My sessions are provided in English, Spanish, or Portuguese. Most of my clients are individuals who suffer from depression, anxiety, panic, obsessions and compulsions, co-dependency, and/or relationship issues. I work with clients who value expertise and are willing to invest in their wellbeing and relationships. How important is it for you to feel better? How willing are you to make getting better a priority in your life? Therapy requires commitment and these questions may help you to make a decision whether therapy is an approach worth trying.

If you find yourself caught in a difficult situation that you feel you have struggled to navigate, choose to begin a conversation with me and I can offer you a safe space to continue on a journey of exploration. I will work collaboratively with you in an attempt to uncover and/or create possibilities that you may not be aware of in your current life situation. With my diverse experience, your unique knowledge of yourself and desire to make a change, we will create a strong alliance to battle the issues that will come to pass in your life.

I work with children, adolescents and adults on a variety of issues. Most of my work is based on the principles of Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT). My therapy plans are goal-oriented, with specific, measurable steps so that you can track progress. I will help you discover the "problem behind the problem" and then we'll work together to formulate solutions. I enjoy collaborating with my patients on many types of issues, but have quite a bit of extra training in working with children with ADHD and their parents, as well as with persons with Asperger's-type autism.

If you are ready to make a change in your life and you're looking into therapy, I am here to help. Lets work together to create a therapeutic alliance that allows you to share openly without judgement. Feel free to reach out with any questions you might have about what to expect out of therapy or how the therapeutic process works.

As your therapist, I will help you to navigate through life's difficult times. Collaboratively, we will strategize to create a personal plan to overcome obstacles, develop positive coping skills, foster healthy relationships and more. To facilitate change within the lives of my clients, I utilize cognitive-behavioral, narrative, family systems, solution-focus therapies as well as motivational interviewing techniques.

I specialize in working with couples and individuals with relationship problems. I also conduct forensic evaluations for cases involving intimate partner violence. As a relationship researcher for the past 25 years, I am applying research to help couples and individuals with communication, sexual, or other problems by offering couples' assessments, therapy, & forensic evaluations. Combining the work of my Ph.D. mentors, Dr. John Gottman and Dr. Neil Jacobson, my scientifically-based couples therapy combines Gottman Couples Therapy and Integrative Behavioral Couples Therapy. My approach is direct, short-term and effective.

I specialize in working with those with ADHD in individual, couples, and family therapy. I also frequently work with those anxiety-based disorders, obsessive-compulsive disorder, and relationship challenges. My clients often come to me feeling worried, scattered, disconnected, or overwhelmed-often after trying to navigate these challenges on their own for years. It takes bravery and strength to start the therapeutic process and seek change. We work together to find those "stuck" points and figure out a new path.

This is a time of so much uncertainty and stress with a lot of anxiety and questions. I specialize in seeing young people ages 6 to 30 with anxiety, attention difficulties, and struggles to find their place in the social or academic world. I partner with many young adults as they navigate high academic or career pressure, dating (especially online,) life transitions, career changes, sexuality and gender exploration, faith/spirituality exploration, anxiety, depression, "perfectionism" and "people-pleasing." I especially have a heart for and interest in working with intellectually and/or artistically gifted folks.

The decision to attend counseling can be a significant moment in one’s life. The choice to seek this kind of support can come about for many reasons. People seek therapy to deal with issues, conflicts, and problems associated with a range of topics: interpersonal relationships, professional/career issues, family struggles, unwanted symptoms/behaviors/feelings, a desire to make change, a need to process/grieve painful events from the past or present, self-exploration and many other purposes. Given the importance of such issues, it is critical to find a therapist with whom one feels comfortable.

Oftentimes, "counseling" has a negative connotation - counseling is for people who have something "wrong" with them, or it's for people too weak to handle their problems on their own. I don't buy that. We live in a hurried and difficult world. Pain and confusion seem to shadow us wherever we go. Sometimes our relationships slip. Sometimes we find ourselves puzzled about meaning and purpose. Sometimes we just need someone to help us make healthy choices. In my office here in Houston, you'll find therapy is confidential, safe, and solution-oriented.

My focus is to help individuals heal, energize, and become aware of their inner strengths. Also to guide individuals and families to change patterns and routines, discover positive and productive communication techniques, and strengthen relationships. Therefore, increasing success at home, school, work, and in their community. I achieve this by providing a neutral safe space, listening to your concerns, and customizing a treatment plan. My ultimate goal in counseling is to give my clients hope and the tools to work towards healing what has been negative

No matter what challenges or circumstances you face there is hope. You can change your relationships and life. Relationships are the greatest gifts in our life, and can be the source of our deepest pain. I will help you get the clarity needed to set appropriate boundaries and establish healthy, loving interactions with friends, spouses, and children. Your past does not need to dictate your future. Now is the best time to discover the awesome possibilities for your life. Don't settle. If you're tired of the same old things then you can really benefit from my services now.

I am here to help you embrace the best version of yourself. The world is full of stressors that ultimately can leave you feeling anxious, not good enough, or as if there’s not enough space for you. I build deep connections with my clients to feel safe enough to explore these difficult experiences. I help introspective people learn even more about themselves, resulting in greater self-acceptance and more overall life satisfaction.

There are times when we know that we need to make a change in our life. You might be noticing a quiet unrest, a consistent dissatisfaction, or the call to change may come through a life transition---a death, a loss, job or relationship stress, illness suddenly needing to care for elders or children moving home. The circumstances can vary, but the knowledge that change is needed is clear. My goal is to help you discover your true potential while we sort out what needs to be different, and lead you into a life that is worth celebrating.

Mental health is defined as the ability to love, and the ability to work; to be able to have stable and emotionally fulfilling relationships, to take care of your daily needs, and to be able to use your time creatively and productively. I offer person-centered counseling that focuses on helping clients understand their thoughts and feelings in order to change their behavior. I also specialize in Executive Function Coaching. Young people are often bright and capable, but overwhelmed by frustration, anxiety, or inattention. EFC teaches techniques to stay focused, plan ahead, get organized, make decisions, and follow through.
