About me

Throughout life it is expected for one to experience some form of discomfort, stress or trial. However, it is how we respond to those circumstances when they occur that ultimately determine the lasting effect it will have in us and our lives. It is my privilege to walk with you as you go through your journey while instilling hope and optimism in a safe, nonjudgmental, and supportive environment while facilitating healing, positive change and personal growth.

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor in Texas with over 8 years of experience working as a therapist. I am Certified in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and utilize Faith Based Therapy (when requested) but my treatment approach is eclectic in nature. I am also a Tobacco Treatment Specialist and utilize Motivational Interviewing while working with clients who are working towards freedom and independence from nicotine and tobacco products. As a therapist, I understand that each individuals needs may require various techniques from different treatment modalities and the importance of ensuring that every effort to accommodate each client is made. I work with clients with a wide range of concerns including depression, anxiety, relationship issues, parenting problems, self-esteem, intimacy, smoking cessation and women's issues while including spirituality, if desired. I also help many people who have experienced physical trauma, sexual abuse and/or emotional abuse.

As a therapist, I would describe myself as empathetic, non-judgmental, direct, honest, and practical. I offer my clients my genuine concern and empathy, combined with my direct thoughts, insights, and recommendations. I can offer you a safe place to sort through what is on your mind and heart. Many people carry a heavy load emotionally and fear letting their guard down with others. One of the benefits of therapy is that I am not in your every day life. I am not here to judge you. I can help you cut through the noise and get to the root of what is truly troubling you and I can walk you through the steps necessary to bring about the change you desire to see in your life.

It is my goal to help you regain the focus necessary to be successful in your lives. I look forward to doing life with you!

LaDonna is very encouraging and insightful. She has given great advice through in good timing that helped me get through some very tough times and transitions in my life.
