About
I am a seasoned counselor that has a genuine passion for helping others improve their quality of life by identifying appropriate coping strategies, skills & techniques that can be used to decrease areas of concern. Evidenced based talk therapy & psycho-educational information are combined to best meet your needs.
My training & career experience spans across both education & mental health counseling. I use CBT, DBT, mindfulness and other effective modes to create an individualized plan for you.
I received 3 of my 4 degrees from Texas Tech University. I have a Master’s in Counseling and in Education, as well as a Doctorate in Educational Psychology. I hold 2 state licenses; community counseling & chemical dependency. I have worked in a variety of settings including; private practice, clinics for groups, integrated health care clinics, state facilities, university campuses and remotely. Through all these different modes of counseling, I have discovered that my calm personality, professional presentation and genuineness have helped me provide a confidential, safe place where people can be themselves and share their thoughts, feelings & concerns without feeling judged. No matter what the setting or population is, I have found that compassionate caring, active listening, & supportive encouragement are important qualities of a counselor. I am available for appointments.
