I am a LPC based out of Texas offering virtual counseling services. With everyone's busy schedules between work, spouses, children, and other commitments, finding a convenient time and place to do therapy to take care of ourselves is essential. That is why I offer weekend and evening hours. I feel it is a privilege to be a safe space for clients to navigate life's obstacles.

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

The first session with me involves gathering information about my client. I will ask what your current support system looks like, adaptive and maladaptive coping skills, other personal questions, and client concerns so we, together, can create a plan.

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

I feel like my greatest strength is providing a non-judgmental space for my clients. I have found that even the most reserved clients feel comfortable discussing their personal issues within the first two sessions.

My treatment methods

Person-centered (Rogerian)

I believe all clients seeking therapy have the desire and capability to achieve their personal goals. Counseling sessions should make clients feel empowered and motivated for change.

Somatic

Somatic therapy has always been an interest of mine, since the body and mind are connected. Depending on client concerns, I offer various somatic techniques that are easy to incorporate throughout the day.
