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 nineteen 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!

When we want to change, developing emotional awareness helps the healing process. I have held space with my clients to discover this for 18 years using a variety of techniques from Motivational Interviewing and Cognitive Behavior Therapy to Dialectical Behavior Therapy. Sometimes who we need is a collaborator and coach and at other times someone to validate our experience and I will be this for you. I believe the quality of our working relationship is essential to the quality of your outcomes and we will make sure to incorporate this feedback. Ultimately I would like you to say everything. Many of the people I have worked with over the years have had experiences with substance use or feeling marginalized by how they identify. Together we will develop strategies towards resilience and steps toward change.

Hello, and thank you for checking out my profile! I am fully invested in providing a welcoming environment that promotes and embodies diversity and inclusivity for all. Currently working with Texas residents only. I am LGBTQIA2S+ allied, non-binary ally, BIPOC allied, racial justice allied, neurodiversity allied, disability ally, cancer survivorship ally, and a strong supporter of racial healing, transformative justice, and social change. I am not here to fix you because you are not broken. I am here to empower you to uncover your answers and facilitate your self-healing. Everything that I offer aims at guiding you to the core of who you really are. To support you, I incorporate values of freedom of expression, respect for uniqueness and choice, and I utilize embodiment and energy medicine practices, intuition, and imagination as facilitating instruments to identify and move beyond obstacles. I see the body as a powerful instrument for healing the mind and soul. With a background in somatic counseling psychology (body psychotherapy & dance movement therapy), kundalini yoga, mindfulness, meditation, qi gong, ancestral healing practices, and conscious dance movement, I offer a relational and intuitive style that blends creativity with honest, straightforward guidance. My work is holistic and conscious, soul-centered coaching-informed. To address trauma I enjoy working with Somatic Experiencing (SE), ART (Accelerated Resolution Therapy), and Imagery Therapy. We would work with trauma on a short-term basis with the intention to gently guide you through a focused healing journey that can help you with challenges such as: • Emotion Regulation • Anxiety and Depression • Accountability/Self-Responsibility/Transitioning from Victim to Victor • PTSD-Trauma/Soul Wound • LGBTQIA2S+ (systemic discrimination, stigma, lack of acceptance, etc.) • Cultural Affirmation & Responsiveness • Racial & Ancestral Identity Healing Race (systemic discrimination, stigma, lack of acceptance due to race, ethnicity, or skin color) • Current political climate (profound emotional, physical, and psychological distress caused by current political events that trigger past personal traumas, often manifesting as anxiety, depression, panic attacks, helplessness, rage, shock, numbness, physical aches, etc.) • Self-Esteem, Self-Compassion & Self-Forgiveness • HSP (Highly Sensitive Person) • Codependency • Coping Skills • Self-Esteem • Emotional Distress Syndrome of ADHD • Life Transitions "Traumatic symptoms are not caused by the triggering event itself. They stem from the frozen residue of energy that has not been resolved and discharged; this residue remains trapped in the nervous system where it can wreak havoc on our bodies and spirits." ~ Peter Levine My ultimate goal is to help you “live on purpose” and to remind you that you have a place here, on earth, and in the universe; that you belong. To get there, to reclaim your wholeness, it is imperative to welcome all of yourself; the good, the bad, and the ugly. Consequently, to call back all of the parts of your soul that ultimately belong to you, takes inner work that integrate body, mind, heart, and spirit. Together we can explore new pathways to wellness and personal growth. I am committed to soulful work that empowers and reconnects you to your inner wisdom. All of my offerings are meant to integrate various holistic healing practices in order to orient you in taking more charge of your personal journey. My passion is to facilitate whole person healing; let me know if you would like me to support yours.

Finding a licensed therapist near you in Texas can be an important step toward improving your mental health and overall well-being. Whether you’re dealing with anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, stress, or major life changes, working with a qualified mental health professional can offer meaningful support.

BetterHelp connects you with licensed therapists authorized to practice in Texas, allowing you to attend sessions online from the comfort of your home.

Why work with a licensed therapist near you?

Working with a licensed therapist near you ensures that your provider meets state licensing requirements and professional standards in Texas (TX). Licensed therapists use evidence-based approaches to help individuals manage emotional challenges, develop coping skills, and work toward personal goals.

People seek therapy for many reasons. Some are navigating ongoing mental health concerns, while others want guidance during stressful periods or major life transitions. You do not need a mental health diagnosis to work with a therapist. Many individuals seek therapy to improve communication, strengthen relationships, manage stress, or gain greater self-awareness.

Online therapy can be especially helpful for people living across Texas, where access to in-person mental health care may vary by location.

What concerns can therapists help with?

Therapists on BetterHelp support adults across Texas with a wide range of mental health concerns and life challenges, including:

Online therapy vs. in-person therapy in Texas
