Trying to balance yourself emotionally, physically, spiritually, and mentally might feel like a lot on your plate. You should know that reaching out for help is a testament to your strength.
Working at your pace, we will ensure therapy is a safe environment to address your barriers and realize your goals. I aim to optimize the tools you already have and help you uncover new skills to make life more manageable. As your counselor, I would be honored to walk alongside you to overcome obstacles and help you leave therapy with a more in-depth understanding of your capabilities and resilience.
I am passionate about working with clients who are confronting everyday stressors, adjustment to change, relationship issues, trauma, self-esteem, multicultural concerns, and LGBTQIA+ issues. My therapeutic approach includes using client-centered therapy, existential theory, psychoanalytic theory, distress tolerance, interpersonal dynamics, and mindfulness. I am also skilled in crisis intervention and using artistic mediums in therapeutic settings.
LICENSE, EDUCATION, and EXPERIENCE
I became a Licensed Professional Counselor (#81846) in Texas after earning a Bachelor of Arts degree in Psychology from Texas Tech University and a Master of Science degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from the University of Texas in San Antonio. My career in the mental health field has included in-person and virtual work providing intake, assessment, individual and group therapy, psychoeducation, and discharge planning for teens and adults in diverse settings, including private practices, community health organizations, a corrections facility, a non-profit organization, and a psychiatric hospital.
It's hard to see your child suffering and feel powerless to help. Your child may struggle with anxiety, behavior, self-esteem, academics, or fitting in with peers. Maybe your child is recovering from a trauma, parental divorce, or death in the family. We have trained professionals here to help.
Types of Counseling
What will my first therapy session be like?
After looking over your paperwork and informing you about confidentiality, you and your counselor will discuss your concerns, symptoms, personal history, and treatment goals. Your counselor will decide if they are the best clinician to meet your needs, and you will decide if your counselor is a comfortable fit.
