Hello, I’m excited you found me. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor-Supervisor in the great state of Texas offering many years of education and counseling experience in different settings including individual sessions, homeless shelters, church settings, and community outreach. Are you currently struggling with anxiety (often masked as stress), trauma, or even identity issues? Are you trying to navigate these areas of your life alone, because you feel no one truly understands what you are going through? You have been trying to navigate these areas in your life the best that you know how. However, you are growing tired and desire to try something different. I have worked with many who have felt the same as you. I hear you and I do understand. I would be honored to walk alongside you, while you are on your healing journey to becoming a better you. If you have ever wondered if therapy was for you? I’d say, yes, therapy is for you if you find yourself struggling to make decisions. Don’t know rather you are coming or going. Unsure about who you are currently. You are struggling to find peace. The provider will send a video link prior to the session.
Get to know me
In our first session together, here's what you can expect
In our first session, we'll start with introductions, then get right into the specific challenges you're facing. This will help me create a tailored plan for us to work through in follow-up sessions.
The treatment methods and tools I utilize
I realize that no two people are the same, which is why I tailor therapy to meet your specific needs as an individual. I am both a nurturing and direct therapist who utilizes a collaborative and compassionate approach to counseling in an effort to foster hope, healing, and resilience. I have extensive experience in trauma-informed care. While I am not a Christian Counselor, I am a Christian who incorporates biblical principles in the therapeutic process.
The biggest strengths that I bring into our sessions
My specialties include working with women as a certified trauma professional who suffers from identity and women's issues. This could include anxiety, trauma, and life challenges. I assist you in understanding the things that are holding you back with an in-depth approach. After recognizing underlying problems, I help you fully realize your strengths and adjust certain behaviors and thoughts to see things in a different, healthier way.
The clients I'm best positioned to serve
I am focused on women ages 18+ suffering from anxiety, women issues, and trauma
