Hello, and thanks for visiting my profile! My top specialties as a clinician include PTSD and Trauma, Addiction (both chemical and behavioral), along with Depression and other mood disorders. My therapeutic approaches involve pulling from many counseling techniques to find an approach that best fits the individual client. Some of those techniques include Cognitive Behavioral, Person Centered, Reality, and Narrative type therapies. I use an informed consent model, as knowledge equals empowerment. A little about me - Counseling was something I had always wanted to do, but I didn't pursue it until later in life. Years ago, I lost a spouse to suicide, and the grief was consuming. Once I was able to see more clearly, I enrolled in a Master of Counseling program in hopes of being able to ease the grief of others in similar situations. I did get my degree and My LPC (Licensed Professional Counselor) license, and also accumulated significant life experience which, in short, has helped me become the therapist I want to be. For example, I am a recovering addict, going on fourteen years' clean time, and am active in twelve step recovery. Also, I am a proud member of the LGBTQIA community. Before making my decision to become a remote-based therapist, I accumulated significant on-site work experience. Some of that includes working with domestic violence survivors, addiction (men's and women's, both out patient and residential), plus children's residential, and crisis stabilization. I look forward to working with you!

As a licensed counselor in the state of Texas (LPC), I have worked in the field of counseling since 2019. My training comes from a variety of settings including hospitals, local community agencies, and in a local church. Much of my experience includes assisting individuals in areas concerning abuse, trauma, depression, anxiety, coping skills, grief, miscarriage, and self-esteem issues. I offer Christian, client-centered therapy techniques with the inclusion of cognitive behavioral methods. I understand that I should focus on what people believe about themselves, others, and the world around them. I concentrate on the fact that we are all given willpower to make our own choices regarding beliefs, thoughts, actions, and emotions. I place much value in a holistic approach that incorporates the mind, body, and spirit and I recognize that each person holds varying perspectives and needs. I am seeking to assist you in setting and achieving your goals and this can be gained by examining and changing thought patterns that are negative and problematic; as well as exploring feelings and identifying behaviors that are hindering your potential and/or are self-destructive. The purpose of counseling is to learn how to have healthier and more satisfying relationships and to live life according to your beliefs and values. If you would rather that I not examine or integrate faith principles into the counseling sessions, I will respectfully adhere to this requested preference.
