Therapists in Bastrop, TX

My counseling philosophy is that life is short; so, the faster change can be achieved, the more time can be spend being free of negative emotions and believes, past traumas and hurts, and any guilt or shame that may be weighing you down. That does not mean that we will not slow down should we reach any of those hurts that needs to be approached gently and with patience. A bit about my history: I was born and raised in South Africa, where I obtained an Honors Degree in Psychology in 1986. The United States gave me the opportunity to further my studies in the field I am so passionate about, and I completed my Master’s degree in Counseling at Dallas Baptist University in 2012. Since then, I've been practicing as a Licensed Professional Counselor. Due to licensing requirements, I may unfortunately only provide counseling to people residing in Texas.

My Evening and standing appointments are done via zoom, are 60 minutes and are reserved for clients that are self-pay or utilizing their insurance. I accept some appointments via the BetterHelp calendar but BetterHelp sessions are limited to 45 minutes which essentially is 40 minutes of therapy. This is a limiting factor of the site; I am not paid for engaging with clients for longer than 45 minutes so it is important to come to these sessions prepared as our time here is somewhat limited. You do not have to go through this journey of life alone. Allow me to meet you where you are at and help be your guide in this amazing journey called life. Together we will find healing through proven models of treatment that I am formally trained in and have practiced for many years. I accept insurance as well and generally reserve later appointment openings for zoom calls and clients that prefer to utilize their insurance. https://www.psychologytoday.com/profile/1306521
