My Background and Approach
I earned my M.A. in Professional Counseling from Amberton University and am currently a licensed associate completing my final supervision hours for full Texas licensure. Prior to joining ATA in private practice, my primary training experiences involved helping individuals work through anxiety, depression, grief, and trauma in various clinical settings around Mesquite ISD. Prior to earning my masters in counseling, I gained an abundance of experience working with children, teenagers, and parents in the private and public education system. I believe the therapeutic relationship is the foundation for success in therapy and also enjoy employing a heavy influence of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy techniques.
My Personal Beliefs and Interests
Fundamentally, I care deeply and believe that most people are inherently good natured and worthy of respect, genuine concern, and love. Life is challenging and often requires grace along the way. I consider it a privilege to walk alongside clients in their journey towards gaining introspection, growth and healing. I aspire to create and maintain a safe clinical space that welcomes connection and vulnerability in order to build a unique therapeutic relationship offering warmth, empathy and encouragement.
