Trauma and PTSD Therapists in Dripping Springs, TX

In my two decades as therapist, I have been honored to witness people move through incredible challenges and sometimes transform the trajectory of their lives, Just as our bodies send healing to our physical wounds, we hold inside us all we need to be move through tremendous struggles to emerge whole. Our innate capacity to heal is in all of us. It is outside of our awareness because our minds are full of noise. I help my clients become inner explorers. I help them develop a lens of self-compassion, freedom from judgment and gentle curiosity about themselves. When we are at peace within ourselves, everything is possible.

Along the road, we all developed temporary tools to solve the problems in our lives. Unfortunately, we often forgot to stop using those tools, and they became "permanent." In the end, using the wrong tool to solve a problem does not make one's life better, only worse. In therapy, I work with adolescents and adults to re-tool and get more of what they want out of life. Let's get started!

Hey there! However you got here, I am glad we crossed paths and that you decided to take a look into counseling.

Counseling is an opportunity to grow, heal, and flourish! Each and every client brings their own unique strengths to the table and I believe that these attributes can be leveraged in order to create a better quality of life. www.safespacehealingcollective.com

Are you stuck? You may find yourself stuck and unable to change recurring disturbing emotions, troubling thoughts and destructive behaviors. Past traumatic events may fuel painful feelings, disturbed thinking, relationship problems and hurtful actions. Eliminating ghosts from the past begins the process of enduring change and healing.

At the heart of my approach is the belief that human beings naturally possess the power to heal, change, and grow. With that in mind, I encourage and support a collaborative process between myself and the client. The purpose of forming this therapeutic relationship is to enable the client to identify the obstacles and resolve the conflicts which interfere with his or her ability to live life fully.

It is a brave and courageous step to start this healing journey. Have you noticed yourself, or child feel overwhelmed? Have you experienced hurt, that causes you struggles in your daily life and relationships? Do you need a safe space to process difficult emotions or issues? Do you need assistance as a caregiver to connect with your child more? I would be honored to help you navigate any of these life stressors. I want my clients to gain as many skills as possible; leaving therapy feeling well equipped to manage any curve ball thrown your way.

OPEN for New Clients: The most potent skill I want to offer to you is the ability to both witness and also experience fully whatever is arising within you with kindness and curiosity. Holding this paradox gently appears to be the way to move through difficulty and be open to the wisdom of the challenge. I will help you as you navigate natural life transitions and finding yourself struggling to make meaning of your difficulties. Changes in relationships, health and roles in our families are some of the things that can be very challenging to accept and contend with, and I aspire to be a trusted guide in your journey.

Hello and hola! Coping with stress and challenges can be difficult but finding ways to manage and knowing that you're not alone can help you reach goals. I work with teens and adults by supporting them through emotional distress, tough situations and life changes.

In life we experience unpleasant moments during our journey with ups and downs; sometimes it can feel more overwhelming rather than positive. It might look like dissolving relationships personal or professional, difficulty expressing emotions, or anger getting the best of you. It could be spending too much time in your head than living in the moment and missing out in life.

Suffering from depression, anxiety, and other mental health conditions can be debilitating and hold you back from leading a happy and balanced life. We invite you to learn more about your treatment options to recover. Call for a Free Confidential assessment and schedule an appointment today.

Do you feel alone or hopeless? Do you or someone you know struggle with alcohol or other substances? Have you been wishing that you could go back to the early days of drinking? Are you being dishonest about how much you drink or use? Maybe you have been questioning what happened and how did I get here? When we consume alcohol or other substances we are looking for a release. Some people can find this without the damaging effects it can create on our lives. Some of us are no longer able to do this. If you are looking for greater connection and other ways to relax and find comfort, I can help.

If you are looking for a listener because you need to talk to about: conflict in your marriage, unbearable family relationships, step parenting challenges, frustration with ADHD - yours or someone else's, scary new life transitions, healing from a traumatic event or relationship, or a constant nagging sadness or anxiousness that just won't go away, then we should talk!

Your healing has already started. I know this because you've made a decision to seek help. And right now, you are taking the next important step of searching for a therapist who best matches your personality. These remarkable actions demonstrate bravery, determination, and intellect.

The client notices that I am wanting to understand more and more about what it's like to be her or him. Trust develops. I come to admire the client's willingness to dare a variety of words and feelings. S/he discovers the bolstering agency that comes with the exploration. S/he discovers that s/he can put me back on track if I misunderstand or misinterpret something. We come to be genuine and open about our experience of one another. I feel respectful and honored. Tears and laughter are both welcome . I accept BCBS (not Health Select) and, in some cases Medicare. $175 per session.

Struggling through breastfeeding? Feeling overwhelmed by the all the changes that come with a new baby? Questioning how you are going to make it through another day postpartum? I see you! Now more than ever, new mamas are feeling uncertain about breastfeeding, who they are after baby and how to make all these pressure filled decisions. At Landmark Counseling Practice, I offer individual tele therapy sessions for pregnant and postpartum mamas looking to find hope and support during their transition to motherhood.

Does it feel like you are stuck? Are you sick and tired of feeling confused, lonely, worthless, lost, broken? Is it hard to even get out of bed since your loss? Does transitioning to the next phase in life seem out of reach? How determined are you to find love again? How desperate are you for a solution to feel the same way you once did? If you are reading this, then now is the time to take a new journey for yourself. You are ready to dive deep within to determine your self-worth. You can heal from your grief/loss/divorce/breakup!

I believe that it takes tremendous courage for an individual to reach out for counseling. People often take this step when they are feeling stuck or stagnant, unable to find relief and solutions on their own. I view my work with my clients as a partnership: I bring clinical knowledge and experience to the alliance and my clients bring their strengths, their inner wisdom, and their readiness to explore. While working together I provide a safe, comfortable and informative environment in which the client can find healing, seek solutions and create strategies that will bring about lasting change.

Hi - thank you for taking time to read my profile. If you choose to work with me, I will make every effort to help you feel comfortable and safe, yet challenged to make positive changes in your life. Sometimes trying to handle life on your own can be difficult - especially when you are emotionally close to your situation. With what we're collectively going through, things you were dealing with prior can feel even more intense. In exchange for your willingness to reach out, I will work to offer you support, guidance and a new perspective.

I work with children and teens/adolescents struggling through divorce, anxiety, ADHD, grief, low self-esteem, and social isolation. I also work with moms experiencing self-doubt and feeling overwhelmed by the many hats they have to wear at home, work, and in the world.
