Hi! I am an LPC based in Texas. As an LPC, I am your ally on a transformative journey. Together, we navigate the complexities of anxiety, spirituality, self-esteem, and life transitions fostering resilience and self-love. Whether we're untangling the threads of anxiety, exploring the depths of spirituality, or cultivating a positive sense of self, my role is to provide unwavering support.

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

In our initial session, we'll discuss the goals and expectations for our time together, and I'll provide an overview of the therapeutic process. I'll ask about your personal history, challenges, and what led you to seek support.

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

I consider my greatest strengths to be empathy, and a genuine commitment to understanding your unique experiences. I strive to create a safe and non-judgmental space where you can openly express yourself.

Describe the client(s) you are best positioned to serve.

I specialize in guiding young adults navigating the maze of life transitions, helping them make sense of their newfound realities. If you're a young adult in the midst of significant changes, dealing with anxiety, depression, problems in your relationships, or exploring your identity, I am here to offer support. Together, we'll navigate the challenges of this transformative phase. My goal is to empower you to not only cope with change but to thrive and build a resilient foundation for your evolving journey.

My treatment methods

Strength-Based

I view strengths as the colors in a person's canvas of life. This process is like discovering the rich palette of capabilities that has always been present but may have gone unnoticed. The strengths-based approach allows us to co-create a canvas of empowerment and self-discovery, one brushstroke at a time.

Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)

In my professional practice, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) has emerged as a powerful tool that serves for navigating the challenges individuals face in their thoughts and behaviors. I help my clients understand and reevaluate their patterns of thinking. By identifying and addressing these patterns, individuals can develop practical skills and coping mechanisms, enabling them to approach situations more effectively. CBT provides a structured and solution-focused approach to understanding and modifying whatever is not serving the person.

Solution Focused Brief Treatment

I see it as an approach that recognizes the power of seemingly minor shifts, like a pebble creating ripples in a pond. SFBT emphasizes identifying and amplifying these small, meaningful changes, understanding that they can set off a cascade of positive effects. It's like acknowledging that the smallest adjustment in perspective or behavior can create a ripple effect. By focusing on these incremental changes, clients often realize that even the tiniest adjustments can lead to significant improvements in their overall well-being.
