I believe that many people come to a point in their lives where their circumstances can become overwhelming they could benefit from someone that can be present through their difficult time. I want to be available to listen to people when they are in these hard times and help them find solutions and strategies to get through these times. My professional experience has been with clients that are in very challenging situations and I would like to use that experience to help others live a better life. I primarily operate in Dialectical Behavior Therapy and and Cognitive Behavior Theory. I believe these approaches offer the most comprehensive and efficient solutions in therapy. The training and education that I have received help me be able to help a wide range of issues that many people face.

What I enjoy most about being a therapist is that each session is a collaborative effort in which both the client and therapist leaves the session with a learning experience that contributes to discovery and growth. I believe that all experiences (good, bad, ugly) are for the purpose of learning and letting go and that therapy is one of the best ways to explore what needs to be learned and let go so a sense of worth and purpose can be fully realized and experienced. I am a licensed professional counselor working in the state of Texas for over 7 years. I have worked with clients with a wide range of concerns including depression, anxiety, bipolar, trauma, psychosis, addiction, low self worth, and shame issues that have impacted their ability to thrive in relationships and life. My therapy style is compassionate, caring, and person-centered. I seek to create an environment of mutual respect and trust, connectivity, collaboration, courage, creativity, and confidence in self. My approach is grounded in cognitive behavioral approaches that include internal family systems and dialectical behavioral therapy. If you are ready to let go of the burden and chaos that has kept you feeling stuck, unable to find yourself staying in the present moment, and lacking in joy then I would be grateful for the opportunity to guide you in healing. Give yourself the gift of knowing you are safe, protected, blessed, and loved. I look forward to working with you!

We all have unique needs and goals from treatment. As this is true, I do not offer a one size fits all approach. Various causes and conditions impact us each differently and it is in the partnership we form, the co-operation we engage in, and how progress towards goals are made. Motivation for change in any area also varies and this is what creates our unique experience together. I offer a safe and non-judgemental space to express thoughts, feelings, and actions that may be impacting your life. I offer experience in several treatment approaches and personalities. I work to help bring awareness and self-exploration to the extent one would like to experience. I am presently a LCSW (Licensed Clinical Social Worker) and LCDC (Licensed Chemical Dependency Counselor) in the State of Texas. I have supplemented these with a CTP (Clinical Trauma Professional) certification and a CEF (Certified Experiential Facilitator - Deep Waters Recovery Program).
