During counseling sessions the client will be encouraged to discuss the problem areas in their life, and together we will explore the impact it is having on happiness and daily functioning. We will develop a plan of action so the client can start making beneficial changes in their life. You will receive encouragement and positive feedback. Clients will be expected to do work on their problem area in between sessions. It is up to the client if they want to explore their past and find reasons for the current problem area, or work in a more solution focused way, and just find a resolution for the current issue.

What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?

During the first session clients will have the opportunity to ask questions about therapy and about this clinician. If a client is comfortable, we can begin working on the problem area that made them seek assistance.

Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.

My areas of strength are to help clients grow, learn and take control of their lives. I have extensive experience in helping clients recover and break the cycle of abuse. Additionally, helping clients develop a sense of power and self-confidence.

Describe the client(s) you are best positioned to serve.

I have been successful in helping individuals recover from abuse, and learn to take charge of their life. It is a wonderful thing to see a client realize that they can live without being in that cycle of abuse. I have extensive training in teaching anger management and can teach clients to look at situations in a better, more beneficial manner, which will usually reduce angry outbursts. I am a Certified Clinical Trauma Professional and have helped many clients recover from extensive trauma and put PTSD behind them. I have worked with many victims of sexual abuse, processing their trauma. I am qualified to work with family members of sex offenders who are looking for support. I am not a Licensed Sex Offender Treatment Provider and cannot provide counseling in that area in the State of Texas.
