I am a Licensed Professional Counselor, who is licensed in Texas with over 10 years of experience working as a psychotherapist, in inpatient, outpatient, private practice, school settings, correctional settings and clinicial agencies. I have worked with clients with a wide range of concerns including depression, anxiety, trauma, relationship issues (divorce, co-habitational, etc...), parenting problems, career challenges, OCD and eating disorders.
My counseling style is direct and therapeutic. I believe in treating everyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion, and I do not believe in stigmatizing labels. My direct approach is a culmination of cognitive-behavioral, humanistic and rational-emotive behavioral counseling. I will tailor our dialog and treatment plan to meet your unique and specific needs.
It takes courage to seek for a more fulfilling and happier life and to take the first steps towards a change. If you are ready to take the next step, then I am here to support and empower you.
I look forward to working with you!
