ADHD Therapists in Allen, TX

Whether you are at the dinner table with your family, sitting next to your partner on the couch, or in an office full of coworkers, feeling unnoticed and unheard is a painful experience. Our relationships should be a source of empowerment, safety, and comfort. Not a source of chronic anxiety, stress, and grief. Whether it is the relationship you have with yourself, your spouse, partner, child, parent, or co-parent you are looking to heal and improve, with some fine tuning, we can build upon the skills and strengths you already have to create more meaningful and positive interactions in your everyday life and relationships.

Counseling is supposed to be convenient, effective and helpful. Through evidenced based approaches like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Solution Focused Therapy, and DBT, we are able to process trauma, explore and establish coping skills, and slowly but surely, start living again. I've worked in the nonprofit sector helping victims of domestic violence as well as other issues to include addiction, personality disorders, and family conflict. I work with the LGBTQ community and take pride in working with multicultural clients.

So many of us are considered "put together" while we hide the pain inside. Your feelings are valid, and your healing journey is important. I specialize in healing from trauma, enhancing self-esteem, and mending relationships using EMDR, IFS, EFT, Polyvagal Theory, mindfulness, somatic work, and creative expression. I guide you in increasing confidence, fostering healthy relationships, and cultivating a positive self-view. Together, we'll use the power of the mind and imagination to restructure neural networks through neuroplasticity for lasting well-being.

Are you or your child hurting from a traumatic or an anxiety producing situation? I can help you and/or your child move past disturbing memories or current difficult situations.

EMDR can help heal childhood trauma, sexual assault, domestic violence trauma, fear of flying, heights, water, etc., birth trauma, work burnout, grief, OCD, eating disorders, addictions.

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor in the state of Texas, and I received my Master’s degree in Rehabilitation Counseling from UT Southwestern, graduating in 2016. I have experience as a crisis counselor for the community helping children, teens, and adults experiencing suicidal/homicidal ideation. In private practice, I assist individuals suffering from a variety of mental health concerns including depression, anxiety, PTSD, life adjustment issues, personality disorders, and various family issues.

I am passionate about empowering people while they discover their authentic self. Becoming closer to our authentic self is what allows people to break generational curses, process trauma, learn life lessons, and heal. My goal is to provide a safe space where a person can feel seen, heard, and understood.

Others may think you have it together, but on the inside, you’re falling apart. It feels like you can’t keep up with life’s changes and it’s just hard to ask for help! Life feels out of control. You to feel lost, overwhelmed, unfulfilled, tired, and stuck. You are not alone! With therapy, you can recognize, navigate, and decrease distress. Asking for help can be a difficult, but a necessary start toward your healthy mental well-being.

I believe that each and every person is a unique and beautiful individual, created by God, and designed to be in meaningful and healthy relationships. If you are struggling in your relationship with your child, parent, partner, or another significant person in your life, I would love to help you.
