My primary aim as a therapist is to help those experiencing depression or anxiety work through their symptoms to experience more fulfillment and meaning in their lives. I earned a Masters's degree in Psychology from the University of Dallas where I was trained in psychodynamic and existential approaches to therapy. Past work experience includes several roles at a behavioral health hospital and as an individual therapist in private practice and community organization settings.
I will work with you to develop a deeper understanding of yourself through an open exploration of your experience. This allows you to "put the pieces together" coherently and meaningfully. Treatment often involves noticing patterns that seem to get in the way of becoming the person you want to be or the life you want to live. As you gain deeper understanding of yourself, you can create the space necessary to develop new patterns and achieve more fulfillment in your life.
I aim to create an exploratory environment where you can understand yourself more deeply and gain practical tools to help you overcome your symptoms and experience more fulfillment in your life.
