing relationship with a trusted therapist can also help seniors combat loneliness and provide a sense of structure for their routine.

What are the qualities to look for in therapists who see seniors?
Seniors counselors, like mental health counselors in general, should be kind, empathetic, skilled at listening, and knowledgeable about their particular area of expertise. Counselors specializing in working with the senior population should be very familiar with the aging process in general and the common conditions that the elderly can face, such as dementia, depression, loneliness, and/or physical illness. Many senior counselors are also well-equipped to help caregivers and families navigate the aging process of their loved ones, and they may draw on Interpersonal Therapy to help facilitate improved interactions between seniors and those that care for them.
