ARE YOU TIRED OF SCROLLING THROUGH THERAPISTS' PROFILES? Life can be challenging enough, and finding a counselor shouldn't add another stressor. You may feel overwhelmed at work, disappointed with a relationship, or uncertain about your future. You want to find a counselor you connect with and feel confident that can help you. I believe life is too short to surrender to bad relationships, hold grudges, let trauma control you, or feel anxious, depressed, and angry all the time. I want you to feel free of emotional pain, confident about your future, and find meaning and purpose in your work, family, friendships, or spirituality. For nearly a decade, I've walked with literally hundreds of clients through some of their darkest times. I'm a licensed counselor in 2 states (TX & FL), a Master Addiction Counselor, and a licensed Supervisor for other counselors in training. I've also done public speaking events and interviews on mental health topics and spirituality. I see situations that are similar to yours all the time. I understand life can be challenging and sometimes feel terrible. I cannot offer a magic pill to take it away or fix everything, but I can assure you that you don't have to figure things out alone. I don't believe anyone should go through the struggle alone. Reach out today and begin the change

Healing starts with providing you a place where you can identify, grow from and explore those very issues that may be getting in the way. Whether you are struggling with relationship issues, parenting, career change, loss or life transition, I can help you and give you the tools you need for a successful life. My background consists an abundance of life experiences and the military culture as a military brat as well as a retired spouse of a service member.

I promote a safe environment that encourages empathy, insight, and empowerment. It is important to build a trusting relationship which will assist with working through the presenting issue(s). I utilize psychodynamic techniques which means I not only look at helping to work through what is currently not going right, but also finding the root of the issue(s). I believe the knowledge gained towards what has caused these struggles will create a longer-term change. The aim is to not just to help to fix the initial symptoms, but to also create tools to use then and in future situations.

I tailor my approach to the needs of each individual. Some clients require a more directive psycho-educational approach to therapy and for others therapy may be more of a process of self exploration, discovery and learning in which the client is supported, guided and empowered to successfully lead their own life.
