I offer traditional therapy sessions in my office setting or telehealth sessions via video conferencing for those who are unable to travel or prefer the comfort of their own home.

Education And Qualifications
Having explored my areas of expertise as an LPC, I now want to discuss my education and qualifications. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in the state of Texas. I earned my Master of Science degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Colorado State University in 2015. My studies included courses such as Human Development, Psychopathology, and Group Processes.
In addition to my formal education, I have completed over 1,000 hours of clinical work related to counseling and mental health. This includes individual counseling sessions with clients ranging in age from 5-80 years old. I have also facilitated various types of therapy groups and provided crisis intervention services when needed. Additionally, I completed several practicums during my master's program that enabled me to gain experience working with non-profit organizations and community agencies.
I am dedicated to providing high quality care using evidence-based practices while maintaining ethical standards set forth by the American Counseling Association (ACA). To ensure that I stay current on developments in the field, I regularly attend conferences and workshops related to psychology and mental health counseling. My commitment to ongoing professional development is evident in the number of certifications that I've obtained throughout my career, such as Certified Rehabilitation Counselor (CRC) and National Certified Counselor (NCC).

Through these organizations, I have earned various certifications, including Certified Clinical Mental Health Counselor (CCMHC), National Certified Counselor (NCC), and Approved Clinical Supervisor (ACS).
My clinical experience ranges from working with juveniles to adults who are experiencing depression, anxiety, substance abuse, trauma and relationship issues.

Types Of Therapy Offered
Moving on from my professional memberships and certifications, I offer a variety of therapies to help address the needs of my clients. These include individual therapy, family therapy, couples counseling, group therapy, and online therapy.
Individual therapy is a one-on-one session that focuses on gaining insight into personal issues and challenges. Together we will work to identify goals and develop an action plan to help you reach these goals. I strive to create a safe environment for all of my clients so they feel comfortable discussing sensitive topics.
Family therapy is designed to improve communication between family members and enhance understanding among them. During sessions, I might assign tasks or activities related to the family's issues in order to gain insights into the dynamics that exist within the family system. This type of therapy can also be beneficial when children are struggling with behavioral issues or dealing with changes in their lives such as divorce or death in the family.
Couples counseling is aimed at helping couples better understand each other and strengthen their relationship. We will discuss topics such as trust, communication styles, expectations for the relationship, etc., so that both partners can gain insight into one another’s feelings and beliefs about the relationship. It requires patience and dedication from both partners in order for it to be successful.
Overall, I strive to provide quality services tailored specifically to each client's unique needs. Whether it’s individual or couple’s counseling, I am committed to helping my clients make positive life changes through evidence-based practices rooted in compassion and respect.

Testimonials
Moving on from my contact information, I'd like to present a few testimonials from clients I have worked with in the past. These reviews are meant to give potential clients an idea of the type of services they can expect to receive when working with me.
The first client was a young adult who was struggling with anxiety and depression. After several sessions, they reported feeling more connected to their own emotions and having greater insight into why they were feeling the way they were. They also felt that they had more control over their own mental health and were able to manage their symptoms better.
Another client had difficulty managing their anger and often found themselves in difficult situations as a result of it. After working together for some time, this client found that not only could they manage their anger better but also that it became easier for them to communicate more effectively in other areas of life as well.
