Therapists in River Oaks, TX

Hi! I am a Licensed Professional Counselor in the state of Texas. I have a Bachelor of Arts degree from The University of North Texas in psychology and a Master of Arts in Counseling from Dallas Baptist University. I have an immense amount of experience working with individuals from all walks of life. I am experienced in therapeutic work with anxiety, depression, stress, self-injurious behaviors, trauma, psychosis, substance abuse, familial conflict, and grief. Using a conversational style, I encourage the processing of negative thinking patterns, problem-solving, and real-life interventions for you to experience change. I have adopted an approach to therapy that encompasses CBT and DBT. Therapy is hard, all of us here at BetterHelp understand that. You may feel worse before you start to feel better. THAT IS NORMAL! You’re kicking up emotions that you’ve worked hard to avoid for a long time. They will not be comfortable, and they will leave you with the urge to run to what you know. Know that the intensity of these emotions is TEMPORARY and the more you process through them the more manageable they will become. Don't let the fear of change keep you from doing something positive for yourself. I do greatly look forward to working with you! My current availability for video sessions: Monday - Friday - 30 minute slots available but times are subject to change on a weekly basis Saturdays - Unavailable Sundays - Unavailable For chat and phone sessions - there will be more flexibility regarding availability. I will do the best to work with your requests. I try to schedule standing weekly appointments with each client to provide consistency! Some days responses to messages will be quicker than other. Please allow 4-24 hours for a response. On weekends, response times will vary.
