Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC), Texas — Since 1983

Feeling stuck, stressed, or unsure about what’s next? I work with adults and couples to reduce anxiety, improve focus, and move forward with greater confidence and clarity.

If you’re feeling overwhelmed, dealing with anxiety or depression, or going through a major life change, you don’t have to handle it alone. I work with adults and couples who want to regain stability, clarity, and a sense of direction. Whether you’re facing stress, loss, health concerns, relationship difficulties, or feeling stuck, therapy can help you move forward. Some clients also come in because they feel tied to constant phone or social media use and want better balance. My goal is to help you feel better, think more clearly, and strengthen both your life and your relationships.

I work with adults and couples facing life transitions such as career changes, retirement, or shifts in relationships. I also help those dealing with anxiety, depression, grief, complex relationship issues, and challenges with focus and organization, including ADHD.

My approach is grounded in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and existential therapy. CBT helps identify and change patterns of thinking and behavior that add to stress, while existential therapy focuses on meaning and purpose.
