Hi! I'm a Licensed Professional Counsellor (LPC) based in Texas. I received my Masters from the University of Texas San Antonio and have been practicing for 12 years. With cognitive behavioral therapy, trauma-focused cognitive behavioral therapy as well as solution focused brief therapy, the change you want is within reach. I also offer training to reduce anxiety and stress induced by over stimuli. Children receive therapy, allowing them to express themselves through play. Your treatment plan is customized to help you resolve your counseling needs, so you can began living the life you want and envisioned. Don't wait, live your best life today.
In our first session together, we'll start with introductions, then continue with ice breakers to help us establish rapport. This allows us to relax and start gaining trust so that you feel at ease as you discuss your concerns. This will help me create a tailored plan for us to work through in follow-up sessions.
I've been a provider for 12 years. Being a retired school counselor has given me the patience and understanding needed to provide you with the best guidance possible. Active listening is also a strength that helps me as a provider.
I love working with children, adolescents and adults. My experience as a school counselor allows me many years of hands on experience. My clients are enthusiastic with some overwhelming feelings. Given the necessary tools to help them, they learn to cope with underlying feelings which leads to anxiety, depression and other high emotions.
Clients who have experienced traumatic experiences are taught coping strategies and skills to help them manage overwhelming thoughts, feelings and behaviors.
