I am a Licensed Professional Counselor in the state of Texas. I specialize in working with individuals of all ages. I have found that online therapy for adults is effective, convenient and the post pandemic way to obtain therapy. I am solution focused and I practice the client centered approach theory. My background is in secondary education and school counseling, for 27 years. I have had my counseling license for 12 years. I am currently a part-time, private counselor, using online with adult clients and in person, for youth, through non-profit, school programs. I earned an A.A. in Historical Studies from San Jacinto College, Central Campus, La Porte, Texas, June of 1991. I earned my B.A. in Secondary Social Studies from the University of Houston, Clearlake Campus, in Houston, Texas in June of 1994. And I earned my M.Ed. from University of Texas State in San Marcos, in December of 2010. I later added my license in Professional Counseling, in April of 2011. I am interested in the ways trauma impacts the individual and plan to be trained in EMDR, within the year. I am empathetic to the challenge that real life experiences bring and the need to heal and evolve from the times in our lives when we have lived predominately in our shadow side. I am a non-judgmental listener; I help my clients process their hurt and I inspire them to move towards best version of themselves. I find the key components to a therapeutic relationship between the counselor and the client is the foundation of trust, honesty, transparency and non-judgmental listening and reflection. I believe that everyone has a purpose, life lessons that they work through and opportunities to heal, transform and evolve emotionally, spiritually and mentally.

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

Initial Sessions are usually a history gathering opportunity and goal setting session. I like to work on the client's immediate needs and prefer the session to naturally go where it needs to. This is your therapy and you should use it to process and work on goals that are important to you. I may give resources to read or listen to that are pertinent to the subject we are working on.

What treatment methods and tools do you utilize?

In addition to talk therapy, I also use a variety of healing tools; Emotional Freedom Technique, AKA tapping, meditations, journaling, podcast and book recommendations, forgiveness exercises, mirror and breath work.

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

My biggest strength as a therapist is by ability to listen and express well. I have the ability to hold presence during difficult discussions that may be difficult to share. I am empathetic and am able to listen without judgement. I listen with acceptance and understanding. I do my very best to provide a safe, neutral space to release your pain and find your way back to healing.
