About My Clients
I work with many clients going through many different mental and life concerns. I have a strong passion working with the LGBTQIA+ community! I enjoy the moment when I see in a session a client achieve that mental "breakthrough;" accepting themselves for who they are and who they want to be. It takes a lot of work but through mental guidance on my part and determination on my clients, I see change and satisfaction!
My Background and Approach
I am a virtual Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in the state of Texas working with clients experiencing depression, anxiety, gender and sexual discovery/acceptance, grief and loss, life transitions, difficulties in regulating emotions, and much more. Additionally, I am Gottman Method Level 1 trained in Relationship Counseling. I work with my couples on strengthening communication and connection, enhancing sexual/romantic intimacy, manage conflict as well as assist couples who are exploring ethical non-monogamy and polyamory. My therapeutic style is eclectic, meaning I take from multiple therapeutic modalities and incorporate them for each specific client need. The modalities I am currently most comfortable and knowledgeable in are Solution-Focused Brief Therapy, Gestalt Therapy, Client-Centered Therapy, Mindfulness, CBT, Narrative Therapy and Existential Therapy. I do not take insurance but can provide a statement or superbill as needed, as well as a sliding scale per request!
Why I am a Good Fit for You
My goal as your counselor is to provide you with the building blocks and skills needed to work through the day to day issues we face. It’s nice to have extra tools to add to your tool belt. I will assist you by providing you with questions and reflections to become introspective, insightful and mindful of who you are and what you want; as well as, challenge you to overcome undesired behaviors and increase desired ones. I utilize empathy and humor in my sessions to help build a strong therapeutic relationship with my clients. I am a person who loves to learn new things and build many interests and hobbies. This allows me to adapt to my client as best as I can and learn from them as much as they learn skills from me. Outside of counseling, you may find me gardening, knitting way too much, bird watching, and enjoying the company of my partner, two cats and dog :)
