Humanistic Therapists in Hollywood Park, TX

I am a counselor that realizes that we all have challenges in one's life journey. I can guide you through those life obstacles. I take a holistic approach to life wellness counseling, and I foster that each person is an individual with their own life perspectives. I can help you uncover and explore options within your social context and develop the potential inside you. I believe in providing a supportive, motivating environment to enable you to learn and discover how to enhance your personal view of happiness and life's purpose.

I consider it an honor and privilege to be included in someone's journey in understanding themselves and the world around them, and collaborate with clients as they work towards goals meaningful to them in therapy. Working with young adults and LGBTQIA+ individuals through their obstacles and successes is a particular passion of mine.

I believe that a person is a whole being, with a mind, a body, and a spirit, and that often we are challenged in the balance and wellness of these parts of us. Every one of us encounters challenges and endures hardships throughout our lives that may upend the different parts of us that make us feel well and whole. Although we share this fundamental human experience, no one person’s journey to find this balance again is exactly the same and in therapy we will gently and compassionately work towards you rediscovering your own footing.

Everyone is capable of resolving their own issues, but there are times when doing it all by yourself leads to a feedback loop of missed opportunities and unfortunate mistakes. Therapy with me is designed to address the underlying issues that impact our lives. The world has become increasingly polarized and most people seem lost in the middle. In treatment, we will examine how to exist and thrive in this world.

As a therapist, I believe that counseling services are a means for those in need, to seek professional, impartial and nonjudgmental assistance in a safe and comfortable environment

I work with clients to establish what their goals are for therapy. For some it may be to bring clarity to a specific situation that is causing disruption to their lives. For others, we may seek to uncover patterns of behavior that have been preventing them from living the lives they desire or having the sort of relationships they find most fulfilling. I seek to understand, increase awareness, relieve pain and fear, improve interpersonal skills and encourage growth. I have over 20 years of experience providing therapy to individuals and couples with a wide range of psychological difficulties.

The clinical approach I use to counseling is targeted to attend my client's needs. My preference is the Psychodynamic approach where the client and I explore the origins of their psychological discomfort and use the insights to the healing process incorporating changes in the present. Some clients however come to counseling with a sense of urgency, a need to work objectively in a specific problem with the aim of a faster solution focused to their crisis, and in these cases I support and stay present with the client's needs.
