Most everyone dreams of a life that will turn out as we imagine it. But often, life takes a detour from that plan and many times we face discomfort or unwanted pain. We can experience anxiety, feel depressed, have broken relationships and don't know what to do. You want someone who can help you, your marriage, or family to move forward in life.

Now offering supervision for Associates in Texas. In the midst of difficult times and challenges, we find opportunity. I believe that the moments we are pushed out of our comfort zone allow for personal growth and healing. I pull from several different approaches including Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Solution-Focused Brief Therapy (SFBT). I find that this creates a unique counseling experience for each client and provides a collaborative environment to explore.

I work with people who feel disconnected from themselves. For many reasons, you may have found ways to protect yourself from painful feelings or people who might hurt you. Often, these ways of protecting yourself led you to now feeling disconnected from yourself. I believe that your mental health struggles aren't pathological. What I see is ways you have adapted to survive difficulties in life that have in turn created challenges for you, like relationship issues, struggles with emotional intimacy, anxiety and panic attacks, career burnout, and/or using food or alcohol in ways that make you feel ashamed.

The sexual part of your life is not where you want it to be and you are desperate for change. You and your partner are worried that something might be wrong with you or your relationship. You don’t know where to go for help. This sexual issue is keeping you from being happy and you and/or your partner are depressed and anxious all the time. You think about this all the time. You feel like you don’t know enough about sex and you certainly don’t know how to solve this problem, even though you have tried. No one taught you how to have a healthy and positive sexual identity, so how are you supposed to know how to fix this?

Asking for help can be hard. There is still so much stigma and misunderstanding associated with mental health. Day to day life can be overwhelming and difficult to manage no matter who you are. Whether you're going through a transition, or seeking support for past or recent trauma, there is help. Guidance and clarity in your experience as a first time mother, a firefighter, a grieving father, or someone struggling with addiction, is just a call/email away.

How does experiential therapy work?
Experiential therapy works by allowing an individual to use their creativity to re-imagine themselves and their lives in an effort to process their emotions. Experiential therapy may take many forms, including engaging clients through art, re-enactments, role-playing, music, or forms of physical recreation. By focusing on these activities, experiential therapists help individuals identify the emotions they associate with previous experiences and work together to cope with negative reactions, like fear, anger, or shame.
Is experiential therapy evidence-based?
Experiential therapy incorporates many therapy modalities, some of which have been more closely researched than others. Music therapy, for example, has been shown to help with sleep problems. Some studies find that art therapy can be beneficial for those with eating disorders or personality disorders, while other research suggests that such approaches have little impact.
How long does experiential therapy last?
The duration of experiential therapy will depend on the type of therapy used as well as the severity of the challenges an individual faces. Play therapy sessions may last for 30 to 45 minutes, and usually occur weekly for about 20 sessions. Art therapy may comprise 10 to 15 weekly sessions. Music therapy sessions generally last between 30 and 50 minutes and can be scheduled weekly or on an as-needed basis. For each therapy type, clients should periodically discuss their goals with their therapist to make sure the two are aligned on process and progress.
Does experiential therapy help with trauma?
Trauma is one area where experiential therapy may be useful. Traumatic experiences such as combat or childhood abuse can be so painful that articulating them can be too scary or painful; creating visual art allows people to express themselves without words, and tell their story in a different way. Listening to music can be relaxing, while making music as part of a group provides plenty of opportunities to connect with other people. Play therapy is often of value to children who have experienced a loss or distressing family experience, or who have been physically or emotionally abused.
