I'm a Licensed Professional Counselor in Texas with over 15 years of experience and a strong background helping adolescents and adult clients overcome personal challenges and cope with triggering situations. I have been a supervisor to LPC-Associates for over 13 years. I have worked extensively with psychotherapy services, crisis intervention, and psychological assessments. Expertise in PTSD and other trauma related disorders, anxiety, and relationship issues. All services are performed with respect and understanding of professional rules of ethics.
What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?
In our first session, we'll learn a little about each other. What do you want to achieve through therapy? What have you done in the past? I'll tell you what you can expect both from me and from our work together. We'll make a plan, together, to work on your needs.
Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.
I've worked in both the private and public sector with clients of all demographics. Though the names, ages and faces have changed, they have remained the same in their desire to overcome their obstacles and live their most fulfilling lives. No two people are alike so, I've learned many tools to help us find the right path for you.

VirtualMy treatment methods
Person-centered (Rogerian)
I believe in supporting the strength, positivity, and ability of my clients to work towards the goals most beneficial to them. All the modalities I employ begin with a respectful partnership.
Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)
Learning better ways to cope with psychological problems helps the client become less reliant on the therapist and more self-reliant. CBT is prominent in my practice when dealing with anxiety disorders, depression, relational problems and trauma.
Existential
We all face struggles with and in life. Fostering authenticity, creativity and a recognition of positive values can be effective in working with anxiety, apathy, grief and many other negative emotions.
