You are so tired of the way things are and it seems like they are just getting worse. Even though your life looks great from the outside and you feel you should "just be happy," on the inside, you feel angry, overwhelmed and unfulfilled. Being strong and independent has taken its toll on you. But you're longing for more. It's not enough to keep going through the day on autopilot, living someone else's idea of a successful life. Something has to change soon.

Constantly making bad decisions in or around your relationships can take a toll on you. Compound that with the guilt of an affair or infidelity and things can get very dicey. Black men haven’t always had appropriate relationship behaviors modeled for them. We have to learn on the fly and will undoubtedly make mistakes in the process. Struggling with self defeating behaviors is extremely stressful and dangerous. When you make this kind of mistake where can you turn for guidance and support?

Whether working with teens overcoming symptoms of depression or adults unpacking childhood trauma, I find joy helping people of all ages and stages in life. My strongest passion comes from the growth I see in the playroom with children, especially children diagnosed with Autism, ADHD, or struggling with behavioral issues. Additionally, I have experience providing Accelerated Resolution Therapy (ART) to veterans and other individuals struggling with post traumatic stress.

I am an anxiety disorders and treatment specialist in The Woodlands, Texas. I utilize Exposure Response and Prevention (ERP) to help adolescents and adults who struggle with Anxiety disorders, Obsessive Compulsive Disorder, and other phobias. ERP is the gold standard treatment in mental health. Running away from your fears can often lead to patterns of behaviors that may provide immediate relief but does not break the cycle of anxiety, instead, it only increases it. You may find yourself engaging in ritualistic behaviors such as avoidance, reassurance seeking, overt behaviors, and even mental compulsions.

I have a passion for working with couples, families, individuals and teens through a systemic lens. By counseling from a systemic perspective, I can more easily identify what systems (work, school, home life, marriage, etc.) are negatively affecting you while also uncovering unhealthy, ingrained family patterns and beliefs that may keep you emotionally reactive, anxious, and attached. A lot of families and couples get nervous to come in because they are afraid of being judged or exposed, but it is actually more helpful so that I can properly observe, intervene, challenge and mediate in order to help you grow closer to one another.

Is online therapy a good option?
Therapy conducted online can be just as effective as in-person therapy, as long as there is a strong alliance between the client and the therapist. To find a therapist who provides telehealth services to clients in your area, click “Online Therapy” on the directory homepage and search by your city or town or your zip code.
What’s the difference between a psychologist, a therapist, and a counselor?
Therapists, psychologists, and counselors are all licensed mental health professionals. In the US, psychologists have earned a doctoral degree. The terms “therapist” and “counselor” are used somewhat interchangeably, but generally therapists offer longer-term, mental health care, while counselors offer shorter-term care that may focus on one domain, such as marriage, career, or academic challenges.
What type of therapist is right for me?
Clients should consider factors such as insurance coverage and their primary reason(s) for seeking therapy to determine the type of professional best suited to their needs. Someone struggling with mental health challenges such as depression or anxiety, for example, may wish to seek out a clinical psychologist or therapist, while someone navigating career obstacles or marital upheaval may benefit from seeing a counselor who can offer short-term, targeted support.
Is everyone in the Psychology Today Therapy Directory a licensed therapist?
The Psychology Today directory lists providers who offer legitimate mental health services to the public, including psychologists, psychiatrists, social workers, and counselors. Many have been licensed by the country or state where they practice; providers whose license or primary credential has been verified by Psychology Today are signified by a “Verified” symbol. Some clinicians or organizations provide services for which their state or country does not offer licenses, such as pastoral counseling. They may be selectively included without the “Verified” seal.
What type of therapy is right for me?
The type of therapy best suited to a particular individual depends on several factors, including their primary reason for seeking therapy, their preferred timeline (some therapy types last for a set number of sessions, while others are open-ended), and their personality and preferences—some may prefer a more structured approach. For many individuals, multiple types of therapy could provide a good fit.
Is online therapy cheaper than in-person therapy?
Many therapists charge the same amount for online therapy as they do for in-person therapy—though clients may still find this cost-effective if it cuts down on their transportation costs. Health insurance plans often offer equivalent coverage for online and in-person therapy; indeed, in many places, they are legally required to do so. Text-based or on-demand therapy apps may be cheaper than traditional one-on-one psychotherapy; however, the practice may be less effective and is not likely to be covered by insurance.
