Adoption Therapists in Highland Village, TX

Hi there! I became a counselor because I genuinely want to help people find hope and remind you that you're not alone in this world. I love working with adults to address the challenges that come with life transitions, depression, anxiety, parenting, parenting preemies and kids with chronic medical conditions, adoption and foster care, grief and loss, multicultural family dynamics, domestic abuse, and many other life circumstances. Whether you're looking for tools or support, I'd be honored to walk this road with you.

Wounded lives, grieving hearts and past emotional scars do not have to become a permanent part of your future. Individuals or couples may feel "stuck" in the midst of personal life struggles such as grief, self-esteem, relationships, job-related stress or the ongoing impact of past abuse. My collaborative empowerment approach, using Cognitive Behavior (CBT) with a mixture of Transactional Analysis (TA) and eclectic techniques, focuses on actively engaging clients. It "provides guidance through life's storms" offering hope and healing in a warm, non-judgmental environment. Counseling is about finding the freedom to write a future you choose to embrace.

Are you facing challenges with anxiety, depression, or relationship issues? With so many "unknowns" all around you, I am here to provide support and understanding through your journey. I also specialize in treating children as young as 3 years old, preteens, adolescents, and adults with trauma, self harm, sexual abuse, and grief. With children, I am skilled in treating behavioral issues, ADHD, and peer-relationship skills. I also use a variety of modalities to help my clients effectively implement healthy coping skills, positive self talk, and work towards a healthier you, using EMDR, CBT, and Play/Activity Therapy.

Perhaps you are feeling overwhelmed, depressed or just need someone to listen and help you problem solve. I don't know you yet, but I do know that by taking this first step in seeking help, it shows that you are resilient, determined and not willing to give up. By seeking counseling, you understand that you don't have to remain where you are. I provide therapy to adolescent and adult individuals, couples and families. Some of the more common issues are depression, suicidal ideations, self-harming, anger management, anxiety, conflict resolution, divorce, parent/child relationship issues, and marriage counseling.

I specialize in the treatment of eating disorders, anxiety, depression, and family dynamics. My experience includes working at residential, inpatient, partial hospitalizations and intensive outpatient levels of care with adolescents and adults. I believe that people should feel comfortable, confident, and have a sense of belonging in their own communities. I believe that the client is the expert on themselves and therefore approach counseling as a collaboration between myself and the client.

The ideal client that I like to meet with is someone who desires help and wisdom for their situation. They are also someone who needs encouragement, direction and prayer. No matter what type of situation they are going through I am here to help and come along side of them. I understand that life can be very difficult and sometimes we find ourselves in situations that we never believed we would be in. It is this client whom I like to meet with so that we can work toward a better path for them.
