Therapists in Rochelle, TX

People have always been my passion. They fascinate me...what makes them tick, what makes them happy, how they fit together. People are defined by their culture, their beliefs, their relationships, connections, communications, structure, and family. All people are connected. Everyone affects everyone they know. When one person has problems, everyone in the family is affected. Sometimes the relationships themselves need work; but everyone needs to tell their story, to feel heard and validated. Everyone deserves to declare their voice, their identity. And sometimes, we all need a little help with telling others our needs and feelings.

I believe in the wholeness that lives in us all and that counseling is not about “fixing” a person but remembering who we were first. I am a depth oriented psychotherapist with a warm yet direct approach. I am influenced by existential and Jungian psychology and in working with me you will feel these theoretical approach echo in our conversations together. I also include metaphor and narrative therapy.

It is time to heal the split. Red vs Blue. Autonomy vs Community. Masculine vs Feminine. Mind vs Body. Earth vs. Human. Rationality vs Intuition. Science vs Spirit. All of these divisions have created monstrous cracks in our collective and inner landscapes, which have been making us sick psychologically, physically, and spiritually. However, for those who are willing to slow down and step into these cracks, therein lies the space and possibility for something new and more beautiful to emerge. We have become fractured and fragmented by a misunderstood myth of separation.

Have you experienced trauma in your life? Are you continuing to live with the symptoms of PTSD, anxiety, or grief? Or are you a man who is wishing to better understand yourself or your relationships? I believe it is important to understand the goals of each individual and customize therapy to those desired outcomes. Therapy is a collaborative process in which both client and therapist are active participants, working together to reach the goals of the client. I believe it is crucial in this work to create treatment plans that identify where clients are now, where they want to be, and how we plan to get there.

I specialize in assisting my clients in the final resolution of trauma, developmental attachment disruptions; and significant disturbing events and abuse. I've designed an integrative method based on the Comprehensive Resource Model (CRM) to neuro-physiologically strengthen the body for trauma processing; Brainspotting and EMDR training to systematically and intuitively identify and process to resolution the major issues and deeply seated sources of negative beliefs and negative self image. CRM and Brainspotting, brain based therapies, evolved out of EMDR and are highly effective for a broad range of psychological trauma resolution, performance blocks, ADHD, complex PTSD, substance abuse, etc.

Finding a counselor you trust can be challenging. My goal as a therapist is to help clients thrive: to gain clearer self-insight and discover how to gain their fullest potential, wellness, and satisfaction in their lives. I am dedicated to providing evidence-based, empathetic, and individualized counseling that empowers clients with the tools and skills they need to become their best, most balanced selves. In these uncertain and stressful times, self-care and mental wellness are more important than ever.

We all face challenges in life and seeking professional help to address those difficult challenges is a commitment to your health and wellness. Our work together will build on your strengths while we address your concerns together. I believe mental and physical health is a balance of mind, body and spirit and I incorporate that belief into my practice with my clients. Regardless of your presenting concerns, I will strive to provide a safe, respectful, nurturing environment to help you examine and challenge your concerns.
