I am a highly experienced counselor dedicated to supporting individuals across all age groups, including military families through various life stages. As a military parent and former middle school teacher and counselor, I possess a deep understanding of family dynamics and the challenges unique to these environments. My expertise includes addressing family structure challenges and guiding clients through grief and loss using evidence-based methods such as Solution Focused Brief Treatment and Grief Therapy. I specialize in working with school-aged children (ages 10+), adolescents, and adults.

What I enjoy most about being a therapist is that each session is a collaborative effort in which both the client and therapist leaves the session with learning experiences that contributes to discovery and growth. Life is about living, learning, loving, and liberating. I believe that all experiences (good, bad, ugly) are for the purpose of learning and letting go of thoughts, feelings, and actions that no longer serve us or others well. Therapy is one of the best ways to explore what needs to be learned and let go so a sense of worth and purpose can be fully realized and experienced. I am a licensed professional counselor working in the state of Texas for over nine years. I have worked with clients with a wide range of concerns including depression, anxiety, bipolar, trauma, psychosis, addiction, low self worth, and shame issues that have impacted their ability to thrive in relationships with self and others from a place of self-worth, self-confidence, and self-compassion. My therapy style is compassionate, caring, and person-centered. I seek to create an environment free of shaming, blaming, and judging of self and others to promote connectivity, collaboration, courage, creativity, and confidence in self and others. My approach is grounded in cognitive behavioral approaches that include internal family systems and dialectical behavioral therapy. If you are ready to let go of the burden and chaos that has kept you feeling stuck, unable to find yourself staying in the present moment and lacking in calm, contentment, clarity, courage, and creativity, then I would be grateful for the opportunity to guide you in healing those parts of you seeking liberation from that which no longer serve you well. Give yourself the gift of knowing you are safe, protected, blessed, and loved. I look forward to working with you!

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor and Licensed Social Worker in the State of Texas with 25 years of experience ranging from early childhood treatment to the elderly. My approach in therapy is of a Person-Centered, Solution-Focused nature and I have assisted clients with a wide range of concerns including significant life changes, parenting, foster care and adoption, divorce or separation, grief and loss, childhood or adult traumas, family issues, domestic abuse, relationship issues, early childhood intervention and medical needs, compassion fatigue, career, and individual spiritual walk. I focus on assisting the client with addressing emotional struggles and in how to face life events in a way that is safe, healthy and positive for them individually and not in comparison to others as each of our lives are unique and at times complicated. Working with a client to see that their life and situation may be unique BUT that they are definitely NOT ALONE and that there is both Hope and Help, is what drives me to continue with my passion to counsel those seeking support as they take their journey in this life. I want each client to feel that they are being heard and valued as they walk through situations with me and get help finding solutions to their need at hand. Oftentimes, a client simply needs to have a sounding board to help them line out their emotions and a course of action but then at other times they simply need professional support in learning about options for tools to use and approaches they can take as they work to address an issue at hand. The combination of my training in social work along with professional counseling, lends well to me working with a client needing both a person-centered but also a solution-focused approach to assist with positive and supportive change.

On Tuesdays, 7-8:30pm Central, I facilitate the support group Optimizing Resilience: A Christian Perspective, where we support each other and explore ways to expand resilience including discussing topics like seeing adversity as temporary, how our belief informs perseverance, focusing on what we can control, nurturing healthy relationships, processing emotions, sharing coping skills, living a healthy lifestyle, breaking goals down into baby steps, cultivating optimism and awe, and lastly, redirecting negativity toward positivity and compassion.
