Great to meet you!

I am a Christian who believes in prayer and the Bible.

I offer spiritual integration which means assisting clients to utilize their Faith with a Bible based perspective, and I also pray for my clients at the end of our session, if desired.

My personal Faith has been a vital component of my personal and professional life.

Jesus understands our emotional and physical stressors and limitations. He is The Great Physician and our Healer.

I am accepting new clients who are Texas residents ages 18 + for individual virtual therapy sessions.

I have 25 years experience as a psychotherapist in private practice, and online virtual therapy.

My Online Office Hours are Tuesday 10 am - 3pm CST

Thursday 6 am - 3 pm CST.

My private pay rate is $95 per session.

Please email me directly for more questions, concerns. or for more information [email protected]

My approach to therapy

My client centered approach & pace is customized to individual needs.

I offer unconditional positive regard to clients with a holistic approach of wellness in body and mind.

Therapeutic dialogue, or talk therapy is a positive approach to processing thoughts & emotions.

I am patient, empathic, and I am excellent at active listening.

What you can expect from me

I am here to assist my clients to identify and process emotions, feelings, and situations.

I am very patient and I understand that therapy can not be rushed.

It is important to develop a therapeutic bond between therapist and client.

I want my clients to feel safe, heard, and understood every session.

I want my clients to feel lighter and brighter after talk therapy sessions.
