Trauma and PTSD Therapists in Paige, TX

Hi there. First, I'd like to wish you well, especially as you work with a psychotherapist. In the 13+ years that I've been practicing, I've learned that each person and each relationship is unique, so I've developed a variety of ways to approach psychotherapy and relationship therapy that help individuals to heal and help couples to relate. By working with thoughts and feelings, with mind and with heart, people can move through what is in the way, blocking them from feeling better and being better. I'm absolutely honored to help with that movement.

Sometimes we wake up and find our life suddenly looks so different than what we thought it would. Maybe this is due to trauma, loss, change, or our own choices. When this happens, it can be overwhelming and isolating. My desire is to meet you in this brokenness and walk with you through it. You are not defined by what you have experienced in the past or in the present. I want to help you see your worth and identity in the fullness of what it is.

Do you feel like you swing between constant worry and overthinking to periods of extreme exhaustion, numbness, and shutdown? For many of us, this state of constant survival has become part of our daily lives. For valid reasons, we can become masters at under or over-responding to our body’s distress signals. If you are reading this, you are already becoming aware this is an unsustainable relationship. You know on a deeper level it is time to make changes that lead to a life beyond survival. I help individuals understand the connection between their bodies, emotions, beliefs and how each influence overall wellbeing.

My educational background includes an M.A. in Psychology from the University of Mary Hardin-Baylor, and an M.A. in Forensic Psychology from the Chicago School of Professional Psychology. I am focused on providing compassionate and effective therapy tailored to each individual's needs. As a provider of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), and Parent-Child Interaction Therapy (PCIT), I offer evidence-based approaches to address behavioral, anxiety, mood, and trauma-related disorders. I am committed to fostering a safe and supportive environment for clients of all ages.

Having a baby is a huge life transition individually and for the family. Change can happen in an instant but navigating your personal transition in response to that change takes time so it is important to nurture yourself through pregnancy and postpartum. During the perinatal period, anxiety can feel overwhelming especially if you are having scary thoughts and difficulty regulating emotions. You are not alone and at times motherhood is hard. It's okay to make yourself a priority and be mindful of what you are feeling and needing. When we take care of ourselves, we are then better equipped to be there for others in our life.

Graduating with a Bachelor's in Psychology in 2009 and earning my Masters in Counseling in 2021, my journey in the field includes a decade as a special education teacher and two years as a school counselor. My experience in foster care has deepened my understanding of families and the impact of trauma. These experiences shape how I help as a therapist. I'm passionate about neurodiversity, focusing on individuals with diverse neurological profiles. I'm trained in cognitive-behavioral therapy, play therapy, trauma therapy, parent coaching, mindfulness, and art therapy, tailoring my approach to each client's unique needs.

Everyone should have accessible mental health services in order to maintain their overall well-being.

Are you are ready to heal from your trauma and not repeat the past? Maybe, you can no longer trust your intuition to determine who is good for you and who isn't?

You are struggling to cope with the trauma caused by the relationship.

You’re a sensitive, empathetic, deep thinker and feeler. Lately, you feel lost, disconnected, and wonder if you can even feel better. You thought you were ok but experiences from the past have reappeared. The anxiety and sadness have crept in. No one can tell because you hold it all together. Exercise, eating healthy, scrolling, reading about what you're going through, and talking to those closest to you isn’t helping anymore. You’re exhausted. It’s taken its toll, and you’ve shut down. You want to feel confident; less self-doubt and shame; no longer feel like the past is in control; and gain a sense of calm and freedom from this.
