Hi! I'm a Licensed Professional Counsellor (LPC) based in Texas. I received my Masters in mental health counseling from the University of Cumberland and have been practicing in mental health for over 9 years. I have 4 years of clinical experience in a large military mental health clinic and just retired from the military . I help adults, veterans, military and their families struggle with relationship issues, trauma, anxiety, and depression.
In our first session together, we'll start with brief introductions, then dive into the specific challenges you're facing. In next several sessions, my number one priority is to understand how you see the world and what issues you are facing that have negatively impacted important areas of your life. This will help me create a tailored plan for us to work through in follow-up sessions.
Having worked in several areas of mental health, I have gained a unique approach to treating clients. My number one priority is to treat each client as a human and have faith in every client to be the best version of themselves and provide guidance to obtain their goals in life. Over the past 9 years, 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.
I love working with adults, those who served in the military, those who are still serving, and military dependents who are struggling due to relationship issues, depression, and anxiety related to career and military stressors. 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 because of the unique stressors of military life or those who are transitioning to civilian life which can be scary. I also trained in several therapies that have shown to decrease symptoms of PTSD related to trauma and increase life satisfaction.
Do you struggle with feeling overwhelmed over little things, loss of one self, feeling helpless and struggle to live in the present moment that affects your day to day living, ability to function at work and at home, and negatively impacts your relationships. Do you hope that you daily life could be better? Now more than even many people are feeling anxious about finding their place in life, overcoming a difficult relationship and moving past old scars. I offer a wide range of therapies for diverse mental health conditions, including depression, anxiety, PTSD, and relationship issues. My approach combines proven therapeutic techniques with a holistic, empathetic understanding of each person's experiences and needs. My mission is to create a safe, non-judgmental space where you can feel heard and understood. I believe the foundation of successful therapy lies in a strong, trusting therapeutic relationship. Together, we will work to foster meaningful change and help you move towards your ideal self. Please contact me if are ready to take the first step toward healing!
