My personal faith is integrated in my counseling process which is from a Biblical worldview. I firmly believes that our most pure form of hope is found in Christ.
Be assured that I will work with you with respect and humility, no matter your religious, ethnic or cultural background.
I approach counseling from a cognitive-behavioral perspective and surmise that many behaviors are a direct result of thoughts, emotions and environmental influences.
I received a Master of Arts degree in Psychology from the University of Houston-Clear Lake in 1992 and in 1999 became a Licensed Professional Counselor in the state of Texas with supervisor status in 2005. I also have an intermediate certification in a specialized attachment focused therapy, Theraplay.
Though I work with clients across the lifespan, I have extensive experience working with children, as young as 3 years, and adolescents struggling with various behavioral and emotional issues. I enjoy working with young adults as they navigate the transition into adulthood. My work with adults includes parenting, mild to moderate emotional health concerns and general life issues. I also provide consultation/ professional development trainings for and seminar presentations to daycares, churches and schools.
