Navigating the complexities of a relationship is never easy, especially when dealing with cultural differences, infidelity, or ongoing conflicts. I am here to offer compassionate and effective support through these challenging times. My goal is to help you, and your partner not just survive but thrive, rediscovering the strength and connection that brought you together in the first place. I specialize in working with culturally diverse couples, understanding that each relationship is uniquely shaped by its cultural context. In addition to couples therapy, I offer individual therapy to support personal growth.

Life is challenging and at times can be overwhelming. The need to have two Income families, shuttling kids to school then to activities such as sporting events, dance practice and band practice is very daunting to say the least. Sometimes people turn to substance abuse, and other unhealthy behaviors which then become a problem rather then a solution. This affects all family members. The real solution lies within each of us. My work is to help you ferret out that solution. Unhealed traumas and complex emotions needing to be untangled ware us down. Help is available. call or email me.

I work with 30+ couples who lead busy professional lives and feel disconnected and estranged from each other, which has led to mounting resentment and increasing misunderstandings and bickering in their home. Using emotionally focused therapy, I focus on their attachment history and style in order to identify their attachment wounds. This approach allows us to create a focused plan of treatment where each partner feels safe according to their needs and is able to be vulnerable with one another and communicate their needs in a way that increases the understanding and intimacy they each crave.

I am accepting new clients! I am passionate about counseling because I love seeing clients find hope and relief and realize their own strength and resiliency. My desire is to create an accepting, warm environment where clients can feel safe to be themselves and work on their personal struggles without feelings of shame or guilt. I enjoy working with adults, couples, & teens who are struggling with their relationships, communication, connection, confidence, grief, overthinking, and everyday struggles.

Are you having conflicts in your relationships? Does your past prevent you from living a fulling life or having healthy/secure relationships? Are you a new mom and struggling to connect with your baby, feel the societal pressure that this should be the most joyous time of your life? If you answered yes, we sound like we would work well together. I am committed to providing a nurturing, emotionally focused, and holistic approach to therapy. I work with people on developing self-compassion and strength to process emotions, and to become aware of self-destructive patterns/beliefs that hinder you from living life vibrantly.

Through guidance and understanding individuals can improve their mental health and relationships. To assist clients in reaching their treatment goals, I use a variety of evidence-based practices with an emphasis on emotionally focused therapy (EFT), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and Mindfulness. We'll work together to set goals for treatment and decide the best ways to make progress toward those goals based on your individual style and preference.

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor with a Master of Arts In Counseling. I am a full time private practitioner currently serving adults between the ages of 30-82 in the DFW area. My counseling skills include, but are not limited to: leading psyco-educational lectures for individuals and families impacted by addiction, facilitating groups for women impacted by betrayal, individuals, couples with emotional connection and communication difficulties, support with grief and loss...of a significant other, health crisis in the family and care-taking for the caregiver.

As a therapist for many years, I have found two approaches to couples therapy to stand out: Imago Relationship Therapy and Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT). Imago, described in the NY Times best-selling, Getting the Love You Want, (Dr. Harville Hendrix), teaches a simple yet powerful communication tool that is ideal for anyone wishing to learn effective communication. EFT is superb for helping couples move past their own and their partner's frustrations into their deeper longings for connection. Combined, these two methodologies have proven to be the most powerful approach I know for couples in any stage of relationship.

While my therapeutic style calls upon several well established and effective counseling approaches, my main focus is on interpersonal relationships. My passion is to guide my clients on a journey to discover inner strengths and to develop positive patterns of interaction. I am a professional counselor and a marriage and family therapist that loves working with families. All aspects of family life and members of the family (individuals, couples, single parents, entire families, and blended families) are of interest to me. I know that what affects one person in the family affects all members of the family.

I work with adults (21+) whose presenting concerns are most often related to anxiety, depression, grief, spirituality, "religious deconstruction," "purity culture," "religious reconstruction," sexuality, and relationships. My guiding therapeutic modalities are attachment-focused and trauma-informed (advanced training in Somatic Experiencing). I am also trained in ACT, Emotionally Focused Therapy (and EFIT), and the Gottman Method for couples. My practice is open to people of every religious tradition and people with no religious affiliation. I welcome married and unmarried couples into couple therapy.

I specialize in working with adolescents and adults who are struggling with anxiety, depression, social anxiety, low self-esteem, trauma, work stress, friendship struggles, or dating/relationship struggles. I have such a heart for working with these issues! I, myself, have struggled with anxiety, and I am so passionate about helping clients navigate that challenge. I have seen countless times the powerful change that can happen in clients’ lives after working through these struggles, and I would love to work with you on beginning a new chapter of life that is full of confidence, growth, and positive change.

My approach to therapy is genuine, mindful, and emotionally-focused. I believe that it is often not enough to challenge only negative thoughts. Thoughts are only one piece of the puzzle. We are complex human beings and our emotions are complex too! I strive to guide my clients to have a deeper understanding of who they are and who they want to become. We have all encountered different life paths all with their own particular obstacles and we all have obstacles we are yet to face. I want to empower my clients to build the resiliency necessary to face these challenges with open arms.

Our goal is to help you reach your goals and to get you to see your life from all angles.

We will give you helpful coping tools and guide you in the direction of cultivating the life, success, and relationships that you deserve.
