Aetna Therapists in Lubbock County, TX

Heartsong: The expression of a person's inner essence, underlying identity, and reason for existence. Being a kid in today’s world can be overwhelming, stressful, and confusing at times. Sometimes life circumstances or traumatic situations happen that cause these big feelings for kids. I would like to offer a safe space for kids to explore these things. My hope through the counseling process is that kids will feel safe enough to grow by learning new techniques and strategies, heal from hurtful or traumatic experiences, and of course have some fun while we are at it by using play, laughter, and games.

Working with people for nearly 10 years has been a privilege, and I’m grateful for what I’ve learned in that time. I am guided by three core beliefs. 1. We each have a unique life story. How we interpret that life story impacts how we live our lives. 2. How we see our present is impacted by the things that have happened to us in the past. 3. Our thoughts, behaviors, and values shape how we develop relationships and relate to the world around us. I use a holistic approach to each person’s mental health journey. You, as a person are at the center of therapy.
