Find a therapist in Texas — covered by insurance

With decades of experience, I am well-versed in many different modalities. No one approach works for everyone, so I built a large tool kit to have a broad range of tools available. Areas of expertise include individual, couples and family counseling, trauma recovery, anxiety, depression, special needs of gifted and talented, medical social work, impact of illness, traumatic brain injury, grief and bereavement, positive aging, geriatrics and end of life issues. Having been raised in a military family I enjoy working with our veterans, active duty personnel and their families.

I believe healing begins with feeling heard, understood, and supported. I strive to create a safe, welcoming, and nonjudgmental environment where clients feel empowered to be their authentic selves while working toward personal growth and emotional wellness.

With over 25 years of experience supporting children, adolescents, and families through counseling, education, and student wellness services, I bring a comprehensive understanding of emotional development, resilience, and the challenges individuals face throughout life.

I provide individual and group counseling, crisis intervention, assessments, and mental health support focused on helping clients develop effective coping strategies, strengthen resilience, and improve overall emotional well-being.

My areas of support include anxiety, stress management, emotional regulation, life transitions, social-emotional development, and navigating difficult seasons of life. My counseling approach is compassionate, collaborative, and strengths-based, intending to help each client recognize their strengths, build confidence, and feel supported throughout their healing journey.

Looking for a therapist who'll be honest with you — not just agreeable? I offer direct, compassionate care, all from the comfort of wherever you are. I'll validate what you're feeling when it needs to be heard, and gently challenge you when it's time to look at things differently. Using Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, we'll work together to reshape the narratives keeping you stuck and help you see your life through a new lens.

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with experience working with diverse populations in the arena of Mental Health. I worked with individuals with an array of concerns including multicultural issues, anxiety and depression struggles, family relationships, major life transitions, and stress management. I desire to help those that have experienced traumatic life events not allow it to define them.

I’ve been where you are. As someone in long-term recovery, I understand the challenges firsthand and bring both empathy and 11 years of professional counseling experience to support you in finding your own path and developing your strengths.
