EMDR Therapists in Plano, TX

I am committed to helping my clients achieve their goals. I believe that counseling can promote a lifestyle that results in physical, emotional, and spiritual well-being. I focus on the client as a whole individual, rather than a disorder, and encourage healthy behaviors across various aspects of life. I conceptualize individuals and form treatment plans tailored to each client's unique characteristics, strengths, values, and needs. I work diligently to create a safe, empathic, and supportive environment for my clients.

None of us are perfect. We've made some choices that we wish we could change. Everything we do, every choice, is for a good reason. We are here to learn and move forward into a better life for ourselves and those we love. The journey of self-knowledge creates healing, deepens our compassion, and helps us attain our highest purpose.

You keep rehashing the same argument with your partner. It might be the one about the dishes, the kids, or you needing to go to therapy…whatever the topic, you know it’s due to something deeper going on. The repeated arguments and lack of intimacy can leave each of you feeling distant and misunderstood. These days you might be fighting more than you’re not—but it doesn't have to stay this way. In therapy, we'll work together to uncover the root of these challenges. I specialize in helping couples navigate the complexities of identity, values, and relationships.

Do you find yourself engaging in unwanted repetitive behaviors? Are you depressed and consistently anxious, but you’re not sure why? Using a holistic approach, I work with you to understand the source of what brought you to therapy. In addition to identifying and treating symptoms in the short-term, we will work together to find the deeper, root causes for your symptoms, so you can achieve a more permanent freedom instead of simply coping.

We all wish life’s journey could be an easy one, but the reality is the path is not always smooth. Life can be filled with uncertainty, conflict, and hard choices. No matter what your age, there are times when life can leave you feeling lost. The good news is that this journey does not have to be faced alone. With a focus on compassion, connection, and what is developmentally appropriate, I can provide support and guidance through these challenges. Whether you are an adult, child, teen, parent, or whole family, I am able to help. I consider it a great privilege to be allowed to walk with people on their life's journey.

People seek therapy to address the mental health issues that they are struggling to manage independently. Often their goal is to find sustainable tools to apply in every day life so that they can navigate through those challenges in a supportive, non-judgmental environment where they can freely express themselves.

I am passionate about empowering people while they discover their authentic self. Becoming closer to our authentic self is what allows people to break generational curses, process trauma, learn life lessons, and heal. My goal is to provide a safe space where a person can feel seen, heard, and understood.

Where do you need healing and connection in your life? We can work together through the beauty and pain of your unique identity to discover who you truly are.

Many, if not all, of us experience periods of feeling overwhelmed, stuck, and burdened by life's demands, responsibilities, and even positive events like beginning a new job or getting married. You don't have to go through hard times alone, and while I always encourage people to reach out to friends and family for support, sometimes their advice and cheerleading is not enough. Therapy can help you through these hard times. Successful therapy allows you to live a more fulfilling life, accomplish your goals, and reduce symptoms of depression, anxiety, or other conditions.

Do you ever say to yourself, "I know I could be doing better. I can't handle the stress in my life. I don't feel like I have anyone to talk to?"

We ALL go through tough times where we may look back and say, "It would've been helpful if I had seen a therapist.''

I believe healthy relationships are key to living a happier and more fulfilling life. There’s no denying that relationships are hard, especially when life throws unexpected obstacles our way. Relationships are complex, whether it be the relationship you have with yourself, or the ones with your parents, siblings, partner, family members, friends, or co-workers. Maybe you’re feeling overwhelmed, discouraged, or stuck. Perhaps you are feeling disconnected, frustrated, or unappreciated in your relationships. Or you might be on a journey of personal growth or seeking to strengthen your relationships, but are not sure where to start.
