EMDR Therapists in Plano, TX

I am available for in-person and teletherapy appointments. Scheduling an in-person or teletherapy appointment is easy on my online calendar, available 24/7! I successfully support clients managing stress, anxiety, or depression with simple tools and techniques! Are you unhappy/frustrated/sad? Do you have the motivation, but don't know where to start? If this is you, I can help! Individuals sometimes reach adulthood without the necessary skills to become happy, productive, and successful people. Through a process of getting to know you and some gentle training work together, I can help you change!

My goal is to make your therapeutic experience as fulfilling as possible. I use a solutions focused/cognitive behavioral approach to therapy that helps people reach their goals as efficiently as possible. I work with a large variety of people by providing individual counseling, family counseling and activity therapy, filial therapy, grief resolution, teen counseling, and group therapy.

I believe the job of therapy is to challenge, empower and support people so the highest quality of life is possible. The term "quality of life" is often used to describe the goal for "end of life" issues. The goal can be the highest quality of life for anyone at any age. Living in the crisis of extreme emotional pain, instability, addiction or extended grief is perhaps the lowest quality of life. To some, this state may seem like "all there is" or "normal" based on their past experience. Therapy can teach a new way to live.

Whose ready to make a change in their life? My greatest passion is to help individuals overcome any obstacles that prevent them from experiencing an improved quality of life. I help clients, who include adolescents and adults uncover strengths and learn new skills to take on any challenges in life. I'm ready to join you on your journey!
