Therapists in Southlake, TX

My only concern is you. My non-judging and calm presence are referred to as unconditional positive regard, where I provide a safe environment to unpack issues in a manner that brings about true change. I work with a wide range of individuals dealing with everything from depression and substance issues to domestic violence, PTSD, body dysmorphia, adjustment disorders, addiction, ADHD, bi-polar, grief, anxiety, and depression. I focus on CBT, existential, and person-centered modalities to enable progress towards a healthier mental state.

Feeling lost, or maybe you’re struggling with a big life change? No one is too far gone or “broken.” My goal is to help you to finish your past, be present for today, and make progress forward into your tomorrows. I enjoy the process of walking alongside my clients’ unique experiences when they feel that they may be at their lowest point. I strive to provide a positive and encouraging space for my clients to become aware of the issues in their paths, while also helping them to uncover the hidden tools that they have access to. One process I use with clients is Name it-Claim it-Tame it-Change it.

I work with adolescents and adults who look to resolve struggles with anxiety, depression, obsessive-compulsions, complex trauma, childhood trauma, dissociation, and addiction. As part of the LGBTQ+ community, I work to make sessions safe, affirming, and welcoming. I meet people where they are, as the experts of their lives, and how they want to express themselves.

“Our scars can destroy us, even after the physical wounds healed. But if we can survive them, they can even transform us. They can give us the power to endure and the strength to fight” - Batman, 2021. After you've experienced trauma you live in a different universe, you see the world differently. Only what you feel is real. Traumatized minds are directed by emotions and misinterpret logic. I work best with those who are highly imaginative, creative, and ready to confront their past.

Counseling is recommended for those that may be currently experiencing some type of unwanted or unmanageable emotional or "thinking" difficulty that requires the assistance of a trained mental health professional. Seeking counseling should never carry a negative stigma or feelings of shame. Counseling is a therapeutic process for individuals that may have diagnosed or undiagnosed mental health issues such as depression, anxiety, bi-polar disorder, obsessive compulsive disorder, or difficulty in building and maintaining heathy relationships. Coaching is recommended for those that are looking for less intensive guidance in assisting them to enhance their own personal performance.

My approach is to meet you where you are with empathy and caring. To support you in life regardless of what you have been through. Regardless of if you hate yourself or love yourself or how stuck you feel. I hope to support you to reach your goals, and if I can't, to help you find someone who can. This space is for you. What do you want to do? Who do you want to become? Whether all hope is lost or you just can't figure something out. Whether you have been diagnosed with a disorder, you just don't feel happy where you are, or you want to learn how to be healthier. My approach helps you become more of who you are and be whole again.

Develop your personal strengths and discover the right direction in life now. If you've been hospitalized or in PHP treatment you know the importance of continuing quality care and I want to help you. Managing stress, and repairing patterns in life can transform your outlook and feelings. Keep up your support and increase momentum with solutions we'll find. The change you need can happen. Let's resolve the hurt and restore the self you know is inside while making a plan for better living again. I've worked extensively with personality disorders, depression, bipolar disorder, relationships and debilitating anxiety.

A relationship seldom gets better on its own, but we often “hope” that it will. Don’t wait until you loose hope to seek relationship counseling, or counseling for any other issues you may be facing. The longer you wait, the more difficult each day can become. Self-help books often generalize, and medication often fails to deal with the cause of the imbalance. With counseling, I provide a personalized examination of your issues so that you may learn how to overcome them and create a life of relationships and experiences that you will greet with great enthusiasm.
