Anxiety and depression therapists and psychiatrists in Grand Prairie, TX

Welcome! I am a health psychologist who is interested in helping people reach their maximum potential in their physical, mental, and spiritual health. I believe that counseling can promote self-efficacy, healing, peace, hope, and a sense of purpose. I believe that individuals are created wonderfully in body, mind, and spirit. In order to reach full potential of health, each domain must be addressed for whole body wellness. I practice with the intent of finding natural solutions to wellness.

I am a strong advocate for ending the stigma that surrounds mental health. Everyone needs counseling, yep... even me! Join me as I destigmatize counseling services one session at a time. As a previous school guidance counselor, I have experience providing counseling to teens. I have a peaked interest in psychoeducation; including but not limited to, coping skills, boundary setting, attachment styles, locus of control, self-esteem, cognitive distortions, core belief work and much more.

I have been in private practice for six years and my rich background in counseling includes over seventeen years as a school counselor in elementary, middle and high school. I enjoy working with children, teens and adults on pursuing treatment goals for counseling using positive solutions towards improved mental health. I am certified in EMDR therapy and I am a trauma informed therapist who also has been trained in Acceleration Resolution Therapy (ART) and Progressive Counting.

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker as well as a Registered Play Therapist. I have a background in education as well as social work.

I believe that healing is not a one size fits all process. Every person arrives with a unique story, a distinct set of strengths, and their own way of making meaning in the world. I honor that individuality as I provide a therapeutic space where clients feel seen, supported, and empowered to grow at a pace that feels authentic to them. I believe in helping people and not fixing them because people aren't broken.
