Life situations can often burden us leaving us feeling overwhelmed and hopeless which can contribute to increased anxiety and disturbance in sleeping patterns. My specialty revolves around individual and family systems therapy which includes a unique approach to couples therapy (marriage counseling), life transitions, children, adolesecents and family of origin issues. Through my continuing post graduate training I have developed a behavioral, relational, and psychdynamic psychotheraputic approach to assist in allivating these patterns by enhancing communication styles, negotiating skills and problem solving techniques.
As a trauma specialist, I work with individuals with PTSD and grief related issues. My work in the substance abuse field included clients both inpatient and outpatient and their families. I have continued that work in private practice; and am currently licensed in the state of Texas as a LCDC (licensed chemical dependence counselor)
We all struggle with difficult situations; some of us more then others. Together we can work towards healthier outcomes and stop the unhealthy ways we tend to deal with life when we are doing it alone. Reach out and call for an intake today. Let us help!
