Calm: Counseling for Anger and Lifeskills Management
Dealing with Anxiety, Mood Disorders, Substance Abuse, Relationship Issues, Trauma or Recovery from Narcissistic Abuse? I am here to help. I offer both in-person and telehealth appointments. My office is conveniently located near Frankford and the Dallas North Tollway. I am affiliated with Curis Functional Health. If I am not the right fit, we have many wonderful providers with various specialties who are also available.
I also offer a 12 week anger resolution group (both online and in-person). This program focuses on teaching new skills to better manage the anger response, but more importantly helps clients identify underlying issues which contribute to anger. By addressing these, clients get angry less often and with less intensity. This is an on-going group so clients may start at anytime.

Bio
I have been in private practice for over 20 years. I am an LPC Supervisor and have worked with interns for many years helping them gain the clinical experience they need to be fully licensed clinicians.
I have a special passion for working with clients and helping them identify and heal from Narcissistic Abuse. I have trained many therapists to be able to identify the signs of this insidious form of emotional abuse and provided them with a road map for the healing process.
I am the co-author of the Books of Hope and Healing Series and I am a National Speaker on a variety of topics.
