Interpersonal Therapists in Lewisville, TX

Has your sex life left you feeling anxious or frustrated? Have you experienced trauma, infidelity or medical concerns that has impacted your sexual function? Do you and your partner continue to argue over the "small things"? Perhaps you are struggling with interpersonal issues, low self-esteem, balancing work/home life. It is time to stop ignoring these sensitive issues and talk to someone who is genuine, has an open mind and is non-judgmental. My goal is to provide a safe environment to help you discover your strengths and develop solutions to overcome the challenges you may face.

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor in the state of Texas, and I obtained my Masters of Science in Counseling from Southern Methodist University. I have experience working with children, teens, and adults on a variety of struggles such as depression, anxiety, ADHD, gender/identity, autism, parenting/family issues, as well as OCD and bipolar disorder.

Your emotional safety and our therapeutic relationship are important to me. I prioritize creating an environment that is safe, confidential, free of judgment, genuine, empathetic, and compassionate. I believe that it is important that we connect and you feel safe. My educational training is as a generalist, which provides me the skills to implement many different evidence based interventions and treat most issues that bring people to therapy. My expertise is in working with adults who have experienced trauma, particularly interpersonal abuse such as sexual abuse/assault, relationship abuse, etc.

Whether you're seeking to heal from current or past traumas, or you're needing extra support to get through life’s difficulties, I want to help. You are worthy of safety, compassion, empowerment, genuine connection with others, and joy. My goals are to build a strong therapeutic relationship with clients and create an environment that is authentic, nonjudgmental, and empathetic. I believe it is important that we connect and you feel safe in our shared space.

I believe in meeting my clients where they are, helping them identify where they want to be, and working with them to make a tangible plan to get there. I believe therapy should be a judgment-free, empathetic environment where we build a therapeutic relationship that facilitates even the most painful growth. Through this approach, clients understand that I am genuinely motivated to help them reach their happiest, healthiest self, which allows me to provide difficult feedback when necessary. Optimum wellness looks different for everyone, and I believe that no matter what everyone can and deserves to pursue (and achieve) this state.

Have you been struggling with anxious or negative thoughts and are unsure how to break out of them? Do you feel anxious or depressed most days than not but are not quite sure what that might be about? Or perhaps you feel “out of control” and notice that it is spilling into other aspects of your life? I help adults make sense of their struggles in order to live a more enthusiastic and confident life, and to improve their relationships both within and with others.

As a psychologist I counsel many people who feel they are at their lowest point even when no one knows they are feeling this way. I also counsel people who just need a listening ear and support. Your willingness to seek more from your life instead of living with the status quo is admirable.

I specialize in seeing individuals who are dealing with the following issues: depression and anxiety, Bipolar disorders, relationship issues, childhood sexual abuse/trauma, career transitions, unplanned pregnancy, grief and loss, and behavioral problems. I have training in Biblical studies (a one year certificate in Bible and Ministry) which provides a foundation for Biblically-based counseling. I do treat clients who express a non-spiritual focus.

I do a lot of work with individuals and couples struggling in relationship issues. Anxiety, depression, conflict management and communication issues tend to be the results of clients applying ineffective solutions to the problems they're experiencing. I love to see the individual and/or couple who seriously desire healthy change in their lives and are willing to risk implementing different approaches to their problems. I work well in family related issues. I have several adolescent guys with issues related to ADD, ADHD, and Aspergers. I offer them an environment that's safe, accepting, understanding and validating.

Since the days of pigtails, I’ve been pulled by this strong force to access wisdom and connect with something higher than this tangible world. This gnawing passion has led me to study the power of the mind and how to create what our souls truly desire. I’ve been blessed to study ancient technologies such as yoga and breathwork and am so passionate about sharing simple tools to effect real change. I was trained in counseling at University of North Texas, receiving my Masters in Education. My favorite courses were transpersonal counseling and stress reduction through movement.

Through the use of a systemic approach, I explore the issues you bring to therapy in the context of your world and important relationships in your life. My role as a therapist is to empower you to help yourself.

I am Licensed Professional Counselor licensed in Texas with over 10 years of experience working in the mental health field. I have worked with clients with a wide range of concerns. I have also helped many people who have experienced physical and emotional trauma. My counseling style is warm and interactive. I believe in treating anyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion. My approach combines many counseling approaches such as but not limited to cognitive-behavioral, person-centered and rational-emotive counseling. I will tailor our dialogue and treatment plan to meet your unique needs.

I love diversity! I especially enjoy working with clients who have never been to therapy before. I pride myself on making clients feel comfortable. I start with wherever the client is, which means we move as quickly or as slowly in therapy as they feel comfortable. I emphasize a safe environment for the counseling session. My down-to-earth approach provides clients with the professional counseling relationship they need to work through their stresses & problem situations without the uncomfortable feeling of working with a "stuffy" therapist. I don't know everything & don't pretend to. Let's start your journey to a better life!

I am passionate about helping people overcome their struggles and find hope, strength, peace, and solutions. I believe that people are innately capable and good, and I work with clients to help them access the capacity to heal. I believe in the healing power of relationships, and I work with clients to develop and improve those relationships so that they can provide support, connection, compassion, and safety as they struggle to overcome life challenges, depression, anxiety, trauma, and other struggles. I also believe that, for some, healing relationships that have suffered pain and betrayal is critical to long-term recovery.

I'm a Licensed Professional Counselor, and I'm taking on new clients. I have over 20 years experience and I love to work with children and families, and my specialties include children learning differences, including ADHD, Autism, 2e, Dyslexia and other neurodivergences. I also do general counseling for adults and teens. I love to help kids develop skills that will help them lead a successful, independent life. If you'd like to talk more, please feel free to contact me. I also love working with schools, teachers and churches to help them develop effective strategies for working with children with special needs.

Life is challenging and at times can be overwhelming. The need to have two Income families, shuttling kids to school then to activities such as sporting events, dance practice and band practice is very daunting to say the least. Sometimes people turn to substance abuse, and other unhealthy behaviors which then become a problem rather then a solution. This affects all family members. The real solution lies within each of us. My work is to help you ferret out that solution. Unhealed traumas and complex emotions needing to be untangled ware us down. Help is available. call or email me.

As a therapist, I understand that making a choice to change the thoughts, feelings, relationships, or circumstances in our lives that are creating barriers or problems is a courageous thing to do. In both individual and couples counseling, I will partner with you to identify the issues preventing you from being who and where you want to be in your own life. I will work with you to create a safe space to work through whatever issues or needs bring you to therapy.
