I began my counseling journey as an adolescent, and eventually became a school counselor over a decade ago working with elementary to high school aged kids. I quickly learned that school counselors are not able to equip their students with necessary tools and as a result I began to pursue my LPC. As a fully licensed therapist in Texas I value the trust my clients instill in me and together we work to address any and all client concerns to allow them to live their best life.
In the first session we will get to know each other. The most important piece of the initial session is to determine if you have a connection with your therapist. If I am not the best fit for you, I will work hard to find someone that best fits your needs
I think what sets me apart is the fact that I am my authentic self in session. I am quirky. I speak with my hands. Yet I also know when to sit in silence and share in difficult experiences. I know when to challenge and when to empathize.
My ideal client is one who is open and willing to begin the process of therapy. Initiating the process is truly the hardest part. Join me as we begin the journey to a happier, healthier and better you!
I believe that our thoughts impact our actions and feelings. When we are able to reframe our thoughts, we are able to see positive changes in our life. In session we will challenge negative thought patterns, identify their root, and work to reframe.
