TEXAS RESIDENTS: WELCOME TO MY PRACTICE! I support teens 16+ and adults experiencing anxiety, depression, relationship/family issues, women's issues, chronic stress, and more. WHO I AM I am a Licensed Professional Counselor with experience spanning working with individuals from as young as five years old to adults, providing me with a diverse understanding of various needs and challenges. My clients struggle with navigating feelings of anxiety or depression, the stress of parenthood, or wishing interactions with others felt smoother. I'm here to help you take control and build a brighter future. We'll tackle your challenges head-on, creating a path forward that feels right for you. WHY CHOOSE TELEHEALTH? Is your schedule packed? Living in a small town or rural area? In today’s fast-paced world, accessing mental health services can often feel overwhelming. Telehealth offers a flexible and accessible solution, allowing you to connect with a professional from the comfort of your own home. To begin, all you need is a reliable internet connection that supports audio and video. SERVICES OFFERED I offer telehealth counseling services aimed at addressing various mental health concerns. Some of the areas I commonly work with include: ANXIETY AND STRESS MANAGEMENT: Life can be full of challenges that lead to increased anxiety and stress. I provide strategies and tools to help you manage these feelings effectively, allowing you to regain control over your life. DEPRESSION: If you’re experiencing persistent feelings of sadness or hopelessness, I can help you explore these emotions and develop coping mechanisms to improve your quality of life. RELATIONSHIP ISSUES: Whether you’re dealing with family conflicts, romantic challenges, or friendships, I offer guidance to help you navigate these complex dynamics. LIFE TRANSITIONS: Major life changes, such as moving to a new city, starting college, or experiencing a career change, can be daunting. I provide support during these transitions, helping you adapt and thrive. PARENTHOOD: I understand that while incredibly rewarding, parenthood often comes with its unique set of challenges. My goal is to provide a supportive and understanding space where parents can explore these difficulties and develop practical strategies to navigate them. NAVIGATING THE ROLLERCOASTER OF NEW PARENTHOOD The transition to parenthood can be overwhelming. I support new parents (moms, dads, and non-birthing partners) through issues like postpartum depression and anxiety, sleep deprivation, identity shifts, and adjusting to new routines. We can work on coping skills, stress management, and building a strong support system. COPING WITH TODDLER TANTRUMS AND CHILD BEHAVIOR Parenting young children brings its own set of hurdles, from managing meltdowns to establishing healthy boundaries. We can explore effective communication techniques, consistent discipline strategies, and understanding the developmental stages of your child to foster a more harmonious home environment. PARENTING TEENS AND ADOLESCENTS The teenage years often bring new challenges related to independence, communication breakdowns, peer pressure, and identity formation. I help parents strengthen their connection with their teens, improve conflict resolution skills, and establish healthy boundaries that promote both autonomy and safety.
