Do you want to let go of your past trauma? Do you feel it impacting your life, even if it happened years ago? I work with children, adolescents, and adults to help them work through and resolve past experiences and present struggles that impact current functioning. The focus is NOT "What is wrong with you?" but rather "What happened to you?" You can work through the past, build resilience, and focus on creating the future you want.

Congratulations! By engaging in research to find a counselor in your area you have taken the first step on a courageous journey. As your counselor I will share the tools I've gathered to assist you with your journey in improving your mental health. Counseling is not a means to an end, rather the beginning of a process to ongoing well being. Change may on occasion be easy and quick. More often times change can be slow and frustrating as there are no "magic pills" or instant cures. However you can learn helpful new ways to look at your problems.

Deep emotional pain, depression, anxiety, and low self-esteem can be symptoms of trauma or abuse. It can feel overwhelming until you just "don't want to do this anymore". Have you've read or heard about others who are experiencing relationship problems, have PTSD symptoms, are deeply sad or experiencing panic attacks, and you know exactly how it feels? "Normal" life has its ups and downs, but if you resonate with any of the above, you have probably experienced some abnormally stressful or traumatic life events. Any of them can become barriers to making and keeping meaningful connections with others or leading productive lives.

Are you wondering how you've become someone you're not very excited to be? Do you wonder where your motivation has gone? Maybe you're making choices you wish you didn't.

Perhaps you're a spouse/partner or parent and those relationships are not bringing you the contentment you thought they would. This all can feel very heavy and almost impossible to repair; but it's not impossible and I can show you how to move forward.

I am a holistic Licensed Professional Counselor practicing in the state of Texas. As holistic counselor I take into consideration the physical, spiritual, psychological, ethnic and socioeconomic components that make you unique. Even in my 20+ years career as ICU nurse I have subscribed to the holistic approach to patient care. Though it's well known that mind and body interact, unfortunately many practitioners seem to overlook this important fact.

Female Therapists
Does it matter what gender my therapist is?
In general, there is no relationship between a therapist’s gender and their efficacy. Some clients, however, prefer to see therapists of a particular gender, whether due to their own past experiences with men and women, or because they feel more comfortable with a therapist of their own gender due to shared life experiences or perspectives. Considering what one wants to address in therapy can help someone determine whether their therapist’s gender may matter or improve their therapeutic experience. The most important consideration is that a client is able to build a trusting relationship with their therapist.
Should I see a female therapist?
Many people—not just women—prefer to see a female therapist. For women, this could be because they believe that they will be able to better connect with a woman, and that a female therapist will be able to relate to their specific challenges and personal issues. It may be particularly beneficial for women to see a female therapist, for example, for gender-specific issues, such as sexism in the workplace, relationship issues, and gender roles. The most important factor in therapy is the client-therapist connection, and a therapist's gender as well as many other factors may play an important role in this.
Do therapists get specific training to help with women’s concerns?
Therapists are trained to provide care to clients of any gender. However, some therapists may pursue additional training in feminist therapy, gender-specific issues, or women’s mental health. Female clients may wish to ask prospective therapists whether they have received specific training in the client’s primary area(s) of concern, or whether they have worked extensively with women on issues similar to their own.
How can I inquire about a therapist’s experience in treating women?
It’s OK—even encouraged!—to ask a therapist directly whether and how often they have treated women in the past, or whether they have treated women dealing with the client’s most prominent concern(s). Competent therapists will be happy to share their educational background, preferred treatment modalities, and prior client experience to help an individual find the therapist best suited to their needs.
