When I learned to see myself the way GOD views all of us, WORTHY, I was able to overcome many life challenges that seemed almost impossible at times. I am passionate about supporting my clients in finding their unique and individual path to healing without judgment. For over 20 + years I have counted it both a joy and a privilege to share my GOD given gift of connecting with families, couples, adults, teens and adolescents who may be experiencing; life crisis, traumatic experiences, grief, negative thinking patterns, an inability to cope with daily life demands, mental illness, Intellectual and Developmental Disabilities or simply seeking a clearer vision of personal goals/growth. I have worked as a Clinician for the last 7 years. I am grateful for the exchange that takes place within the therapeutic process as it helps me to continuously grow and evolve as a Clinician. Roman 8:28 is one of my favorite scriptures as it teaches that “All things work together for good for those who love the LORD and are called according to his purpose”. I consider this scripture, in addition to an eclectic approach to therapy to enhance individualized treatment. Therapeutic Approaches used include Cognitive Behavior Therapy (CBT) , Solution Focused Therapy, Family Systems Therapy, Strengths-Based Perspective and the Resiliency Theory and Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing Therapy (EMDR). I genuinely believe that at the core of every human being there is a strength and beauty that is capable of overcoming every difficult and challenging life experience. I earned my Bachelor’s degree in Social Work from the University of Houston- Clearlake and my Master’s of Social Work from the University of Houston Graduate College of Social. My professional experience in working with families and children is extensive and includes:
