About My Clients

My ideal client is someone who's ready to approach the therapeutic process head-on! I know it takes time for clients and therapists to build trusting relationships, and major progress doesn't usually appear right away. I hope that my clients will be open to new ideas and experiences; without enacting a change to a negative pattern, the pattern will stay the same. I often click well with clients who are navigating life transitions, anxiety, depression, or stress.

My Background and Approach

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor Associate for the state of Texas, and I currently practice virtually, so if you are a Texas resident, I can help! I am trained in EMDR, and I think it's a great method to assist people in processing negative beliefs about past events in their lives. EMDR can work for almost all types of negative experiences that need to be processed or rewired in the brain, and I find it to be an invaluable tool with my clients. I take a warm, empathetic approach, and I always try to meet clients where they are. I encourage clients to get in touch with their physical feelings in order to better understand their thoughts and emotions, and I use several mindfulness tools myself that I am passionate about sharing with my clients. I constantly try to strike a balance between validating my clients' emotions and challenging clients' beliefs that aren't serving them. My first priority is to make sure that my clients feel safe, heard, and understood.
