I help people deal with the emotional pain experienced during, and after a loss. I work side-by-side with my clients, giving them a safe place to heal and grow. What's causing you to grieve? Many people require support, and assistance in coping with life's many twists and turns. Friends and family may not always have the patience, or understanding to help. Allow me to work with you and assist you through your pain. Whether it's a death, divorce, or other type of loss, you do not have to suffer in silence. Phone sessions are also available. Call Me. I will help you enjoy your life again. Whether we decide on Traditional Therapy, or Hypnotherapy, you will be free to express your feelings and concerns, and heal in a non-judgmental and safe environment. I also have a strong Premarital and Couple's Counseling Program with evening and weekend hours.

Choosing a psychologist can be stressful, confusing, and frightening. Will she be able help us? How long will it take? What do I look for? My approach to psychotherapy is a collaborative effort where you and I work on mutually agreed upon goals. We work to solve specific problems within a specific time frame. After carefully assessing the present concerns, we explore the problems within the context of family dynamics and medical history. We then identify goals and agree on ways to accomplish them. This problem-solving, time-limited approach enables you to identify your strengths, focus on the problems, attain your goals, and succeed in your treatment. This process does not have to take forever. I look forward to working with you.

Relationship conflict? Has trust been broken? Are you considering ending your relationship? Do you feel that your partner is no longer the person you fell in love with? Are you both caught in a vicious cycle repeating the same negative interactions over and over and over. Let me help you heal your relationship and move forward. Let me help you find answers to the questions you have about your relationship. Let me help you increase respect, trust, friendship, passion and intimacy with your partner. Did you know that techniques used 15 years ago (and sadly by some therapists today) have actually been shown in research to be more likely to split couples apart than unite them??? When you make the decision to spend your time and money on counseling, you want it to work!!! That's why I use approaches by Dr. Gottman and Sue Johnson created from over 20 years of research with real couples. It allows me to provide counseling in a way than most couples find refreshingly different and more interactive than they imagined.

Suffering from anxiety, depression or stress can prevent you from finding enjoyment in daily life, as well as hinder the discovery of your true potential. I believe that the therapeutic relationship is a unique social connection that allows individuals a safe space to explore their past, adjust their present, and plan for their future. My counseling approach is cognitive behavioral which can help promote understanding of negative thinking and enhance the ability to change behavior. I encourage "team care" and am therefore willing to collaborate with physicians and psychiatrists to maximize client health outcomes.

Relationships are the cornerstone of a happy and successful life. Depression, anxiety, and anger can disrupt your ability to form and sustain healthy relationships with others and with yourself. The ways you choose to cope with and react to your strong and stressful emotions affect your sense of well-being and self-esteem, which naturally affect your ability to feel effective in your work and social life. I provide a supportive therapeutic environment in which you can explore your own ability to relate to others and to gain a greater understanding of yourself. I work well with older adolescents, young adults and couples who struggle with identity, family, communication problems, and coping abilities. Often, we will explore substance use, sexuality, and verbal/physical aggression. Together, we will explore the foundations for these behaviors and work to create the positive change you desire. I do my best to create a safe space that allows for the development of trust and confidence in the therapeutic relationship. My client's comfort is of utmost importance; I want you to feel supported as we begin to explore your inner world and the world of your relationships.

Today you are one step closer to a new you where you feel empowered and on a positive path to growth and well-being. As a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC), National Certified Counselor (NCC), and a Board Certified Professional Counselor (BCPC) my goal is to help you uncover your true potential and lead a life that is worth celebrating. While we can't change difficult situations of the past, we can work together to better understand and resolve challenges in your life that have stemmed from those difficult past experiences. I find that once my clients expand their self-awareness, develop a deeper insight, and find the true meaning and purpose of the events in their lives, they often times create new tools and coping mechanisms that better enable them to cope with difficult situations. By applying complementary therapy approaches and techniques, such as cognitive-behavioral therapy, solution-focused therapy, individual psychology, and family system models we will unearth long-standing behavior patterns or negative perceptions that may be holding you, your family and your children back from experiencing a more fulfilling and meaningful life. If you're looking for extra support and guidance through a challenging situation or you're just ready to move in a new direction in your life, I look forward to working with you to achieve your goals. lease call or email me for an individual, couples or family therapy consultation today. Doing nothing about what is bothering you, will not make it go away. Help is only a click or phone call away.

I have a small private practice in Dallas, just off of the tollway and Trinity Mills. I deliberately keep it small so that I can truly devote myself to the clients that I have. I am selective about who I take as therapy patients and coaching clients. I only work with people who are really committed to the process of their work. You can go at your own pace and in your own direction when you work with me. However, I have found that clients who attend therapy regularly and who commit to doing between-session work are the onces who are most successful. In our initial meeting, we will get to know each other and see if this is the right type of therapy for you. You can assess whether you think I would be the right therapist for you, and I will tell you honestly whether I think I am the right one to help you. If it is a match, I will be delighted to be a part of your journey. The type of therapies that I'm specialized in doing are called Rational Emotive Behavioral Therapy and Cogntive Behavioral Therapy. You can visit my Dallas REBT CBT Meetup Group, which is a low cost psycho-educational group that I run monthly, during which I talk about REBT and CBT topics. You can also visit my other group: The Dallas Club Fearless Meetup Group, which is another low cost monthly group. I am also always gathering names of people who are interested in participating in a psychotherapy group at my office. Psychotherapy groups focus on your specific psychological needs, whereas the meetup groups are focused on topics and are not therapy groups. **Please note: at this time, I don't accept insurance. I can provide you with an insurance receipt for you to file upon payment. Please check with your provider to see if you have benefits to include out of network reimbursement directly to you.
