Strengthening Relationships, Nurturing Everlasting Joy
Welcome! I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapy Associate in Texas, who is direct, supportive, and gets to the heart of the issues rather than just staying at the surface. I am invested in your journey towards creating successful and fulfilling relationships.
Our relationship with ourselves forms the foundation upon which all other aspects of our lives are built. Whether it’s achieving success in our careers, maintaining fulfilling relationships, or nurturing happy marriages, it all stems from how we perceive and treat ourselves. Through interactions with others, we gain insights into our strengths, weaknesses, patterns, and beliefs. By paying attention to our reactions and responses within relationships, we uncover opportunities for self-reflection and personal growth. Thus, relationships become valuable tools for self-discovery and deepening our understanding of ourselves.
I’m here to guide you in uncovering your inner maps and exploring the endless possibilities of creating the life you envision for yourself. Together, let’s embark on a transformative journey toward a future filled with thriving relationships and personal fulfillment.
I believe in a non-pathologizing approach to therapy, viewing symptoms as adaptive responses rather than inherent flaws. Our minds and bodies develop these responses as a means of self-protection. Even the parts of ourselves that cause distress or interfere with relationships are ultimately attempting to safeguard us.
Central to my therapeutic philosophy is the integration of mind and body. I draw on my background as a Registered Yoga Teacher (RYT 200) to emphasize the importance of reconnecting with the body, particularly in the context of trauma where dissociation may have occurred. By fostering this mind-body connection, we can work towards healing and resilience. I use yoga in couple’s work to enhance physical and emotional intimacy.
I am drawn to a range of modalities, including Sex Therapy, the Gorman Method, Internal Family Systems (IFS), Emotionally Focused Therapy, Narrative Therapy, and Mindfulness. However, I recognize that each client’s journey is unique, and I collaborate with them to determine the most suitable approach.
As a multicultural therapist, I honor diversity and tailor my approach to meet the individual needs of each client. I am committed to creating a safe and validating space where you feel supported and empowered. I firmly believe in your resilience and am dedicated to helping you navigate your path towards healing and growth.
