Therapists in Highland Village, TX

I believe counseling is a supportive environment within which all persons can seek both understanding and acceptance. Within my counseling work, I emphasize the importance of a trusting, therapeutic relationship with each and every client in order to allow for healthy growth and change. My passion lies with working with children, adolescents, and families in a safe, non-judgmental environment. My experience includes working with children, adolescents, teens, parents, and adults dealing with various mental health issues.

My goal in working with clients is to build a strong, authentic, and trusting relationship in which they are able to safely and openly explore themselves, their relationships with others, and any other concerns. I recognize that each client is unique and that there is no “one size fits all” solution. I strive to meet each person where they are and to work collaboratively to meet your individual needs and goals, whatever they may be. I hope to empower my clients to connect with their existing strengths and resources, to face future challenges with courage, and to create more meaningful, healthier lives and relationships.

You are not alone. In a society of unattainable standards it can appear that everyone has it together. From relationships to careers, parenting or happiness, we can be illusioned to others living a blissfully smooth life without fear, sadness or conflict. At some point in our lives, each of us may feel anxious, isolated, depressed or lonely and need help dealing with life's challenges. You are not alone. Problems with marriage or relationships, family situations, substance abuse, loss of a job, burnout, or parenting issues life can be overwhelming or debilitating, and at times beyond our ability to manage alone.

I enjoy helping people work through challenges and heal issues that are stopping them from feeling peace. I have a strong sense of respect for each of my clients and believe they are experts in their own lives. Each individual will have their own unique solution as each has their own unique situation. I work to provide a safe, compassionate, and non-judgmental environment for my clients and can offer tools that help them better understand and process issues they are dealing with.

I believe we can discover a life to love - and while life presents us with periods of stability and order, it also contains times of challenge and uncertainty. I trust that the periods of instability that require change can be successfully negotiated through self-exploration and self-compassion. My role as a counseling professional is to create and maintain a supportive, empathic, collaborative environment where you feel safe to explore and experiment with different solutions to your personal difficulties.

Welcome! Create change... Feel better... Choosing a counselor is a big deal. My hope is to help make the process easier. I have 20 years of clinical experience working with adults and teens, and 15+ years providing EMDR Level II therapy (a modality that can swiftly address anxiety, grief and trauma). In my practice I have seen individuals discover their strengths, heal themselves and create a life worth living. I aim to establish a therapeutic relationship that allows clients to grow and change in a safe and supportive environment. I believe it is important to honor clients' values, unique experiences, and complex journeys.

Are you feeling stuck, anxious, or depressed? Having trouble finding your purpose? Are you ready for the next step but not sure where to start? Maybe you have been through something that you know it's time to process. Whether you know what you want to work on or you need some help figuring it out, I can help you get started on your journey. I am passionate about helping people live happier, healthier, more productive lives. I believe that each client is unique and deserves individualized therapy based on what works best for them.

Do you feel stuck and lost in a loop of negative thoughts and self-doubt? You’re moving through life bogged down in the everyday, but some part of you knows it can be different. You remember feeling empowered, inspired, and excited about life, but you can’t figure out how to get there again. I can help you find yourself again and remember who you are under all those layers of self-doubt, grief, loss, and the needs of others. I love it when my clients re-discover their own light and feel empowered to create the life they deserve.

It is my belief that everyone has innate value and purpose to offer the world and that we all have the power within us to be who we want to be. Oftentimes, obstacles in life keep us from getting a clear vision of how to identify what we want and to achieve our goals. I love helping clients to process through their difficult life experiences identify how these experiences can help propel them forward. I often work with teens and adults who are struggling with Anxiety, Depression, identity, career, or finding purpose in their lives. I also have 18 years of experience as a competitive gymnast and love working with athletes.

I believe that looking holistically at clients' lives can enhance the therapeutic experience and broaden opportunities for healing. I explore creative and innovative ways to incorporate client's passions into the counseling process. My goal is always to make sure my client's leave my office more aware and hopefully more confident that their lives are evolving toward more helpful and connected ways of living. I challenge my clients to examine their habits, lifestyle, and consistency of positive self regard.

I was once asked, when will things stop going wrong and I will be in control of my life? This is a sentiment many of us share which can leave us struggling to get through the day. My response was that change is constant. In today's ever changing world, we are all challenged to adapt. Working together, we will seek self understanding, explore new ways to cope, pursue increased internal control and self-esteem, and strive to become the better versions of ourselves. As we persevere and develop strengths we become stronger more capable. Things that go wrong become small bumps in the road versus the road blocks they once were.
