I have specialized training in cognitive behavioral therapy across several specific areas such as weight loss management, domestic abuse, trauma and depression.
I am best able to help people who are seeking to recover from life experiences that have caused hurt, relationship and work problems and a decline in personal growth. Persons seeking recovery from a problematic past of drug or alcohol use, obesity, chronic disease, trauma, relationship problems, domestic violence, child protective services involvement, self destructive behavior, grief and loss or situational stress would be an ideal client to work with. I work best with clients who are curious about how to manage complex problems, curious about change and interested in investing in themselves, their children or family.

I have worked with children, adolescents, adults, couples and families in a variety of settings which include a clinic for the severely mentally ill, the City of Houston health department, a substance abuse rehabilitation center and a private practice.
For many, deciding to meet with a therapist is a big decision. Often times it is seen as a last resort. Talking to family and friends is not always the preferred way of dealing with a situation and that is when talking to a professional is something to consider. I have experience working with depression, anxiety, personality disorders, mood disorders, grief, PTSD, family dynamic problems, couples, parent-child relationships and more. I strive to help my clients learn the skills to work with whatever life throws at them.

You avoid being around family members because they didn’t protect you the way they were supposed to when you were a child. The emotional and physical abuse weigh so heavy, that you carry the baggage every day. Maybe you were abandoned or neglected by your parents and were responsible for raising yourself and your siblings. Now, you’re an adult…and you are struggling in your intimate, social, and work relationships because of the trauma you’ve experienced. Do you find yourself in a toxic/abusive situation that reminds you of what you witnessed at a younger age? Uncertain how to resolve conflict? Maybe the fear of abandonment?

I work best with adolescents and adults who are seeking to find their voice and speak their truth, desire a deeper connection with their identities and values, want to learn how to express themselves in ways that help them feel better understood by their loved ones, are interested in becoming more attuned to their mind, body, senses, and emotions, have experienced interpersonal violence within their relationships (partners, friends, or family), want to explore how childhood, generational, and systemic trauma shape their current narratives, and who struggle with building everyday routines that support them in achieving their goals.

Enjoying third career immensely since 1984 (former Kindergarten teacher, restauranteur). I am particularly delighted to have been trained initially in psychoanalysis and behavior modification, then later systemically and eclectically - by focusing on a person's strengths more than their weaknesses ("mental illness") we can more likely find (a) satisfactory solution(s). Main strengths - marital (relationships), drug/alcohol, emotional, (depression, anxiety, etc), life problems (school, career, bereavement, etc.), kids (behavior, discipline, school problems, etc.). I am also an SAP (Substance Abuse Professional) DOT certified

Do anxiety, generation trauma ("what happens at home stays home" and never resolved), sexual abuse, addiction and insecurities run your life more than your values and dreams? Do you relive the past as if it were happening right now? Your head knows better, but it fails to convince your heart otherwise. As challenging as those experiences were for the past, they continue to zap away your joy and confidence today. You might even avoid situations that trigger the feelings.
