Therapists in South Houston, TX
The Spencer Highway was built by elephants owned by South Houston mayor George Christy years ago. These big animals made a big difference. If little problems have become big problems, or if your family or friends have become concerned about your well-being, and you too are concerned, don’t ignore the elephant in the room.
Therapists in the South Houston area can help work through issues of this magnitude by contributing appropriate solutions. They can also help you with the smaller problems too. Please don't hesitate to reach out to a nearby mental health professional today.

All of us face difficulties or unexpected challenges at some point in our lives, and sometimes it can feel too overwhelming to manage on our own. I have a compassionate, supportive, and caring approach to counseling, and I know reaching out for help is not easy. Through the counseling process, I can help you to find some peace of mind, and develop your inner strength to move forward. I am a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor (LPC) in the state of Texas. I have over sixteen years of counseling experience. I earned my graduate degree in marriage and family counseling in California in 2005, and my wife and I moved to Texas in 2009. My counseling style combines compassion and empathy with a solution-focused approach, utilizing various forms of mindfulness and cognitive-based therapies, such as acceptance commitment therapy, to explore how thoughts and coping styles influence how we manage our feelings. I specialize in depression, anxiety, grief, men's issues, trauma, and relationship issues; and, I help my clients to counter irrational thoughts and beliefs, assess their needs, build on their strengths, and focus on their goals. I look forward to the opportunity to work with you.

“All the world is full of suffering. It is also full of overcoming.” – Helen Keller I strive to empower my clients to reach their goals and live more meaningful lives. When we are able to find meaning in our suffering, we break free from our self-made prisons and adopt more adaptive perspectives of our problems. Increasing awareness of our thoughts, feelings, and behaviors can be a pathway to this freedom as we uncover the impact that these subconscious domains have on our happiness. It takes a lot of courage to ask for the help that you need, so give yourself credit for taking that first step here. I received my Master of Arts degree in Counseling Psychology from Texas Woman's University in 2012 and my Bachelor of Arts degree in Sociology from The University of Texas at Arlington in 2006. My Master's thesis explored the relationships between Depression, Resilience, and Coping Strategies. Currently, I conduct extensive research in the area of Health Psychology, focusing on Behavioral Sleep Medicine. To build on my holistic view of treatment, I completed training through the International Association of Eating Disorders Professionals to become a Certified Eating Disorder Specialist. Most recently, I have specialized in seeing clients with binge-eating disorder and substance use disorder. I have also been an invited lecturer on the subjects of eating disorders, mindfulness, and meditation. I integrate many theoretical orientations into treatment with emphases on cognitive-behavioral, emotion-focused, and person-centered approaches. Combining different approaches allows me to utilize various therapeutic techniques based on unique needs of individual clients. I also focus on clients' strengths in order to facilitate development of their full potential.

“When life gives you lemons, make lemonade” is a metaphor used to encourage optimism and a positive can-do attitude in the face of adversity. Lemons represent adversity or difficulty in life and making lemonade is turning those difficulties into something sweet or positive. It is estimated that 1 in 4 people will experience a mental health disorder at one point in their lives. Consequently, nearly two-thirds of those people living with a mental disorder never seek help from a health professional.
