I focus on providing a therapeutic environment for client to share concerns and facilitate growth. Most importantly I seek to develop a strong therapeutic relationship by providing genuineness, unconditional positive regard, and empathy. Overall, my goal is helping clients become aware of their ability to grow and heal.

During my training in play therapy, I have worked with many children experiencing behavioral problems, divorce, depression, anxiety, grief, abuse, adoption, relational problems with peers and siblings, academic issues, trauma, developmental delays, aggression, abandonment, and disruptive behavior.
As a parent, it can be difficult to know what to do when your child or adolescent is experiencing emotional or behavioral difficulties. You may often feel helpless and isolated. I can help. I have had extensive training in the field of play therapy, a developmentally appropriate approach to working with children struggling with a variety of issues. Throughout this process, your child will experience a warm, safe, and accepting environment where these issues can be worked out. I will also work to help you understand your child more and provide you with ways to feel more empowered.

A relationship seldom gets better on its own, but we often “hope” that it will. Don’t wait until you loose hope to seek relationship counseling, or counseling for any other issues you may be facing. The longer you wait, the more difficult each day can become. Self-help books often generalize, and medication often fails to deal with the cause of the imbalance. With counseling, I provide a personalized examination of your issues so that you may learn how to overcome them and create a life of relationships and experiences that you will greet with great enthusiasm.

Clients want to understand their relationships, feel equipped to handle life's stressors and learn how to gain the tools they need to live a functional life. The ideal client is the one who is trying to make amends with past decisions, understand the ebb and flow of setting boundaries, sit through the heavy emotions of grief and loss, and manage the invasive thoughts of doubt, insecurities, fear, or uncertainties. They want to overcome shame, guilt, and despair. Parents want to relate with others who struggle with parenting. Couples want to know if their relationship is repairable.

The path of progress comes from collaboration in an atmosphere of cooperation, education, and insight. Whether our stress is around our internal needs, people close to us, or with the state of the world, the counseling relationship is about accessing and utilizing your innate ability to learn and grow from where you are into the better life you seek. Covid-19 has disrupted nearly all our connections with friends, family, work, and community. This has brought out the unfulfilled need for connection in relationships already stressful, and has inspired people to find creative ways of strengthening connection.

In working with young children, I use Child-Centered Play Therapy, and integrate skills from EMDR and IFS to build emotional regulation.
In therapy, I enjoy helping kids and adults try a new approach of care and healing that targets both emotional processing and regulating the nervous system. I partner with parents to help their child improve anxiety, process life transitions, and overcome various behavioral issues. With adults, I help with trauma healing, anxiety, and relational roadblocks such as people-pleasing, social anxiety and codependency. Other areas I focus on include family of origin issues, OCD, and abuse recovery. I've also had the unique opportunity to help families find their new normal after life-altering tragedies.

Child Therapists
Child psychologists in Addison, TX provide mental health therapy to children and are experts in child development.

Every comprehensive review of therapy with children shows that all credible approaches, when performed by a competent mental health clinician, produce almost the same results. About half of all kids will get better. Of those that improve, 80% will show progress in a relatively short time, while the remaining 20% will need longer-term support.

The best child therapists in Addison build great relationships with the child and the parent. They also see the child's strengths and are open to hearing the child's possible solutions to the challenges the child faces. Finally, a good therapist appreciates the child's culture and is sensitive to the values of the child's community.
