Are you feeling anxious and overwhelmed? Do you wonder where your energy has gone? Is it difficult to make decisions or plan for future goals? Are your relationships suffering? I work with clients every day who answer yes to these questions. They are anxious and overwhelmed. They are living with grief and sadness. They struggle with relationships (parenting, marriage, partners, friendships, work). Some live with chronic pain; many are burned out.

Change is hard, but worth it. Clients can expect an empathic and caring, but no-nonsense, approach to tackling issues. I specialize in Military/Veteran issues, anxiety and trauma treatment to clients residing anywhere in TX, NC & AK. No travel required! I provide a non-judgmental atmosphere that enables frank, honest discussions that promote change. I have a good history with clients seeking out initial care as well as those who have been unsuccessful with other therapists. I do not accept insurance, as I believe care should be authentic and person-centered without coding or billing guidelines dictating care.

My approach to counseling is to use existentialism to assist the client in reaching their journey with the accountability and acceptance that they are unique and powerful. By using a collaboration of tools, the individual and myself are able to discover a pathway that requires hard work, but freedom in knowing that each step is celebrated. I value my client's journey as it is what has created their character, it is my desire to assist them to live life with purpose using their journey to succeed.

First and foremost, I want to help you create a space for exploration and healing. We will do that by working together to build a partnership that is as unique as you are. People tend to look into counseling when life events feel overwhelming, difficult to navigate, and stressful. I am here to really listen and I want to understand what you’re facing. Much of who we are as people is directly related to the relationship between ourselves and our emotions. I firmly believe that we each hold the unique power to grow and solve issues inside ourselves. Healing takes curiosity and intention.

If you are like many of my clients, you’ve been through a lot; you've fought to get to this point in life, are driven, and consider yourself a hard-earned-version of personal success in continuous process. Having already done a lot of personal work on yourself, you’ve begun to realize there are some things that you thought you dealt with and put to bed, but for some reason they have started popping up again. You may have an established meditation or self care practice and are noticing some new emotional static. Your established skills don’t seem to be doing the trick and you need help navigating how to move forward.
