Psychodynamic Therapists in Flower Mound, TX

Are you really hard on yourself? Do you often see the world as very black and white, right or wrong? Have you been called a perfectionist? Do these qualities put a strain on your relationships? It is exhausting to try to measure up to these expectations that the world puts on us, or even worse, that we put on ourselves. By engaging in a therapeutic relationship, my hope is for you to find self-compassion and freedom.

I work with my clients to build confidence and autonomy in my sessions to speak freely. No struggle is too big or too small. We work on creating larger goals at first, while also looking into smaller steps to reach those larger goals. My top priority is client comfort and ensuring a safe space for each person in the therapeutic environment. Just be yourself and come to the session, you've already done an amazing job.

If you feel stuck, unbalanced, or overwhelmed, and even talking with a good friend isn't helping, counseling can help! Working with someone that is not connected to the rest of your life and focused only on you can be liberating. I strive to create an encouraging environment where you feel comfortable to talk openly and honestly, allowing us to uncover the roots of your struggles and explore what will best help you resolve your problems and get back to a more centered, balanced, and engaging life.

There is no cookie cutter therapeutic approach that works for everyone. Your personality and struggles are unique, and your therapy experience should be too.
