Therapy can be scary. The thought of telling some stranger “My business" can be overwhelming! I hear you and you are certainly not alone! As a Licensed Professional Counselor-Supervisor in Houston, TX, I have has worked in a variety of different sectors in the mental health industry for over 25 years providing counseling to adults including individual and couples.
I conduct individual and couples therapy to include pre-marital, marital, divorce discernment and/or divorce transition. My approach is integrative using a blend of evidenced based practices such as Gottman Method, Developmental Theory, ACT, CBT, Mindfulness practices as well as Existential theories. I also ascribes to a neuro-cognitive behavioral therapy approach blending both the ways in which neuroscience and brain functioning intersects with cognitive and behavioral responses to trauma
There is nothing "wrong with you," moreover, "something(s) have happened to you" and you developed adaptive strategies to function... that's brilliant! However, those strategies may not be as effective right now. I endeavor to help you learn how to use those brilliant strategies as a tool to heal from the impact of trauma and build healthier, sustainable relationships.
