About me

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor with over nine years of experience . I earned my Masters in the Science of Counseling Psychology from Tarleton State University, a member of A & M University in Texas. As a counselor, my hope is to create a supportive relationship that my client will feel validated, heard and seen within a safe environment.

Get to know me

In our first session together, here's what you can expect

In our first session, we will discuss important aspects of what counseling can provide for you. We will briefly go over what it is you are looking for in counseling and your hopes for your healing journey. We will spend this first session getting to know each other to determine how to meet your needs.

The biggest strengths that I bring into our sessions

I believe a collaborative and positive relationship between client and counselor proves to benefit the journey to healing. I believe in the Golden Rule and will reflectively listen with an open mind and heart, without judgement or labels. My Christian faith influences how I conduct myself and my counseling approach whenever a client requests this support. Counseling will be a team effort between client and therapist, as we create a treatment plan to meet your specific and unique needs. It is my honor and privilege to walk with you on your journey to healing.

The clients I'm best positioned to serve

Our path to healing is one that has to be chosen and desired. Our healing journey will take time and effort, yet can have much needed rewards afterwards. Majority of my experience is working with individuals within the context of childhood trauma. I am trained in Play Therapy, Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (TF-CBT), Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), Internal Family Systems (IFS), and Person Centered Therapy. Although I have experience and training in multiple modalities, I am eclectic in my approach to counseling as no one theory fits each client’s needs.

My treatment methods

EMDR

I have been trained in EMDR therapy modality by an EMDRIA certified program. I have been using EMDR to treat clients who have trauma, anxiety, and panic attacks. I have had training and success in utilizing EMDR via telehealth as well.

Trauma-Focused CBT

I have had extensive training in TF-CBT. This is the use of CBT with specific concentration on techniques for trauma. I have experience in using this modality with those who have endured childhood trauma.

Internal Family Systems (IFS)

I have had training in IFS. This modality is used to treat trauma, anxiety, depression, and feelings of disconnect with self. This modality treats the parts of self in order to heal the whole self.

Play Therapy

I have had extensive training and experience with play therapy. This modality is used for all ages in various aspects of addressing mental health issues. Play is an important part of learning, expression, and self regulation regardless of age.

Christian Counseling

We are not only mind and body but spirit as well. Addressing all aspects of our whole being can be beneficial to our healing journey. Majority of therapy modalities have a foundation that can be traced back to scriptural support. When a client request to have their spiritual needs supported or addressed, I am able to offer this support to them as well as other treatment modalities.

Anna has helped me change my life for the better. I wish I could select more than two of the therapy style options in this review, because Anna is all those things. Empowering, intelligent, open-minded, authentic, warm, and so much more. I sought treatment from Anna as an adult facing a great deal of unresolved childhood trauma. Based on my experience with her, however, I would trust her implicitly with the treatment of anyone in my circle of friends and family. She's the best.
