Therapists in Texas

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with over 10 years of experience. I am an Army veteran and have spent a lot of time working with soldiers and their family members. Both of my parents served, so I understand the unique dynamics of the military family. Additionally, I have counseled a wide range of clients with issues that range from anxiety, depression, grief and loss, goal setting, relationship issues, crisis situations and much more. I have also conducted PTSD and Caregiver Support Groups. My counseling style is to start where you are and allow you the client to be treated with the respect that you deserve. I utilize Motivational Interviewing, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Crisis Intervention and other therapy modalities when working with clients. I like to use an eclectic approach and tailor the modality that works best for each individual client or family as we are all beautifully and uniquely created. It is a huge step to go into counseling, so I commend you for your bravery. I am here to support you along the way.

If you’re feeling stuck in painful patterns—overwhelmed by self-doubt, emotional overload, or strained relationships—I offer a way forward. Together, we will break the cycle by identifying core negative beliefs, healing the impacts of abuse and manipulation, and creating lasting change. Using EMDR, somatic therapy, and mindfulness, I’ll help you rewire the old scripts keeping you trapped—turning “I’m not enough” into “I am worthy and capable.” You’ll learn how to release stress and tension stored in your body, develop emotional resilience, and step into a more grounded, confident version of yourself. This process isn’t just about healing wounds; it’s about reclaiming your power, rewriting your story, and living with clarity and connection. You won’t walk this path alone. Through our work, you’ll experience deep support, a space where you are truly seen and heard, and the tools to navigate life with greater ease. You’ll gain not just relief from emotional pain, but the freedom to live a life that aligns with who you truly are—unapologetically and with confidence. Transformation is possible. The weight of the past doesn’t have to define you. Let’s take this journey together.

As a culturally- sensitive person and counselor, I strive to build relationships where my clients feel connected and fully accepted in a safe and compassionate environment.

Welcome to a journey of self-discovery and healing! I believe that the mind, body, and spirit must work together for us to become our best and most beautiful selves. Sometimes life’s journey can feel like one obstacle after another. We will challenge self-defeating beliefs, unhealthy addictions, and self-defeating patterns of behavior.

By employing evidence based therapeutic approaches and intervention strategies, my goal is for my clients to become the very best version of themselves!

As a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist nearing 20 years’ experience, I work with a foundation of Solution Focus and Systemic Therapy. I’m often looking for "the funny" in the moment and the world around me. I greatly enjoy sarcasm, snark, and satire. I'm fairly casual but have been told I "Clean up well", and clients have told me in the past they appreciate that I do not come across as "stuffy". I'm often daydreaming of going on cruises with my wife and occasionally think about bringing our children as well. I treasure a long nap in a hammock, and I love movie. Once upon a time I even submitted a short film to the Cannes Film Festival (wasn't selected) but I did enter. Prior to being a therapist, I found myself listening and caring, as people would end up just talking to me and telling me their life story. I decided I should put that to good use. Additionally, growing up my family was fortunate to be able to adopt and quickly we became a larger family that could not remember when my sister was not part of the family. Through the process, I realized how important family and relationships. I appreciate and look forward to the chance to help others get through the rough patches, when life hits hard. When the answer is not easily found, we take time to look at all the options and find something, at least one step towards better. We're not looking for perfection, just looking for progress, a little bit here and there.

Through gentle conversation and thoughtful questions, I help you uncover patterns, challenge unhelpful beliefs, and reconnect with your strengths. We’ll explore what’s working, what’s not, and how you can begin to shift toward a version of life that feels more honest, meaningful, and sustainable. Therapy doesn’t have to feel clinical or intimidating. It can feel like exhaling. Like clarity. Like finally hearing your own voice again. I look forward to meeting you.

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor with the state of Texas, USA. I have training and experience in counseling for over 8 years.
