Unfolding Collective

My ideal client is ready to get the root of the challenges they find themselves facing day to day. Maybe you’ve tried other therapies in the past, or you’re a helping professional yourself - I typically work with people who have tried different approaches with no luck, and they’re ready to move toward healing in a measurable way. After working with me, clients tend to understand their systems in a new way, and are able to have more compassion for themselves and others, while still holding their boundaries with self respect. I believe therapy is about building a trusting relationship that leads toward healing and wholeness. I use an eclectic approach, meaning I engage different types of therapy depending on what I believe will be most helpful given your specific circumstances. I am EMDR trained and Level One IFS trained. In my experience these modalities work well to heal wounds at the core, allowing you to resume a life you love to live. Rather than focusing on behavior, these therapies take advantage of neuroplasticity, and focus on the protective nature behind your behaviors. They work by creating new neural pathways in the brain, leading to more long lasting changes in your life. I am Enneagram informed, with over 100 hours of training, and can help you use the Enneagram as a tool to free yourself from your protective personality structure, as well as bring compassion, curiosity, and understanding to yourself and others. I have my undergraduate degree in Sociology with a minor in English from Texas Woman’s University in Denton, TX and my Masters in Social Work from the University of Texas at Arlington.I view my role in the relationship as someone who provides support, shares tools I’ve gained in my training, and ultimately encourages you to trust yourself. I hope I have the privilege of joining you on your journey! If you're ready to create lasting change in your life, I'd love to connect and see if we may be a good match.
