Therapists in Taylor, TX

Welcome to my practice! For over ten years I have worked as a licensed counselor, with experience in addictions, family violence, at-risk adolescents, and working with the HIV/AIDS population. I have specific training in Cognitive-Behavioral, Rational Emotive Behavioral, and Solution-Focused Brief therapies. These therapies have been shown through research to be effective in treating depression, anxiety, addictions, and other mental health diagnoses. I also like to incorporate relaxation, mindfulness, Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT) techniques, and art therapy techniques in my work with clients.

Are you feeling under pressure, overwhelmed, and as though you are not enough? By utilizing the humanistic, existential, and solution-focused approaches, I can help you feel less pressured and overwhelmed by viewing you as a whole person, encouraging you to remain true to yourself (humanistic), helping you increase your self-awareness, accept responsibility, and know that you are enough so you can live a more authentic life (existential) while focusing on finding solutions for issues in the here and now (solution-focused). Whether you are an adult seeking assistance for yourself or family, or a child/adolescent, I am here to help.

Emotional, psychological, and interpersonal/social growth is a continual process of self transformation and change. At points when one feels stuck or confused in that process, or when life just isn't working, it often helps to connect with a therapist. I provide a safe space where you can be, or recover/rediscover, your authentic self; deepen the emotional connection with yourself and others; clarify thoughts, beliefs, and values; consider new ways of being in the world and w/others; develop healthier adaptive strategies for relating to yourself and others; and work through past and/or present griefs and traumas.

Current openings for daytimes hours: 11, 1, or 2pm during the week. "Although the world is full of suffering, it is also full of the overcoming of it." This quote by Helen Keller represents my belief that hope and healing is available to all. I enjoy working with adults who are seeking deep healing.

My goal is to help you, or your loved one, overcome any psychological and/or emotional state you may be struggling with, by providing a safe, caring, and professional environment to promote positive change towards well-being.

Are you experiencing anxiety, depression, or grief? Do you feel hopeless? Are the walls closing in? I empathize with your feelings and I don't want you to suffer any longer! I can help you with sensitivity, childhood traumas, and personal growth. I offer non-judgmental compassion and empathy, I want to guide you in helping your whole self through holistic practices. The unconscious is deep rooted and can control our thoughts and emotions, which in turn dictate our behaviors. All emotions are to be respected, they tell us something about ourselves. The goal is to not let negative emotions control our behaviors. Let's breathe!

Welcome I hope to be part of your support journey as you seek hope, health and recovery to various life challenges . I have over 25 years experience providing Substance Abuse and Mental Health Treatment in a great deal of diverse settings. I am interested in learning more about (you ) and (your ) goals and objectives for therapy. I believe a counseling relationship works best when you are comfortable with a therapist and free to be who you are. I help you reach this goal by bringing to the session , experience , honesty of myself , kindness and genuine regard. I am part of the Veteran Choice Programs to receive VA referrals.

I take an integrative eclectic therapy approach that fits you. I believe it is a team approach between the client and therapist to work actively towards treatment goals. I have 14 years of experience in multiple therapeutic settings working with a culturally diverse population of children, adolescents, and adults. I have experience designing and implementing appropriate individualized treatment plans with clearly defined culturally sensitive goals that encourage healthy supportive environments, communication between children and their support system and promotes mental wellness for the whole child, fostering resiliency.

I believe in a therapeutic process that revolves around life's changes and the journeys it takes us on. Choosing to change your focus is a powerful way of transforming any situation. Focusing on the positive doesn't mean that we are denying reality or avoiding what isn't working. It simply allows us to work from a grounded place in order to make the most informed decision from a less emotional place of clarity. Within our sessions, the goal is to cultivate a trusting and collaborative therapeutic relationship where an individual can bring their full self into session without any fear.
