Therapists in Grand Prairie, TX

Life's challenges can leave us feeling stuck or isolated as if we need to hide our pain and carry these burdens alone. But what happens if these burdens are too heavy to bear? That's where I come in. As a Licensed Professional Counselor, I am here to offer you a guiding hand through some of life's toughest moments. Whether you're navigating a miscarriage, adjusting to life postpartum, or grappling with depression or anxiety, you don't have to face it alone. Together, we can work to move through these changes and onto the next chapter of your life.

As a Counselor, minister, wife, and mother, I have a unique perspective on the struggle of wearing various hats and juggling life. We were designed to be part of community. Counseling can provide a space you've been longing for. Let’s talk and figure out how you can truly live with hope and find the peace you’ve been longing to have. You don’t need to struggle alone.

Are you a Christian woman who could use some support at this juncture in your life? Maybe you are struggling in your role as a single, wife, mother, or professional. Or perhaps you just need someone to come alongside you to speak life over you and spur you toward your life goals. You may even be a Licensed Master Social Worker (LMSW) seeking supervision from a likeminded supervisor.

I am honored to be able to assist others with challenges throughout life and I have been counseling clients for over 15 years. I have worked with trauma, and criminal justice issues as well as using play therapy. I am trauma focused and I believe trauma colors our behaviors and our future self. I use Trauma Focused-Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Cognitive Processing Therapy, and Eye Movement Desensitization Reprocessing therapy to explore past trauma that is affecting your life.

I graduated from Our Lady of the Lake University with a Masters of Science in Psychology degree with a concentration in Marriage and Family therapy. I have experience working with clients in individual, family, couple, and group therapy sessions in inpatient, community-based, and private practice settings. I am dedicated to exceptional customized therapeutic services that give my clients the ability to identify, explore and process emotions through carefully customized interventions like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Solution-Focused Therapy, and Trauma-Informed Care.

Perhaps you find yourself burdened by the past, no matter your successes or efforts in your life today. You may be worn out by overwhelming emotions, ongoing self-doubt, emerging addictions, and diminishing relationships. You may not even remember a time when you didn’t feel like this. But one thing's for sure... you’re ready for some relief. You’re ready to heal from the past and feel good about who you are. You’re ready to start experiencing emotions in a healthy way as you release trauma and addictions. Most of all, you’re ready to move on from a place of just surviving, day to day, to one of fully embracing the life you want.

Are you in need of a counselor that will help you make positive changes in your personal life? Then Empowering Minds Counseling services can be a perfect place to start! As a licensed professional counselor, I want to help you achieve greater focus, resilience and life transition skills by working one on one during the counseling session. My therapeutic approach engages clients to be an active part of the process to resolve life issues. I also provide academic coaching sessions for adolescents and young adults that focus on college and career preparation, both academically and emotionally.

Are you facing the challenges of overwhelming life circumstances? Having trouble managing trauma and anxiety? Often, the thinking patterns we have accumulated throughout our lives are operating below the surface and become the very things that get in the way of the life for which we long. We may not be able to change the situations that happen to us but we can change how we perceive them and how we respond. With years of experience my passion is working with individuals, children/teens and families to develop a plan to create a happy, healthy, thriving life.

My ideal clients want to reclaim their lives from the shadow of trauma and move toward a future characterized by healing, growth, and empowerment. They seek my expertise and support to help them on this journey of recovery.

During times of trouble, struggle, or unhappiness, it is hard to always stay positive. Life challenges can be unfair and can change who we are as a person. I hope to join in the journey with my clients as they move towards a positive, lasting change for their lives. During the initial session, we will establish well-developed goals. We will utilize each session to investigate the clients’ strengths and build a toolbox of strategies for clients to be empowered.

Are you suffering from Depression or Anxiety? Are you feeling the effects of a everyday stress? Have you been told that you have anger issues and need to speak to someone about it? Are you struggling with self-esteem and self-worth? Sometimes life can become very difficult and even discouraging, but you do not have to face these challenges alone. I believe that therapy is a place in which we can heal from our past and begin to build a brighter future.

Sometimes we don't see pain on the outside. Sometimes we silently suffer alone and it does impact our life in many ways- job, friends, family, romance, our self image/esteem, confidence. Sometimes we are haunted by the past. Sometimes there is depression/anxiety/panic. These are my kinds of clients. I see you and there is hope! Often, trauma and stress is what keeps us from enjoying life. What can goals be when the mud is thick? That's what I am here for. To assist in exploring the YOU in this life journey. Getting back to or finding your true self-loving more, respect understanding of self. Increase enjoyment for life connection.
