Domestic Abuse Therapists in Benbrook, TX

To me, a large part of therapy is about grieving, acceptance, and peace within ourselves and others; I am particularly good at helping people get in touch with their feelings. I tend to work with the heavier side of therapy, that include drug/ alcohol /cannabis addiction, domestic violence, narcissism, borderline, sex/porn addiction, sex offense, sexual shame, couples working through sobriety-recovery dynamics, infidelity, poly relationships, court, and anger management. I tend to work really well with those who enjoy dark humor, who are avoidant by nature, and those who are seeking redemption from guilt/shame.

I believe that at sometime in our lives we are all faced with challenges that are difficult to overcome independently. Finding the right therapist to assist in one's emotional health is just as important as finding the right doctor to improve one's physical health.

Now Accepting New Clients There are times when life can just be a struggle. Taking the first step can many times be the hardest. I am dedicated to providing my clients with a safe environment and the support needed to begin the process of healing. Therapy requires trust, and the relationship that emerges between us will hopefully be significant and meaningful in your life. My ultimate goal with each client is to enhance self awareness and empower each individual.

I work with clients that experience anxiety and depression, clients that have lived through a trauma and clients that have experienced abuse. I have experience working with individuals that have a history of unhealthy, toxic or abusive relationships (not just romantic relationships). I also have a history of working with individuals going through or contemplating going through a divorce. As a trauma focused counselor, I have worked with many different humans that have experienced many different traumas. While we work together, all facets of your identity will be acknowledged, appreciated, and valued.

Hello, It takes courage to speak with a therapist, so I commend you for taking this first step to look for help. I provide a safe, non-judgmental, supportive, genuine and warm space for you to seek and get the help that you need in therapy. I am trained in cognitive and behavioral therapy, but I take an eclectic approach to helping my patients. What this means is that I believe there is not a "one size fits all" way to provide therapy. A skilled therapist should adapt the therapy they provide to each client's individual needs.

If there is one thing that I’ve learned in my more than ten years working as a therapist, it would be that life can be rough no matter who you are. And sometimes rough in ways you never thought it could be. What do YOU do when those rough times come? Not sure? Or have the ways you thought would fix things not worked? I work with individuals and couples feeling lost or unsure of what to do or where to turn when they have these rough times. I have been through times in life when I feel this way and love working with people to help find the best ways for them to deal with whatever rough patch, big or small, they may find themselves in.

I specialize in working with individuals who have experienced trauma. Traumatic experiences can include: sexual and/or physical abuse, neglect, combat, accidents, natural disasters, grief, medical procedures, and work by first responders. In my experience, many individuals suffer from depression, anxiety, and substance abuse due to unresolved trauma. Yet, symptoms can either be eliminated or substantially resolved when it is properly processed. I have witnessed individuals, who have been unable to leave their homes or have healthy relationships, heal and transform their lives. It is fulfilling to be part of their journey.
