Hi! I am a licensed counselor based in Austin, Texas. My style is friendly, focused, and down-to-earth. I aim to be helpful with each individual I work with, and take pride in designing a therapy that will really work for you. I’ve trained in a variety of approaches and find that virtually all approaches offer something valuable. However, I believe the classic fundamentals of therapy - empathy and a good collaborative therapeutic relationship - are the primary basis for effective therapy and therefore I put a lot of effort into these. One of my views about life is that it is often asking for various forms of balance: Balancing kindness and strength, tenderness and toughness, openness and clarity, relaxation and alertness. And so in therapy, I always strive to create the right balance for you of supportiveness and challenge. And, I invite and encourage your candid feedback about the process (and by candid I mean candid - really!) so I can make appropriate adjustments. Therapy, like life, can be a wonderful adventure and I’m glad for the opportunity to support you in the journey. *** Education: St. Edwards University, Masters in Counseling, 2012.

I've become very familiar with many aspects of the mental health field. I work with motivated clients willing to take responsibility for becoming well and happy. I build on clients strengths and partner with the client to address problems head-on. I don't focus on diagnosis, but prefer to see each person as an individual capable of overcoming problems and reaching her/his goals. I work with the person as a whole being, spirit soul and body, and am willing to address issues of spirituality if the client chooses. I specialize in dealing with addictions, men's issues. I specialize in building on the strengths of each individual, and maximizing their quality of life through embracing their God-given potential.

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC and Certified Clinical Trauma Professional (CCTP) Certification. I proudly served in the U.S. Navy for 22 years. During my military career I gained a wealth of knowledge working with sailors suffering from addictions, depression, trauma, and other life challenges. My military experience coupled with my 10 years of community counseling has exposed me to the devastating struggles individuals face. Therefore, my passion is building collaborative counseling relationships to help individuals heal and thrive to reach their highest possible potential. My theoretical orientation is Cognitive-Behavioral Theory (CBT) and Solution-Focused Based Therapy (SFBT). Both approaches focus on solutions to empower individuals to improve their quality of life. The human mind is extremely complex. Therefore, an eclectic approach is often needed. CBT and SFBT are approaches that are ideal for integrating with other approaches as needed. My mission is to provide a safe, judgmental free, supportive environment in which individuals can heal.
