People generally come to therapy because there is some area of their life in which they are stuck and in pain. I practice from an “attachment” perspective which is the key to unlocking a different way of understanding yourself and your interactions with others, opening a pathway to practical and relational healing. My office is a no-blame/no-shame environment. I provide both traditional talk therapy as well as Equine Assisted Psychotherapy (EAP) to individuals (age 8 and up), couples, and families just 20 miles SE of Dallas. Because of my experience as an adoptive dad, foster and adoptive families are a focus of my practice.

My ideal client is someone who seeks to understand and overcome their feelings that say things like "I'm not good enough" and/or other anxious thoughts. This thought may make them struggle in relationships, at work, and in personal growth due to their desire for perfection. What I believe this client truly needs is a sense of belonging and significance, coupled with the courage to confront those thoughts head-on. Their goals are centered around achieving a balanced life, forming meaningful relationships, and finding purpose in contributing positively to the people in their life.

You didn't realize just how overwhelmed, broken, and alone you'd feel. Suffering through infertility and baby loss is beyond devastating. Traumatic experiences bring anxiety and shame up to the surface and impact our most meaningful relationships. Even 'happy' things like marriage and becoming a new mom becomes a complex mash-up of emotions. Despite your best efforts, the emotional roller coaster and quiet despair haven't gone away. You try so so hard. And yet, you are lost, filled with worry and guilt. You fear losing intimacy and connection with your partner and see the beginnings of drifting apart.

It is a difficult task to face issues that a person would much rather keep buried and pretend do not exist. Counseling takes courage. It takes a person willing to be open and be vulnerable; a person who is willing to do the work and make changes in their thoughts and to form new habits and not to possess the unrealistic expectation of it happening instantly. It takes a person who is willing to keep going forward when it gets tough.

Not only are we individuals with our own thoughts, feelings and experiences, we are part of a more complex network of family, culture and community. That looks different for everyone! Learning how to navigate and nurture our personal development is crucial, and understanding ourselves within the greater context of our relationships remains equally important in setting one up to thrive and grow.
