Experiential Therapy in Liberty Hill, TX

I believe there comes a time in everyone's life when we will feel lost, disconnected or hopeless. We sometimes lose our ability to deal with life's challenges. This inability to deal with life's challenges can be frightening, confusing and problematic. What is needed at such moments in our life is an attuned and trusted other. Someone who can believe in us when we can't believe in ourselves. It is in this kind of therapeutic relationship where old wounds are healed and we learn to trust, manage our emotions and reconnect to our wise and true self.

Supervised by Maria Dudley, MS, LPC-S, RPT. Available: Mon-Thur (5pm-7pm) and Sat from (10am-1pm). I look to see the world through my client's eyes and lessen the gap between their ideal and authentic self. I strive to make a space where clients feel safest being their authentic self, showing who they are fully while holding space for hard conversations and challenging topics. I see counseling as a journey with my clients and approach with curiosity, gentleness, honesty, and a little fun.

I assist people in addressing their relationships and addictions, creating stability, building purpose, healing relationship pain, and breaking negative cycles. My passion lies in helping couples connect on a deeper level and achieve long-lasting change in their relationships. As a relational therapist, I understand that every relationship is unique and requires a personalized approach. To that end, I utilize a variety of therapeutic modalities, including Satir, Experiential, Relational Life Therapy, Internal Family Systems, SFT, and Gottman. I help people identify and address their core issues while building strong foundations.

Everybody is going through something. We all have our own stories to tell, issues we need to face, and storms we have to go through. I want to come alongside you and help you find healing in your circumstances whatever they may be. If you have experienced trauma, have unresolved pain or are struggling with current issues, I want to help you process those things in a healthy, therapeutic way to resolve the negative emotions and behaviors tied to them. Through grief and loss, depression, anxiety or marital problems, I am here to help you find healing, comfort and strength within yourself to overcome and move forward.

People have always been my passion. They fascinate me...what makes them tick, what makes them happy, how they fit together. People are defined by their culture, their beliefs, their relationships, connections, communications, structure, and family. All people are connected. Everyone affects everyone they know. When one person has problems, everyone in the family is affected. Sometimes the relationships themselves need work; but everyone needs to tell their story, to feel heard and validated. Everyone deserves to declare their voice, their identity. And sometimes, we all need a little help with telling others our needs and feelings.
