About My Clients
My clients seek an experienced professional to help deal with the hurt of a relationship falling apart, and I specialize in Couples & Individual Counseling in the Dallas area or online in TX. For 15+ years, I've guided clients to find their joy again, to identify and undo patterns that hold them back individually, or with significant others. I focus on neurodiverse couples (for the past decade), typical couples, & lessening anxiety or depressive symptoms, plus even process trauma (EMDR, ART, )
My Background and Approach
I help achieve relationship goals and identify values that work for both partners. My special neurodiverse certifications include those approved by the American Psychological Association, AANE (American Autism Network), ND Partnerships, and ASDCS (certified autism spectrum disorder clinical specialist). Maybe you need help adapting your worldview from “solo experience” to “one of partnership goals"? Or perhaps guidance in how to manage ADHD, or your sensory sensitivities (especially for intimacy satisfaction). I provide specific interventions teaching skills, flexibility and self-advocacy, while still caring for your partner and your unique self. Targeted neurodiverse couples’ interventions—especially if a partner is a “late -diagnosed” autistic adult or a female autistic— emphasize and teach: New understandings and self-advocacy * Effective tools for communication * Perspective taking * Compromise and repair * Strategies to minimize burnout * Workplace accommodation reports
My Personal Beliefs and Interests
I believe we all have change available, and that undoing patterns involves understanding your past, addressing the present and succeeding in a different, yet positive, future that is one you deserve. Humans are wired for connection, we are healthier and achieve a longer lifespan with them. I also help adults with possible affair repair, anxiety, depression, even alcohol or Substance Abuse (AOD certification). Through counseling, I help to identify your strengths and work on challenges. There is therapeutic work we can do together, to work towards enjoying life again.
