I have been a professional counselor in Texas for over 12 years. I received my BS in Psychology and MA in Counseling from Midwestern State University in Wichita Falls. I served as counselor for the mental health community centers in Texas for over 10 years and helped many people with a wide range of mental health challenges. I am also trained in trauma informed care. I worked for 3 years with military personnel and their families on issues related to mental health, family relationships, and military service. My primary tools for counseling are solution focused therapy, cognitive therapy, and helping you to define what constitutes a happy and healthy life while supporting you in achieving it. We can incorporate mindfulness, positive psychology, cognitive therapy, and any number of therapeutic tools to get you to where you feel you want and need to be. All services I provide are client centered and seek to fulfill your needs in a way that provides increased clarity, stability, and a greater sense of peace.

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor and a Licensed Chemical Dependency Counselor in Texas with 9 years of experience working as a counselor. I have a passion for working with people and walking with them through their life experiences and to help them toward their identified goals. I see counseling as a safe place to address the thoughts about ourselves and the world and to evaluate how these thoughts impact our emotions and behaviors. I utilize the counseling process to strengthen coping skills, thought-changing skills, as well as conflict resolution and communication skills. I utilize cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) and motivational interviewing techniques. I also have experience in the areas of chemical dependency, relational issues, as well as trauma. I see the process of counseling as one that is relational and collaborative. It is through counseling that we get the opportunity to see how we view ourselves, relate with others, and respond to the challenges of life.

I would look forward to working with you with what you have been experiencing and creating a comfortable, safe space and for building deeper understanding and coping strategies that can help. I can accept clients who are able to fit into my Tues/Thurs morning schedule at this time from about 9:15-11:30 am, varies by the week or I will try to find a daytime appt that could work within my Tues/Thurs availability. Clients on the mostly messaging plan with 1 session per month would be a good fit with me, but I will have more Tu/Th morning/day availability by mid-August. We would be able to use the messaging often for therapeutic feedback, coping and communication strategies, worksheets, suggestions and to gain perspective. I will typically be able to respond to your message by the end of the day or within 24 hrs. I only offer individual counseling and not couples or family counseling. I am licensed in Texas with 12 years of professional work experience. I am easy to talk to and a great listener. Whether I am counseling or in my personal life, people naturally feel comfortable opening up with me. I believe in counseling to help you build on and recognize your strengths. The more you open yourself up to counseling, the more you will benefit. My clients often ask me if I have ever heard of anyone else having similar feelings and difficulties that they are experiencing and I reassure them that they are not alone. Together, we will create and enhance ways of coping that will work for you. I specialize and enjoy working with adult individuals, both male and female, with anxiety, depression, life transition, relationship, or stress management difficulties. I have a deep interest and am happy to be certified by Postpartum Support International to work with women with mood difficulties both during and after pregnancy. I look forward to meeting you soon!

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.

  • With therapists: $100-300
