Hello, I’m excited you found me. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor-Supervisor in the great state of Texas offering many years of education and counseling experience in different settings including individual sessions, homeless shelters, church settings, and community outreach. Are you currently struggling with anxiety (often masked as stress), trauma, or even identity issues? Are you trying to navigate these areas of your life alone, because you feel no one truly understands what you are going through? You have been trying to navigate these areas in your life the best that you know how. However, you are growing tired and desire to try something different. I have worked with many who have felt the same as you. I hear you and I do understand. I would be honored to walk alongside you, while you are on your healing journey to becoming a better you. If you have ever wondered if therapy was for you? I’d say, yes, therapy is for you if you find yourself struggling to make decisions. Don’t know rather you are coming or going. Unsure about who you are currently. You are struggling to find peace. The provider will send a video link prior to the session.

Hello, I am a clinical psychologist who has been in practice sine 1999. I work with a general adult population, with my main focus being on PTSD, depression and anxiety. During the early stages of my career, I performed extensive psychological and neuropsychological testing. This helped me to understand the general workings of the brain and how important it is to utilize this knowledge in my therapy. I have found that helping my clients understand that mental illness is not "just in my head" or something I need to "get over' has been so very beneficial in people healing and taking control of their lives. I hope to have the opportunity to help you heal and make positive changes in your life.

At the Child & Adult Behavior Center, we help both adults and children, as well as parents. For adults, we help you find ways to cope with stress, anxiety, loss and depression. Not only talking through and understanding, but also concrete "what to do about it" coping skills, lead to calmer, more stable emotions and relationships. We find cognitive behavioral therapy very useful, and within that, learning the skills of mindfulness, a form of in-the-moment meditative thinking, to calm and focus the mind when emotions overtake. This fosters a new way of viewing and handling stressful situations as they arise. For children's therapy, we work with you, and with your child. Parents' feedback is a critical part of helping children feel and do better. We help you with parent-child interactions to find your way as you navigate the seas of child behavior. Our specializations are the treatment for Aspergers/autism, ADHD, Oppositional Defiance, Obsessive Compulsive Disorder, emotional self regulation, the behavioral and emotional aspects of sensory issues, anxiety and depression. Our special programs also treat a wide range of neuroatypical, developmentally challenged children. Neuro-typical parent-child relationships, family relations, and parenting issues for all children and teens are also our focus. We help - you help your child - with ideas and techniques to put into action. Ideas that can greatly reduce the stress and storm of being a parent in the trenches. Peace in the home is possible!

Welcome and thank you for considering me as your therapist. I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with over 14 years of experience in hospitals, college counseling centers, adoption agencies, and elder care homes. For the past 4 years, I’ve been additionally working in private practice, where I support adults in navigating life’s challenges and moving toward more fulfillment. My style is warm, kind, and empathic. I listen not only to your words but also to the underlying feelings and patterns, bringing attention to what might be overlooked so we can explore it together. My goal is to understand your lived experience and help you discover new perspectives, tools, and possibilities for change. Please note: -While I have extensive experience supporting adults with ADD/ADHD, I do not provide formal diagnoses or prescribe medication. -I do not provide Emotional Support Animal (ESA) letters, as this is outside my clinical scope of practice.

I witness people in their present predicaments and tell them what I see and feel. Acknowledgement of pain, a counterintuitive process, is the secret sauce of ordering our lives into functional, fun, and life-affirming behaviors. The process of emotional healing takes time, dedication, and practice. Willingness to feel what has been unfelt and to voice what has been unsaid will help you see positive changes in your life.

Are you searching for someone to listen to you? For many years, I have heard over and over, “Thank you, I have just been wanting someone to listen to me”. I have always felt led to just sit and listen when someone opens up and spills their heart to me. I have been a licensed social worker for 30 years, working with clients in healthcare settings and case management. I have also been a licensed professional counselor for the last 5 years. I have worked with the senior population in skilled, nursing, private homes, and inpatient physical rehabilitation for 30 years. This brought me to not only work directly with the senior population, but also their family members to provide the love and support needed to get through life's challenges and circumstances. I have gained experience in helping work through stress, anxiety, depression, family dynamics, job loss, marital problems, physical limitations, and/or disabilities, as well as long-term life-altering situations. These situations brought me to work with adults of all ages due to the circumstances affecting relationships with family and friends. I am a wife, a mother of two young adult children, a mother-in-law, a sister, and a daughter myself. I understand and know how family dynamics affect an individual’s physical and emotional health in all aspects of their daily lives. I am trauma-informed. I understand and realize that traumatic events (no matter when they happened in life) can follow us down the road when we don't even realize it is happening. Once a client is educated regarding how trauma affects brain function, they are more able to realize the power they have to make positive change in their lives, where before they may have felt stuck or powerless.

Greetings, I'm a Licensed Professional Counsellor (LPC) based in Texas. I received my Masters from the University of North Texas and have been practicing for 19 years. Transitioning through life changes can be challenging, and having a therapist assist you through these transitions can be incredibly beneficial. Therapists can provide support, guidance, and tools to help navigate changes in relationships, careers, health, or any other aspect of life. They can help you explore your feelings, identify patterns or obstacles, and develop coping strategies to manage stress and uncertainty. Additionally, therapists can offer a safe and non-judgmental space for you to express yourself and work through any concerns or fears you may have about the transition process.
