Levelland, TX 79336 (Online Only)
My ideal client is someone who is experiencing struggles with their thoughts, feelings or behavior. The client may feel out of control and hopeless. Maybe they just need to be heard! I have helped people with serious mental illness achieve stability and grow. I have assisted people with less serious problems and I understand all issues we bring to therapy are important. I can relate to those who experience anxiety, depression, PTSD or relationship issues. Whether you are trying to get your life back together, or if you are simply seeking emotional growth, I believe I can be of service. Most of all, I believe there is hope.

Maybe you're not sure when or why, but the emotional burdens you have been carrying became heavier. You've been carrying that pain for a while, hoping you could deal with it by yourself. But now, there's also worry, anger, shame, frustration, grief or exhaustion that you struggle to understand and cope with. Maybe you've started wondering if you're anxious or depressed. You thought about talking to someone, but worried that no one would understand, and maybe even judge you.

I believe that through counseling we can find value in ourselves, our adverse experiences, our mistakes, and even in the thoughts and feelings that can be difficult to share. We all reach a point in our life where we need change. I believe that in finding the value in all things and through self-discovery, we can promote change and begin to step into the life we wish to live.

Solution Focused Brief (SFBT) Therapists
How does solution-focused therapy work?
The treatment works by helping a client notice which behaviors and thoughts have positive results on their lives and building a plan around how to maximise these strengths. Practitioners of solution-focused brief therapy (SFBT) believe that individuals already have the experience, wisdom, and resilience to create change in their lives, but may need a guide to help them realise which changes to make and how to make them.
Is solution-focused brief therapy evidence-based?
Yes. Solution-focused brief therapy has been extensively studied, and researchers find strong evidence that it’s an effective treatment for many behavioral and psychological concerns. This may be due to the uplifting nature and practicality of the treatment, which allows patients to employ strategies to reach their goals that are incremental and achievable.
How long does solution-focused brief therapy last?
Solution-focused brief therapy, as the name implies, is brief. The timeline may vary from person to person, given the challenges they face and their situation in life, but treatment is typically complete within four to eight sessions. This therapy type is a pragmatic one: it’s concerned more with “how” problems can be addressed and improved than getting to the root of “why” they exist in the first place.
Is solution-focused brief therapy a type of cognitive behavioral therapy?
Solution-focused brief therapy is related to cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT)in that both are pragmatic approaches that deal less with gaining a full understanding of the cause of a mental health problem and more with creating plans for how to cope with these problems and improve an individual’s day-to-day life. They are distinct, however, in that SFBT emphasises building on strengths and resources, while CBT focuses on changing negative thoughts and behaviors.
