I am licensed in Texas with five years working as a social worker, but many years of lived experience. My primary areas of focus include depression, anxiety, trauma, and grief, with specific trainings in EMDR and grief counseling. Therapy is not a one-size-fits-all endeavor, so we build a treatment plan together based off where you are now, your needs, and your goals. I approach therapy from a strengths perspective as I work with people to build resilience, promote self-determination, and learn effective coping skills. A journey begins with a single step, I would be honored to be able to walk with you as you work to improve the balance of life and the many roles we play.
Additional areas of focus: Attachment issues, Communication problems, Drug and alcohol addiction, Forgiveness, Guilt and shame, Isolation / loneliness, Post-traumatic stress, Sexual assault and abuse, Women's issues, Young adult issues
Clinical approaches: Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT)

She is very patient and asked the right questions to help guide me in finding my own answers
