About

Greetings from Texas! I am a Licensed Professional Counselor and Licensed Specialist in School Psychology. I have recently had the opportunity (and joy) to work with adults aged 55+ through an online counseling service. Until now, the majority of my experience has been working with families involved with CPS and providing counseling to children in the public school setting. My time with the older adult population has been informative, enjoyable, and opened a new area of interest I did not know existed for me. While I am still learning about the needs of adults experiencing a later phase of life,  I feel as if I work from a framework that is beneficial despite age and experiences.

Cognitive -behavioral therapy is the theoretical framework from which I choose to practice. In a nutshell, it allows the client to have control over their own thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. It provides a simple, practical, and effective foundation for change. You learn tools and techniques that can be utilized far beyond time in counseling. It has been shown through research to be effective for a range of disorders including anxiety, depression, and insomnia. This approach also allows the client and therapist to work as a collaborative team. I look forward to working together to enrich your life as you enter a new phase of life.
