The hardest part is making that first call. I have over 20 years of experience as a counselor. I love what I do. Call any time for an appointment. 432-248-6449. Or after hours. 325-998-9630. Therapy is cheaper than... Many times I hear people say they cant afford therapy. But if you figure the costs it saves it is money well spent. Divorce? Can cost your thousands and half of everything you own. Grief? Can take years off you your time to enjoy your life. Teen Stress? Can lead to hospitalization or even jail time. Thanks

Whether you are a teen struggling with adjusting to a new school or changing peer relationships, a college student facing a ticking clock demanding you choose a major, a young professional dealing with navigating the change from youth to adulting, or even an individual dealing with divorce or relationship concerns, I can help. All of these "normal" life changes can be accompanied by feelings of worry, stress, and anxiety that hinder our ability to progress as we need. Therapy is a wonderful means of working through the "noise" caused by anxiety, worry, and stress and dealing with the root of the issues you are facing.

I work with all, specializing in the smallest of humans through those fun adolescent years.
Healing comes from an intentional choice and giving yourself permission to take that choice. Seeking help is the first, and bravest, choice we can make. I would love to be part of this new healing journey you will embark on. When a client steps into my office I want them to have access to the journey that is within them. A place for a child to explore a world using toys and play for words, for teens to come, kick their feet up, and become the author of their own story, and for adults to create a healing narrative that is one of laughter, expression, and adventure.

What does therapy for teenagers look like?

When a therapist works with a teenager, the pair will talk about what the teen is struggling with and explore solutions, which may involve interpersonal skills, coping strategies, medication, or lifestyle changes related to sleep, diet, and exercise. Different therapists employ different modalities, but most involve a combination of conversation and skill building.

How long does therapy for teenagers generally take to work?

There’s variability in teenagers’ experiences and challenges; some may begin to improve from therapy within a few weeks while others may take several months or longer. Teens can discuss their progress with their therapist periodically to assess how they’re improving and any changes to the treatment plan that could potentially accelerate that progress.

How do you encourage a teenager to go to therapy?

It’s helpful to express your concern and love while framing therapy as an opportunity to explore a tool that could help improve their life; just like they practice baseball or dance, now they can practice their emotional skills. Give your teen control over the process where you can—maybe by weighing in on choice of therapist and signaling that therapy involves confidentiality, so a parent need not know all that is discussed in sessions.

How do you prepare teens for therapy?

You can prepare your teenager for therapy by describing what the process will look like and setting expectations for timeline, if requested. You can explain that the first session may begin with an assessment phase, that they can describe their experiences but that the therapist will ask questions too, and that it may take time to feel comfortable opening up. Ask how they’re feeling about the process and answer any questions calmly and supportively.
