Licensed Clinical Social Worker, MSW, LICSWHi there! I'm a down-to-earth therapist in North Texas who work with adults struggling with post-traumatic stress, anxiety, grief and loss.

Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) is a mental health condition that's triggered by a traumatic, scary or dangerous event. PTSD can be caused by either witnessing or experiencing the trauma. Events that sometimes trigger PTSD include everything from sexual assault, war, and violence, to car accidents or other incidents that could cause loss of life. It is not at all uncommon for people who go through something traumatic to have temporary difficulty coping and acute symptoms, but with time, they usually get better. However, if the symptoms last longer than a month, get worse rather than better and affect your ability to function, you may be suffering from PTSD. Symptoms of PTSD may include severe anxiety, anger, nightmares, trouble sleeping, flashbacks to the event, frightening thoughts, avoidance of situations or places, feeling on edge and/or being easily startled. If you think you may be experiencing PTSD, reach out to one of TherapyDen’s specialists today to get help.

Sometimes you just need someone to confide in that “gets it.” I empower you and assist you to achieve whatever life changes or solutions you are looking for, while providing a comfortable, authentic and safe space. Life is too short to be ruled by anxiety or depression, hold onto anger, or let trauma control you. I want you to be able to take control of your life so that you can enjoy it to its fullest and be free from the emotional pain or stress that holds you back.

Being human is often tough. Sometimes we lose our way and can feel stuck and overwhelmed. Sometimes we would like to change parts of our lives or ourselves but don’t know how. Therapy can be an empowering way to promote healing, growth, and wellness. Often, we initially seek treatment to address a specific concern and then begin to uncover other areas of our lives in which we want to make meaningful change. My goal is for this process to feel supportive, affirming, and appropriately challenging.
