Located between Houston and Austin, La Grange is the county seat of Fayette County. One of the hottest cities in Texas it sits in the valley of the Colorado River and is peppered with historical sites. In the 19 th century there was an influx of German and Czech immigrants and to this day their influences are still apparent in customs, events and architecture.

One of the negatives of living in a small town with conservative beliefs and ideals is that the people around you may find it difficult to support, understand or embrace the concept of mental illness. However, that shouldn’t stop you from seeking help and if anything it should push you to contact a professional so they can help you deal with whatever mental illness you are struggling with.

I have been a licensed professional counselor in Texas since 2018. Prior to becoming a counselor, I retired as a school principal where I worked with countless adolescents and their families. Further, I was a business owner and served in the military. I work with clients of all races, ethnicities, and socioeconomic status. My clients range from adolescents to retired adults experiencing a wide range of concerns such as overwhelming stress, anxiety, relationship issues, PTSD, parenting problems, addictions, and career challenges. Many of my clients have experienced emotional trauma from sexual assault, both physical and emotional abuse, as well as neglect. My counseling style is conversational and casual. I believe in treating everyone with respect, empathy, and compassion. My approach combines cognitive-behavioral therapy, choice theory, and rational-emotive therapy. We will work together to create and follow a treatment plan that meets your unique and specific needs, which will enable you to confidently make choices that will empower you. If you are ready to live the life that you want then I look forward to working with you.
