"Striving Toward Success" I believe that each person can be successful in any area of their life. I am a Master's level LPC licensed by the state of Texas.

I focus more on individual needs because I recognize that each person is unique. Give me a call and I will tell you more about the meaning of the word "Success".

I deliver cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) and other evidence-based treatments to adult, seniors , and teens with a wide range of emotional, behavioral, and adjustment problems, such as anxiety, stress, depression, and relationship problems.

I believe psychotherapy can help individuals most effectively use their resources to increase self-understanding, to improve decision-making, to solve problems, and to create paths to the lives they want. I use mindfulness training to help clients live in the moment, with a compassionate and nonjudgmental approach.

If someone in the street stopped you and asked, "where are you in life?" would you be able to answer them honestly? It's not as easy as it sounds. We aren't taught how to be an adult in school, and identity for every person is different, so there are bound to be hiccups or maybe even questions and concerns roaming your mind. Rest assured, that's what I'm here for. It's perfectly ok to be nervous. Some call me a mental health professional, but I like to call myself a healer because talking is healing. Please know I will continue to validate your experiences as they are true to you and encourage you to be true to yourself.

I specialize in addictions, mood disorders and relationship psychotherapy. I believe in helping the client focus on action as quickly as possible to aid them in relieving their pain.

My personal and professional experiences have helped me gain valuable insights into many social and cultural experiences that make us all diverse and unique. Some of the populations I’ve worked with include adults with mental health needs, individuals with disabilities, families in crisis, and children in foster care. My goal is to advocate for my client’s best interest and needs. I aim to be caring, compassionate, and committed. My approach in individual therapy is to provide an empathetic ear and to assist my clients through the therapeutic process. I believe the collaborative process between therapist and client can be healing.

Accepting new clients in 2023. Do you struggle with anxiety, perfectionism, or self-sabotage? Are you feeling stuck and frustrated because you keep falling back into the same patterns again and again, no matter how hard you try to change? You may have been on your personal growth journey for a while and know what you need to do, but have trouble making it all stick. I combine the depth of therapy with the forward-movement of life coaching to help you understand and release the barriers that are holding you back, so that you can create real and lasting change in your life.

"Accept, choose, and take action." Those are key components of the Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) style I embrace. ACT therapy encourages individuals to both seek a deeper understanding of occasional unpleasant realities in the world and choose to develop new behaviors which allow them to interact more successfully within that world. Because anxiety, depression and stress can interfere with living an enriched, meaningful life and realizing your valued goals, ACT serves as a way to "reboot" your thinking.

My greatest strength is empathy, the ability to put myself in the shoes of my client to understand what they are feeling. Every brain is as unique as DNA, which means problems can present differently in people and can be triggered by different issues. I work with all ages, from children with ADHD to senior citizens with cognitive decline. Sometimes the client needs to build a toolbox, and other times, we can teach the brain new ways of processing information. It all depends on what issues you are dealing with in order to determine what solutions are available. I will guide you through what options are available for you to decide.

Do you feel distracted or overwhelmed by constant worries? Are you having a hard time getting through the day? Perhaps life has thrown you a curveball and you're trying to figure out how to cope with a difficult and unexpected situation. My role as a therapist is to support you through these challenges so that you can thrive despite the issues at hand. By providing you a safe space to share your struggles, to examine who you are - your hopes, fears, old habits and limiting beliefs that hold you back, we can then address the problems at its core.

Having raised four children, two of whom we adopted, I am able to understand the unique needs and stains of both motherhood and children trying to find their place, the stresses of being a mother and how our thoughts and feelings effect our relationships. It wasn’t easy to find a therapist that used mercy and truth. But through those challenges, I learned patience and listening skills that allowed me to assist my clients in achieving their goals.

It takes strength and courage to seek help! I work with individuals, couples, and families in areas such as anxiety and depression, relationship difficulties, couples tune-ups, and infertility.

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor. My clients are adults of all ages working through a wide range of issues, such as depression, anxiety, addiction, grief, spiritual disconnection, relationship difficulties, and more. I have a particular interest and additional experience with the LGBTQ population, young adults working to establish their identities, those working through painful grief journeys, and those who are exploring their faith or spirituality. My goal is always to create a space free from judgment where you can explore who you are, who you want to be, and who you feel called to be.
