Partner 1: “I reach for you, but it feels like you’re already gone.” I’m left wondering if I matter to you at all.” Partner 2: “When you come close, I feel the pressure to be perfect, so I pull back to protect us both.” These unspoken messages leave couples lonely and stuck. I help break this anxious–avoidant cycle so partners feel safe, seen, and deeply connected again.
“I don’t understand why I want closeness so badly, yet feel disappointed when I have it. Why do I feel lonelier than others, even when I’m not alone?” Or: “I care deeply, but people say I’m distant or hard to read. When emotions get intense, I shut down—not because I don’t feel, but because it feels like too much.”
These quiet tensions live beneath awareness for many people. Longing and self-protection pull in opposite directions. Needs feel confusing, emotions feel overwhelming or unsafe, and core beliefs quietly form—I’m too much, I’m not enough, connection costs me something.
I help people loosen these patterns, reconcile the Self with more truthful and adaptive beliefs, and move toward self-acceptance and interdependence—where connection no longer threatens safety, but deepens it.
After nine years serving in the U.S. Coast Guard, I realized my deepest fulfillment came not from fixing systems, but from walking with people. Leaving the military was not a departure from service—it was a continuation of it. I pursued social work and theological training to better support people in their most important relationships. Today, my practice is devoted to couples counseling and trauma-informed care. Drawing primarily from Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) and EMDR, I help couples slow conflict, understand what drives disconnection, and emotional safety. As a veteran and seminary-trained therapist, I bring structure, compassion, and steady hope—meeting clients with respect, grace, and a belief in lasting change.
I am dedicated to providing compassionate, bilingual (English / Native Spanish) psychotherapy to clients who are navigating life’s most challenging moments, especially those dealing with anxiety, depression, major life transitions (such as cancer diagnosis, grief, trauma). I specialize in working with individuals and their families, supporting them in navigating emotions, distress, and resilience during challenging times. I provide a safe, supportive space where individuals can process emotions, develop coping skills, and find strength in the face of adversity.


Headway makes it easier to find family-focused support — from finding the right provider, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.
Finding family therapists in Arlington starts with understanding what your family wants help navigating. Family therapy may support concerns like parenting conflict, adolescent struggles, blended family dynamics, or communication across generations. Family therapists are trained to work with the family system, rather than focusing only on one person. As you compare Arlington therapists, look for listed experience with your specific concerns, such as parent-child relationships, family transitions, or conflict patterns.
In a mid-size city like Arlington, your search may include therapists with local offices and therapists who offer virtual appointments across Texas. In-person care may be a good fit if location, privacy, or meeting together in the same room matters to your family. Virtual care can also expand your options, especially when schedules, school, work, or transportation make office visits harder to coordinate. Before booking, review each therapist’s bio for appointment availability, session format, and how they structure family work. Some sessions may include the full family, while others may include parents, caregivers, siblings, or individual family members.
Counseling in Arlington, Texas can be a significant cost without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs. Headway helps you compare family therapists in Arlington who are accepting new patients, see whether a therapist accepts your plan, and review estimated out-of-pocket costs before you book. You can read bios, check availability, and book directly when you’re ready.
If anyone in your family is experiencing or worried about abuse, threats, or coercion, joint family or couples therapy usually isn't the right starting point — individual support is safer. The Childhelp National Child Abuse Hotline (1-800-422-4453) and National Domestic Violence Hotline (1-800-799-7233, or text START to 88788\) can help you think through next steps.
