There are times in our lives when we are faced with difficult situations, unexpected losses, or unresolved issues and need someone to lean on in order to make it through.  My privilege is to walk with you as you go through this journey while instilling hope and optimism in a safe, nonjudgmental, and supportive environment to facilitate healing, positive change, and personal growth.
                  
My orientation is mainly Cognitive-Behavioral. This is based on the belief that our thoughts and our beliefs guide our actions and shape our emotions.  The primary focus of the sessions will be on the present, while recognizing that past events and experiences have a great impact on our life today. I believe that though we cannot change the past, we can change how we let the past affect us today and tomorrow.
 
I received a Masters degree in Counseling from Northwestern State University in 2005 and a Bachelor’s degree in Human Services.
 
Specialties include:
Adolescent Issues
Life Transitions
Relationship Issues
Divorce/Separation
Grief and Loss
Support Groups

Counseling sessions also provided in Spanish.
