I’m a licensed psychotherapist in Waco, Texas. I’ve been Licensed by the Texas State Board of Licensed Professional Counselors since 1990, have been in private practice for close to 25 years, and worked in psychiatric hospitals prior to opening my own office.

I work with children in play therapy and cognitive behavioral therapy, and I enjoy working with teenagers and adults in various methods of counseling practice. Working with parents to help resolve behavioral and emotional problems with their children is also major part of my practice.

I also work with diagnosis and treatment of Major Depression, Anxiety, Eating Disorders, and Borderline Personality Disorders. I have a sub-specialty in traumatic injury and developmental trauma resolution. My practice consists of individual therapy, group therapy, outpatient intensive 3-day therapies, training workshops, and seminars.

In addition to my graduate school training I am also trained as a Somatic Therapy Practitioner and am trained in Pia Mellody’s Post Induction Therapy and am a “Pia Trained” therapist. The treatment modality used to treat Borderline Personality Disorder is Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, developed by Marsha Linehan. These and other details of my work is explained on this website.

This is an exciting era in the world of psychotherapy treatment and I look forward to the ways we continue to work with the brain science and research to treat emotional difficulties and mental disorders.

Certified as a Somatic Experiencing Practictioner Somatic Psychotherapy.

My practice provides psychological services for individuals, children, adolescents couples, and families. I also facilitate group therapy, seminars, and workshops.

Children’s reactions to stressful life circumstances range from mild and short-lived to severe and long lasting. When a child’s problems do not resolve within a reasonable time-frame psychological intervention is recommended.

Therapy offers children the opportunity to identify, discuss and understand problems and to develop necessary coping skills. 

Therapy also provides the opportunity to address parental concerns, educate parents regarding their child’s unique needs, and assist them in meeting these needs in an appropriate, effective fashion.

Finally, it is important to recognize that without appropriate and timely treatment a child’s problems may become severe and lead to more serious, long-lasting difficulties.

We consider parental involvement to be a crucial component of every child’s treatment. From the first session, parents are relied upon for information concerning their child’s development, behavior, relationships, and habits and they are closely consulted regarding the goals of treatment.

We view parents as our partners in the treatment process and rely upon them to provide critical feedback regarding the effectiveness of our interventions as they are developed and implemented.

Talking to family, friends, coworkers can is part of our social norm. To feel the support of a sympathetic listener helps us feel cared for and connected. Programs at church, Alcoholic’s Anonymous or other self-help groups can be incredibly helpful in addressing problems.

However, there are times when you need more than advice from a good friend, mutual support from family or a caring shoulder of a good listener. However, when these ways of coping don’t work, it may be time to seek professional help.

But you know you need professional help when nothing has worked, when you feel depressed, anxious or agitated, when you are unable to carry out your obligations and you are unable to function in your normal way. Seeking an experienced professional who is licensed and credentialed is of paramount importance.

No matter the cause, distress in a relationship can create undue stress, tension, sadness, worry, fear and other problems. You may hope your relationship troubles just go away on their own. But left to fester, a bad relationship may only worsen and eventually lead to physical or psychological problems, such as depression. A bad relationship can also create problems on the job and affect other family members or even friendships as people feel compelled to take sides.

Here are typical issues that marriage counseling can help you and a spouse or partner cope with:

  • Infidelity
  • Divorce
  • Substance abuse
  • Physical or mental conditions
  • Same-sex relationship issues
  • Cultural clashes
  • Finances
  • Unemployment
  • Blended families
  • Communication problems
  • Sexual difficulties
  • Conflicts about child rearing
  • Infertility
  • Anger
  • Changing roles, such as retirement
  • Domestic violence

Marriage counseling may also be of help in cases of domestic violence or abuse. However, if the abuse or violence has escalated to the point that you fear for your safety or that of your children, consider contacting the police or a local shelter or crisis center. Don’t rely on marriage counseling alone to resolve these problems.

Adult couples, partners or married couples. 

You don’t need to have a troubled relationship to seek therapy. Marriage counseling can also help couples who simply want to strengthen their bonds and gain a better understanding of each other.

Marriage counseling can also help couples who plan to get married. This pre-marriage counseling can help you achieve a deeper understanding of each other and iron out differences before a union is sealed.
