About me

At Family Life Counseling we have an extensive background and experience in working with Couples, Families, and Individuals. Our Therapists offer a down to earth and practical approach to our clients by understanding the challenges it takes to make a relationship work. We work within the strengths of our clients to help develop skills and insight which can lead to a more fulfilled life.

Get to know me

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

At Family Life Counseling we understand that sometimes our journey's can come with some unexpected hardships, struggles, and confusion. We offer our clients and families an empathic non-judgmental approach through counseling that can help them begin the process of living a more emotionally fulfilled life.

The biggest strengths that I bring into our sessions

I work with Couples to help them to better understand each other and communicate their wants and needs. We facilitate the understanding of each others shared narrative about the relationship, lets face it, often times it is not just what is happening in the relationship that is the problem but the story we tell ourselves about it every day.

The clients I'm best positioned to serve

It is our hope that Family Life Counseling can be a benefit for all of our clients as we are committed to helping those in the D.F.W area.
