Life can be hard work and I am here to help you through the inevitable struggles. Whether you are facing a major circumstantial stressor, or if there are continuing patterns that you need to process with a professional, I would be delighted to walk with you through your therapeutic needs as your therapist. I have extensive experience working with a wide spectrum of individuals with varying mental health, cultural, racial, religious, sexual, and gender backgrounds. My main goal as your therapist is to help you feel seen, valued, and empowered to be the best version of yourself. After obtaining my Master's Degree in counseling over a decade ago, I completed a post-masters internship at a large, non-profit counseling center in the Houston metro area.  After obtaining my license, I continued to work in the non-profit sector and also continued in private practice. Over the years I have completed additional training in working with both married and dating couples through John Gottman method training, the premier researcher on marital success, satisfaction, and therapy. I also continued my education by becoming a certified sex therapist. Although I have an extensive background working with couples, therapy comes down each individual’s work in their own lives. All of my training and education has carried with it thoughtful integration of current mental health treatment into each individual’s specific therapeutic process. I intentionally create a safe, open space to explore sensitive issues in order for my clients to be able to safely and openly process in a healing environment. What I'm most passionate about is you, the client, and what you need right now at this very moment in your life. I genuinely care about each individual that sits in front of me and I honor each of their stories, where they’ve come from, where they are currently, and the potential they have inside of them. It would be an honor to be your therapist. Feel free to message me to schedule an appointment so we can plan together how to help you have the life you long for.

My undergraduate Degree is in Physical Education/English from the University of Texas/Arlington. I taught High School English and coached women's Volleyball, Basketball, Track and Cross Country before completing my Masters Degree in Counseling from the University of Texas/Denton. I find that my teaching and coaching experience has greatly enhanced my skills as a counselor/therapist. I connect easily with people and gain their trust rather quickly and am able to teach them and motivate them to become their very best. I have experience working with Military personnel and their family members as a Department of Defense Counselor and as a Military Family Life Counselor. I have experience working with substance abuse having provided counseling for persons ordered to treatment by the courts. I have been providing counseling services for over twenty seven years both in private practice and as a full time employee, first with Dallas County Probation, then Department of Defense, then MHN as a consultant with the Military community. I have a very eclectic approach to therapy. I have to see what the client resonates with then offer that for them. I believe every person deserves to be safe and happy and i give my very best to help them achieve this. Because I have done a lot of trauma work i do a lot of work around the inner child. When you are raised in a dysfunctional homeor have experienced abuse and/or trauma the inner child, the keeper of the feelings often shows up to add a wrinkle to your present life. It is necessary to connect with the inner child and do some healing work in order to be happy in your present life. Sometimes it is hard but the end result is a completely happy person, comfortable in their own skin and in control of their emotions.
