Hi! I'm a Licensed Clinical Social Worker based in Texas. I received my Masters from Valdosta State University in Valdosta, GA and have been a Social Worker for 11 years. A majority of my career has been spent working in the medical field and mental health. I have experience working with clients from various backgrounds. I have experience working with clients with mood disorders, such as depression and bi-polar, to clients struggle with hallucinations.

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

In our first session together, we'll start with brief introductions, then dive into the specific challenges you're facing. While providing historical context to what they are struggling with. This will help me create a tailored plan for us to work through in follow-up sessions.

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

Having worked with various clients, I've developed a tried-and-true playbook for helping you (a) identify the root cause of your challenges and (b) create a tailored plan that leads to measurable progress.

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

I love working who are ready to engage in a therapeutic alliance. My clients are eager to improve, but don't yet have the tools needed to make this goal a reality. They often feel stuck, overwhelmed and anxious about their state they are currently in.

My treatment methods

Christian Counseling

I have experience providing Christian counseling, I support individuals seeking this approach by offering insights into how it may benefit them, suggesting related resources, or explaining how it can be applied in various therapeutic contexts. My goal is to assist people in understanding how they can integrate faith with mental health support for a more comprehensive and personalized healing journey.

Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)

I can provide educational resources and guidance about how CBT techniques work and how individuals might apply them to their own lives. I can also offer support in understanding how to approach common issues with a CBT framework, focusing on thought patterns, emotional regulation, and behavior change. The strength of CBT lies in its ability to empower individuals to make tangible changes in how they think and behave, providing them with lifelong tools for managing mental health.

Psychodynamic

Psychodynamic therapy focuses on uncovering unconscious thoughts, early childhood experiences, and internal conflicts to help individuals understand the root causes of their current emotional struggles. Techniques such as free association, dream analysis, transference, and defense mechanism analysis are commonly used to explore the unconscious mind and bring unresolved issues to light. Through the therapeutic relationship and long-term exploration, clients gain insight into their behaviors, emotions, and interpersonal patterns, allowing for emotional healing and healthier coping mechanisms. This self-awareness empowers clients to break free from old patterns and build more adaptive ways of relating to themselves and others.

Dialectical Behavior (DBT)

Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) is a well-structured, evidence-based treatment that can be particularly helpful for individuals who struggle with intense emotions, self-destructive behaviors, and interpersonal challenges. It combines mindfulness, acceptance, and change strategies to help clients improve emotional regulation, build healthier relationships, and develop effective coping mechanisms. DBT is typically delivered through a combination of individual therapy, group skills training, and phone coaching, providing clients with comprehensive support to practice and integrate DBT skills into their daily lives. This structured approach allows clients to make meaningful changes, leading to long-term emotional stability and healthier behaviors.

Strength-Based

Strengths-based therapy is an empowering and collaborative approach that focuses on an individual’s inherent strengths and resources to promote healing and growth. By identifying strengths, reframing challenges, and fostering a positive and hopeful outlook, strengths-based therapy encourages clients to draw on their internal and external resources to overcome obstacles. In my practice, I work alongside the client to build self-awareness, set positive goals, and navigate difficulties in a way that emphasizes resilience and empowerment. This approach is client-centered, with a focus on helping clients recognize their potential and create positive change based on their existing abilities.
