Self Esteem Therapists in Hillsboro, TX

Making the decision to come to counseling can be a difficult one. I understand people face different challenges that stop them from moving forward in their lives. I am passionate about helping people with various issues including depression, anxiety, unresolved grief/loss, low self-esteem, substance use disorders, and complex trauma among many others. I believe in a patient approach and emphasize building a trusting relationship to help foster deeper reflection and personal accountability. I look forward to the honor of walking alongside you in your journey to wellness.

I am licensed in Texas with seven years of professional work experience. I have a background in education as well. I have a Bachelor of Science degree in Psychology and a Master of Arts degree in Professional Counseling. I have experience in helping clients with stress and anxiety, relationship issues, motivation, self-esteem, and confidence, career difficulties, & grief. I believe that you are the expert on your story and have many strengths that will assist you in overcoming negative thoughts and challenging situations.

Are you experiencing anxiety or stress or struggling through a life transition? Wishing to feel more like yourself again or maybe you're hoping to recover from past wounds? These are some of the most common issues I help clients overcome. Life can be hard, and no one tells you All The Things that come with it. Everyone has a story: yours is what makes you who you are, but it does not define you. I work with each of my clients to examine these stories and create an individual plan to help them live their best life.

You may have a goal of living a meaningful life in all its richness and seeking help with interpersonal or mental health symptom related concerns? Depression, anxiety, history of trauma? Are you, your family or relations journeying through life transitions or in need of support related to medical-health concerns? There are times in life when it feels like you are barely keeping your head above water. Not a fun feeling! More importantly, I work with compassion, empathy, and am non-judgmental, while creating a safe space for you to explore and understand.

I am a licensed professional counselor, and I offer confidential counseling services for adults, families, and couples of all diversities, orientations, and backgrounds. I provide a comfortable, genuinely safe, non-judgmental environment where we work as a team to help you understand the context of your struggles and establish an appropriate therapy for your circumstances.

Do you often struggle with gaining control over certain situations and wish that you had effective coping skills to manage? I specialize in helping individuals manage and regulate their emotions during life transitioning challenges. I have closely worked with individuals who are experiencing depression, anxiety, stress, self-esteem issues, relationship issues, and abuse. I believe that coming to counseling takes courage and taking that first step can take you a long way. I like to work closely with my clients by listening to their life experiences and identify goals to ensure that their emotional goals are being worked on and met. 

My work involves de-stigmatizing mental health amongst African Americans and POC struggling with addiction, various types of trauma, anxiety, or low self esteem. I also work with individuals looking to explore their sexuality and couples who are looking to add excitement back into their relationship or work through infidelity or dissatisfaction.

Are you overwhelmed by your emotions or feeling emotionally numb? Do you find it challenging to be present in your life? Maybe you find yourself or your child reacting in ways that don't seem to reflect who you truly are. Emotions are a natural and valuable human experience and as a licensed counselor I believe that being in touch with, understanding, and processing the emotions you experience can greatly enrich your life. Anxiety, depression, and trauma experiences can each impact how you interpret your interactions, relationships, and emotions. If you feel ready to learn how to regulate your emotions, you are in the right place.

Life can seem overwhelming at times which can make it difficult to believe that happiness is possible or that goals are unattainable. It can be difficult to understand why there seems to be a constant feeling of sadness and hopelessness and not knowing where it is coming from or what is triggering the feelings. It is okay not to be okay but it is not okay to remain stuck there. We are all unique and valuable and deserve respect and kindness. I also believe that it is important for our feelings to be heard and validated.

Congratulations on taking the first step to a journey of healing that you won’t regret. You are at the right place at the right time so, EXHALE! Life is full of ups and downs and sometimes we just need a safe space to express and explore our emotions. There is nothing wrong with getting some help along the way on the rollercoaster ride of life. I work with individuals ready to do the work required to become the best version of themselves. This includes addressing generational trauma, life transitions, low self-esteem, perfectionism, anxiety and poor boundaries.

Coming to therapy requires courage, and I offer an empathic and supportive space where patients can feel understood, valued, and accepted as they are. I approach therapy through an important lens: that lasting change and healing comes from understanding the present-day impact of one’s past experiences and relationships, most importantly with oneself. Whether you are hoping to better manage stress and anxiety, navigate a challenging time in your life, strengthen your relationships, let go of feelings of insecurity, or improve your overall wellbeing, I can help.

My passion is serving children, teens, their families, and young women through fostering healthy emotional development, creativity, self-esteem, and healing. I offer counseling services for children (ages 3+), adolescents, individual adults. My approach focuses on establishing an atmosphere of warmth, safety, and acceptance to provide my clients the space to work collaboratively with me towards their goals, positive growth/development, and overall wellness. Within this relationship, I assist my clients in challenging and replacing thoughts, feelings, and behaviors that are keeping them from a living a fuller and more satisfying life.
