Cognitive Behavioral (CBT) Therapists in Garden Ridge, TX

Congratulations on taking your first step toward experiencing freedom and healthy living. I am a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW), and I have been practicing social work in the mental health arena since 2019. As a clinical social worker, I was also trained by Dr. Michelle Morrissey to practice Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) therapy, through the EMDR International Association. I also have experience in providing Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), attachment theory framework methods, mindfulness practices, boundary setting strategies, and more.

Therapy is a very personal experience. From managing emotions, to coping with life stressors, to improving relationships, each person has their own reason for wanting to begin therapy. I work with each client to identify specific changes they want to make and find the tools to make them. My focus is to consider your individual situation first, working collaboratively to reach the goals you choose. There are many ways therapy can be helpful if you are feeling overwhelmed. I can provide a calm place as you learn to cope with difficult feelings. Call if you are ready to make changes.

Life is a journey and everyone's trial and tribulations are different. In life, it is inevitable that change occurs and that can be an overwhelming venture to embark on alone. I can be a tool and a resource for you during your time of need. I am passionate about helping others; it is a calling in my life. As Elisabeth Kubler-Ross stated, "Beautiful people do not just happen." Ross's statement has always sparked a fire within me, as I know from personal and professional experience that strength comes from within and growth comes from pain, sometimes we just need a little help.

I offer person-centered and cognitive approaches that take into account your unique personal history, strengths and challenges. We work on emotional wounds, relating, overcoming anxieties, and building confidence. I do work with individuals, couples and families. Telephone and FaceTime sessions available.
