Couples Counseling Therapists in Texas

We are all a work in progress. Maybe you are… struggling with communication and conflict, feeling overwhelmed by grief and pain, looking to find fulfillment in your life, don't know who you or your partner is anymore, wondering how to address past issues/traumas with your partner, feeling burdened by life and choices, or want to foster more meaningful relationships... Maybe none of these fit you, but instead, you have other reasons for looking for a therapist that focuses on relationships. I am here to help you along that path.

I believe in a holistic approach, viewing therapy as a collaborative process between client and therapist. I am committed to providing a safe and supportive environment, so that clients can achieve their desired changes and develop more meaningful relationships. I have extensive training in working with couples, assisting them to repair or restore their relationship. I also work with couples who have decided to divorce, and who wish to heal from the loss of their relationship. I have been trained as a Level II EMDR therapist since 1995 and I have worked with survivors of trauma for over 20 years. I do not accept any insurance.

I see my role as a counselor as providing a supportive environment for each client to be able to address their areas of concern. I believe that each client is an expert in their own life and that they have the ability to grow and thrive. My areas of focus include depression, anxiety, PTSD, relational issues and couples counseling.

All the self help books in the world won't help if you don't know how to apply what you have learned. If you want me to tell you it's going to be ok, I can do that, but I would rather you know how to handle life when it's not ok. I am a solution focused therapist and my goal is to help you find the best quality of life, knowing in the end that most people are searching for love, peace, and happiness.

Relationships are hard. Only our closest loved ones, especially those we share a bed with, can stir up our most intense feelings of emotional pain, disappointment and shame. We often respond to these emotions with anger, withdraw, control or resistance which leads to conflict, emotional distance and the dreaded dead bedroom syndrome. Having disagreements in a relationship is expected. We all have our own ways of seeing, feeling and thinking about things including sex. The key to a healthy relationship is to be able to acknowledge the differences and communicate in a way that is genuine, supportive and understanding.

Hi! If you were to put all therapists on a spectrum, I wouldn't be on it because I would need my very own spectrum all to myself. If you get this, we are a match LOL! God blessed me with the ability to connect deeply & personally with people from all walks of life & with various presenting problems. I believe the therapeutic alliance & trust is the most important factor in the counseling relationship. Don't get me wrong, the alphabet soup after the name is highly important & speaks to the credentials & specialized training of your therapist, however, lack of connection blocks progress in healing.
