About
I don’t yet know what has brought you to this search, but I am so happy you are taking this step to get the help you are looking for, and I would be honored to be part of your journey to peace and contentment. Life can be so very difficult at times, and we all need someone in our corner to truly hear our worries, concerns and experience and help guide us toward the healing and understanding we desperately seek.
I have been practicing for 17 years, I have spent time in domestic violence shelters, child placement facilities, contracted with child protective services and worked in private practice. I now have my own faith centered practice. I love integrating good science and faith to best serve each client to the fullest. I believe that for one to be their best self all areas of ones life integrate with the others to bring wholeness. Areas such as family life, social life, spiritual life, physical life, intellectual life and recreation.
I enjoy working with women of all ages, in all stages of their lives. Having gone through infertility struggles myself, I have a special understanding of the stresses, griefs and difficulties such a path brings, and I am happy to walk with clients through this confusing, emotional and difficult time.
My office is warm and welcoming and we work through your concerns at a pace your comfortable with. I’m happy to meet with you online (residents of the state of Texas), or if your in the area you are more than welcome to grab a coffee or tea and come sit on my couch and talk in person.
My Christian faith shapes who I am and how I view my role in helping others heal, process and embrace pain and joy, utilize forgiveness and understand who they are in Christ and that fits in this world. For clients that may include prayer, scriptures studies or other implementation but all are done only after discussing with the client what they are comfortable with integrating. I love working with all Christian denominations
If you’re not sure about therapy is a good fit for you or your family, please call or email. I am happy to speak with you free of charge to answer questions, address concerns and see if counseling with me is the best fit for you.
