Therapists in Texas

When I was training for this profession, a professor told me that "people only change when the pain of changing is less than the pain of staying the same." That quote has always stuck with me as a constant reminder of what a big step it is to ask for help. I am glad you are here. We all have stories. They govern our lives, shape our being, cause tremendous challenge, and become catalysts for growth. I have spent my time answering the call to meet people at critical points in their lives and walk with them through difficulty. I use a combination of solution-focused and cognitive behavioral therapy techniques to help people discover what works best for them. I believe in the power of the relationship between a therapist and a client. I believe in challenge and support. I believe in meeting people with compassion. I believe in humor as a therapeutic tool. I believe in harnessing your strengths to help you achieve your goals and I would love to help you do just that. That's my story. What's yours?

Greetings! I am a Licensed Professional Counselor in Texas with a combination of substance use treatment and individual and group therapy experience that I have gained over the past ten years. I have assisted individuals with addiction, depression, anxiety, anger, grief/loss, and self-love through this process. I have assisted individuals experiencing relief from past trauma and abuse while learning coping skills to help them navigate difficult situations and experiences. You are an important part of the healing process. As part of the process, I believe in listening and assisting you in developing working solutions and addressing your needs while using an approach that works for you. Using modalities such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Mindfulness-Based Practices, Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT), Eye Movement Desensitization Reprocessing (EMDR) may be some of the tools that will be used to help you on your path to healing. My goals are to treat you with respect and work with you at a pace that you feel comfortable with while providing support and encouragement and focusing on helping you get your needs met. At times, we all struggle with what can feel like overwhelming stress, and having someone to help us gain perspective and clarity can be beneficial in reducing the distress that we experience. One of the hardest things is asking for help when we are hurting. I am willing to provide a relaxing and safe setting for you to receive the support you need to feel better while moving forward toward your goals.
