Therapists in The Woodlands, TX

I'm ready to offer a warm and accepting environment where you feel comfortable. My passion is to connect with others and genuinely "see" them for who they are and meet them where they are in life. If you are struggling with the relationships in your life, such as your spouse, parents, children, in-laws, siblings, or friendships, we can work together toward more safety, boundaries, reconnection or better communication in these relationships.

My client population includes, individuals seeking life balance, establishing a recovery network for long-term sobriety from addiction, including alcohol and mood altering substances. I offer services to teens and young adults transitioning to college, and career development. I will address anxiety and depression through the session as it relates to these transitions. I encourage working with families/couples to address boundaries, communication skills, and family history of addiction and mental health. I like to focus on the solutions, and less on the problems with individuals and families.

Therapy is the process whereby an individual, couple or family becomes self-empowered and strengthened though developing an understanding of themselves and others fostered by love. It is how one explores their needs and goals or desires to promote emotional health and sense of well-being at any and every age. No one and nothing is one size fits all. Every person is unique and so will be our approach to helping ease the discomfort, worry and frustration. I am a strengths-based therapist.This means: look at what you are already doing "right" and build from there. You are always safe with me to say anything, literally. I will listen.

I have been working with children, adolescents, and families for several years. I have worked in all types of outpatient settings including children's hospitals. I specialize in treating anxiety and mood related disorders as well as OCD and ADHD. I also work with parents to help them learn how to navigate the journey with their individual child's emotional and developmental needs. Parents of toddlers are welcome too! I am a mother myself so I know and understand the daily struggles and the endurance raising a child takes. I want to help!

Did you go to bed last night feeling angry or hopeless from the same continued fight with your partner or child? Has the anxiety, depression, conflict, or trauma become unbearable? Do you want to improve your personal relationships but don’t know how? I am a licensed marriage and family therapist with 10 years of experience and understand those thoughts all too well. We all have the capacity for growth and healing, and I would be honored to partner with you and your family towards finding your happier and more fulfilling life.

I know it’s not a matter of IF life will get unbalanced and messy; it’s more a matter of WHEN that will happen. I get it! I know you have been doing your best to handle things on your own, but you deserve the support to succeed and thrive in life, not just having to coast the best you can. My role as a counselor is to walk alongside you and help sort through things when the mess seems too much for one person, parent, couple, or family to handle. You don’t have to go through this alone.

My passion is to meet you right where you are and to walk forward together on a path of personal discovery and change that leads to freedom and healing. I believe that each person is worth being seen and heard uniquely as well as being fought for on their road to wholeness.

Struggling with alcohol or drug addiction? End the loneliness and desperation of fighting the endless battle of addiction alone. Having recovered from my own addictions to alcohol and drugs, I am passionate about helping people find hope and a new way of living, free from the pain and isolation of addiction. Allow me to guide you on a new journey in recovery. Through strengthening your internal motivation to make positive life changes, gaining insight into your addictive patterns, increasing self-awareness, creating meaning and purpose in life, you can learn to live again.

Loss/Grief, Transitions and Coaching to recapture our Goals and reignite our joy, are my areas of Specialization. "We cannot change the Wind; we can only Adjust our Sails." Join me.

We all make mistakes, have struggles, and even regret things from our past. But you are not your mistakes, you are not your struggles, and you are here now with the power to shape your day and your future. I believe that everyone is capable of change. In working with people, I feel that it is important to honor an individual's past, listen to their personal experiences, and respect their beliefs to better understand how they make meaning of their world. I am committed to providing a safe and non-judgmental environment that fosters self-exploration and personal growth.

Life's journey brings on many bumps along the way. Are you, or members of family facing some challenges that you are unsure about how to resolve? Do you wish things were different? I enjoy working with older teenagers, young adults, families, and women who are struggling in their present circumstances. I provide an open, self- accepting environment of non-judgment when working with all my clients. I would love to work with you to find relief and improvement in your life.

It is my belief that struggles come from not being able to reach our true potential. It is my goal to honor you and your potential, and help you do the same. When we feel nurtured, safe, and supported, we begin to become who we truly can be. I find that resolving one area of difficulty often leads to other difficulties resolving.

I believe that every client has the tools and knowledge necessary to improve their lives. This knowledge becomes hidden by the stress and responsibilities we face on a daily basis. My role as a therapist is to help you uncover those tools in order for you to live a more fulfilling life. If your family is facing a difficult challenge, if you need a different perspective on a situation, or if you are at a loss of what to do with your teen's behavior, I would be honored to help you throughout the process of positive change.

Are you struggling with marital/family issues? Is divorce on the horizon? Do you feel like no one understands your singles concerns? Has anger become unmanageable? Do you need help with mood related issues? Let me help you navigate the difficulties in your life, and find hope for your future. Call for an appointment today.

Help for when Relationships Hurt! I bring Experience on the Cutting Edge. I'm a therapist with over 40 years of experience! If you're worried that would make me old-fashioned - you should know that I teach in Marriage & Family Therapy training programs, and always focus on up-to-date, "cutting edge" methods. The one word I would use to describe my approach is "collaborative." This means treatment individually tailored to you and your situation (no cookie-cutter approaches!). Because of that, I primarily offer "strengths-based" approaches that focus primarily on your strengths, not your weaknesses.

My orientation as a therapist is Cognitive-Behavioral. I assist clients with understanding how their thoughts transfer into behaviors. I work with clients who need assistance with anxiety, attention deficit, depression, grief and loss, marriage, OCD, and step-family issues. Clients must be 17 years of age and older. As a professional therapist, I have been a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) since 1995. I have been a Trauma and Loss Therapist since 2000. I was the Coordinator of Crisis Counseling and Prevention for Conroe Independent School District from 1992-2006. I have been a licensed Minister since 1990.

Hello, I'm so glad you're here! You have just taken the first step to bring about change to a more balanced and healthier YOU. I enjoy and help working with others to bring hope and healing from life's challenges and difficult circumstances. If you are navigating through a difficult time, there IS hope in resolving and moving through your situation. If you or a family member is experiencing anxiety, depression, grief, low self-esteem, social or school struggles, we, together, can work through this. When big emotions show up, you can learn healthy coping tools/strategies to get through this time. I'm here to help!

We all struggle with the ups and downs of life. My passion is working with children (ages 3 and older) and families to promote healthy and happy individuals and relationships. I hope to help my clients enhance their own individual strengths, better their relationships with others, and enjoy the most out of everyday interactions and experiences. Solution Focused and Attachment-Based therapy are the primary approaches I utilize in treating clients. As human beings, I believe we are wired to connect with others and that individual change and healing influences relational change and healing.

Marriage, family, friendships: Relationships can bring us meaning, but also pain, confusion, and sadness. You may feel you have to “hold it together” and keep your struggles under the surface. Maybe you strive to achieve and please, but never have the opportunity to honor your own needs. Are you accomplished, but still feel empty, lost, or lonely? Many individuals and couples come to me to renew and rework their relationships and to feel happier and healthier as a result. You too can successfully move past trauma, conflict, and stressful changes and emerge living a more intentional, satisfying life with better relationships.
