About My Clients

Maybe you feel you can't make relationships work. Or you don't feel connected to anyone; nobody understands you. Maybe you're feeling a lot of panic and anxiety, and you don't know exactly why, but you can't relax. There's little to feel happy about. Everything feels tedious, exhausting, and scary. Nothing works; you can't win or seem to do anything right. If you feel that this will never end, I can tell you that it can and it will. You're almost there -just give me a chance to help.

My Background and Approach

I have EMDR Phase I and II training, Trauma-Focused CBT training, some training and experience with IFS (parts work) and training in Trauma Competency. I generally focus on developing the future Self and use a variety of methods to help clients progress and feel confident and stronger. I work with clients who fear their issues are so overwhelming that I will get tired of them, or that they are burdensome and need too much help. First, that's a trauma response. Second, there is nothing you can share with me that will scare me away or make me think I can't or won't help you. You deserve the best care, and I will work to give you that. I also need you to know that I am not a passive therapist. I am one who challenges clients towards healing. I don't want you to stay here, I want you to move forward; to get out of this dark and stuck place. You can meet with me for a free session to determine if we are a good fit: 254-374-6141.

My Personal Beliefs and Interests

Everyone is capable of their own healing. Each one of us has the solutions to our problems already within us. I merely guide you to those answers. There is nothing so wrong with you that you are not lovable, that you do not have amazing skills to live this life towards fulfillment, that you should be alone or isolated, that you should believe life should be on hold until you get "fixed". You contain everything you need in this moment to begin changing your life for the better. You are not destined to be miserable, or fated to be stuck in the past. Everyone deserves a way out. Everyone deserves help and support. No one should have to do this work alone. Everyone is welcome.
