I received my Masters Degree in Counseling at the University of North Texas in Denton Texas. I come from a cognitive behavioral orientation although I also use gestalt therapy. I have treated mental health and addiction issues for 30 years. I have worked with a variety of populations including people with grief issues, HIV and AIDS, dual diagnosis (addiction with a mental health disorder), couples, bipolar disorder, anxiety, depression and PTSD. I have experience in both inpatient and outpatient settings. I currently have a private practice in Meridian Texas. I practice exclusively online. I provide Christian counseling if you ask for it. My practice is all inclusive regardless of what you spiritual belief is or is not. I am trained in the stages of change and motivational interviewing techniques. I am certified to teach Developing Capable Young People, a course developed by the late Stephen Glen for caregivers of young people. "My goal for clients is to establish an alliance using love, acceptance, and support. "My hope is that client's can take something with them from each session that they can apply to their daily lives". My office hours are 10am-7pm Mon.-Fri. 10am-5pm on Thursday and 10am-7pm on Fridays. I will have Satuday appointments periodically. Just a word about the no show policy I have. If you are going to miss an appointment for a live chat or video session please give me 48 hours notice. I believe in providing compassion, love, and support to my clients. Please make note that I do not provide counseling on demand. So if you send me a message in the middle of my night. I will respond to your post within 48 hours. I respond to all posts within that time frame ________________________________________ SPECIALTIES • Stress, Anxiety • Addictions • Anger management • Self esteem • Depression
What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?
I will introduce myself and say somethings about how I do therapy. If it is appropriate I use my sense of humor. Mostly I want creat a sense of love and respect. If this is their first time to have therapy I go over with them what therapy is and how they can benefit. I explain to the person who is new what an assessment and treatment plan are.
Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.
My uniqueness comes from having good intuition and able to get to the root of their issue in s fairly timely manner. Also I have lived a lot of life.
