My approach is all about empowering you to see your life from a fresh perspective so you can find the way forward. My goal is to partner with you to unearth new choices you might not have considered and embrace your strengths. For me, the most rewarding part of being a therapist is helping someone move in their journey from struggling to thriving. Sessions involve lots of feedback, encouragement, and focus on what you're doing right.
My experience includes providing counseling and social services in rural community behavioral health settings and schools for over 20 years. I have been in private practice as a therapist in Texas since 2012.
You are the author of your story, the expert on your life, and the creator of your goals and dreams. Let’s find a way to create change, together.
