Find a therapist in Texas — covered by insurance

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC), licensed in the State of Texas and Washington, a National Certified Counselor (NBCC) and a Board-Certified Counselor (BCCC) recognized by the National Association of Christian Counselors (NACC). I started out as a Teacher in Inner and Outer London schools in the United Kingdom working with children, adolescents, and their families. I am experienced in working with clients from all faith/no faith background, comprising of children, adolescents, adults, and their families.

I strive to provide an open and encouraging place for my clients to explore the challenges in their daily lives. I look forward to serving those who are searching for ways to empower themselves. Counseling is journey of self discovery. Through it you can learn the skills to face life’s challenges and I’m here to help you.

I graduated with a BS in Education from Texas A&M in 1970 and Graduated from University of Houston/Clear Lake in 1990 with a Master's Degree in Counseling. I taught in the first Federally Funded Kindergarten program for economically deprived children in Texas. I taught kindergarten until 1989 when I became an elementary school counselor until retiring from the school system. I worked in an agency for one year before establishing my private practice. I now only work remotely. I trained in Heart Math, a medical tool to help calm the brain. I like to work with clients to minimize their negative thinking and shift to positive consciousness, using the writings of Dr. David Hawkins.

As your potential therapist, I view my role in your life as a collaborative one. We often hold the answers to our problems; I help you bring them to light. To clients, I refer to it as being your eyes while you struggle to see. Over the years, I’ve discovered a love for working with adolescents, domestic violence victims, and trauma survivors. I believe my empathy and life experiences have morphed me into the therapist I am today. Whatever you may be struggling with today, I congratulate you on the first step: listening to your body and seeking professional help.

Several factors go into finding a right-fit therapist for you. Research suggests that a strong therapeutic alliance results in more positive treatment outcomes. I encourage you to schedule a phone consultation with myself or other potential therapists. Choosing someone you feel comfortable with is your second and most important step.

The reality is, we have ONE life, why not live it fully? I believe challenges help us grow. You and only you are the key holder to your happiness. Whether you lost it or don’t know what to do with it; our work together will help you find it!

If you are carrying grief, trauma, or navigating a major life transition, you may feel overwhelmed, stuck, or unsure how to move forward. Experiences such as loss, divorce, infertility, or other unexpected changes can deeply impact your sense of stability and alters your identity.

I bring over two decades of experience working in a variety of clinical settings. My background includes serving as a probation officer, directing three partial hospitalization programs, working in an inpatient psychiatric facility, and building a private practice. These experiences have given me a broad and practical understanding of how people struggle—and more importantly, how they heal.

I hold a Master of Education in Counseling and Guidance and have been a Licensed Professional Counselor since 2001. I specialize in trauma and grief, using EMDR as my primary modality, along with CBT and other evidence-based approaches. I also value and incorporate principles from 12-step recovery when working with clients or loved ones living with addiction.

I work with adults facing trauma, grief, and life transitions, including those who are high-functioning but internally struggling. Regardless of what brought you here, therapy can be a place to gain clarity, build resilience, and reconnect with yourself.
