I am a born and raised Texan who now finds herself living in the land of Oklahoma. I have known that I wanted to be a counselor since I was in junior high school. Our family was going through some difficult times, and our counselor really made a difference in my life for the better! I graduated in 1998 with a Bachelor of Arts degree from Lubbock Christian University, and began my work in the field of mental health. I then went on to complete my Master of Arts degree in Counseling from Dallas Baptist University in 2002. I obtained my licensure as a professional counselor in the State of Texas in 2005, and also have my counseling license in Oklahoma as well. I keep my licenses active in both states as I'm never sure where life will have me next. I have worked in many different areas of mental health... and the one thing I keep coming back to is wanting to be able to work one on one with a person... find out what makes them tick, find out where they are hurting and do what I can to help them find solutions to their problems. I use a lot of cognitive behavioral techniques, I believe that identifying and challenging our irrational thoughts can make a huge impact on how we feel and act. I'm laid back, love to laugh, listen to WAY too many audio books, and love spending time with my husband, Chris, my cat, Bella and my dogs, Dakota and Mr. Paco. I love football, road trips and going on cruises.

Welcome! Something in your life has initiated this search for support and you have come to the right place. I admire that courage. It takes a wise person to seek out counseling support in getting the life they want and I want to help you get there. I am very excited to have the opportunity to connect with you and support you to the best of my abilities. To get started I wanted to let you know a little about myself as it is important to me to know a little bit about who you are entrusting to let into your life. I have a master’s degree in counseling and Development from Texas Woman’s University (2017) and I am a Licensed Professional Counselor. I have had 4 years working with an array of clients at a Domestic Violence shelter, family counseling center, and Crisis support. Through these experiences I truly have been able to help clients identify their own needs and help them through fostering a sense of emotional support during very trying life events. I have helped clients of all ages overcome an array of concerns such as transitional life events, anxiety, depression, behavioral concerns, suicidal thoughts, and grief. In these experiences I have had the honor to be a part of people’s lives in vulnerable times to help them grow and not only overcome life events or challenges but helping them foster a sense of resilience. My counseling style is warm and engaging and I truly believe in the power of empathy by truly being present with another person to fully understand them in an unconditional regard for who they are. My approach is based on the Adlerian therapy that is focused on helping individuals identify goals and whole person health. I believe all individuals can make positive decisions. I hope to help you gain confidence and support you through different life trials by challenging any fears or doubts to help you become the best version of yourself. I can’t wait to continue to support you and help you draw the map to your next stop in life! I look forward to working with you!

Frequently asked questions (FAQs) about therapists and mental health services

Some other commonly asked questions on therapy with a licensed counselor and BetterHelp serving the Thrall area can be found below:

How does the cost of in-person sessions with a therapist compare to the cost of BetterHelp?

The average price of an in-person therapy session in the US with most therapists is $100 to $200 per hour. These prices may be higher in Thrall due to a higher cost of living, and a limited number of therapists taking new clients. The price also depends on the type of provider you are looking for. See the following average prices for various mental health providers without insurance:

  • With a psychiatrist: $150-$500
  • With therapists: $100-300
  • With a clinician: $100

While many psychologists in Thrall may not take health insurance, some in the state of Texas may work on a sliding scale, meaning they'll factor in your income and charge what you can afford per session. With a BetterHelp therapist throughout the state of Texas you can expect significantly more affordable options, with sessions ranging from $65 to $100 per week (billed every four weeks).
