Let's be real, sometimes life gets in the way of living! There are just time when life is not always the way we want or thought it would be.

People keep saying that you are so strong, but you don't want to be strong and you definitely don’t feel strong. You know you have people around you that love you and also you feel alone. You want to believe that you’ll find yourself again. If you’re losing hope that you can manage all the things in your life, counseling can help!

I have over 20 years experience working with adolescents and enjoy working with this age group. I see ages 14 years through the lifespan in-person or virtually.

I am trained in EMDR, a therapeutic treatment for trauma. I offer EMDR therapy to any clients, however, specifically for women who have experienced trauma and distress from a breast cancer journey. As a survivor, I know the emotional & physical toll chronic illness and treatment can take on an individual.

Therapist

I earned my Master of Science in Social Work at the University of Texas at Arlington in 2003. I had the privilege of starting in the field of sexual abuse/violence, which began my real-life education. I've continued my study of trauma, and in family dynamics. This continues to shape my growth. I have years of experience working in psychiatric hospitals with those struggling with severe mental illness. The one thing that I've learned and want to share is this: people can (and do!) get better.

Happy patient looking away

Find the right therapist for you

Headway makes it easy to find support for your mental health — from finding the right provider, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in Allen

Searching for therapists in Allen starts with knowing what kind of support you want from care. You may be looking for help with anxiety, depression, ADHD, relationship challenges, grief, or major life changes. As you compare options for therapy in Allen, TX, look for a therapist whose listed specialties, approach, and experience match your needs. Provider bios can also show whether a therapist uses approaches like cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, trauma-informed care, or other methods that may fit what you want to work on.

Allen has a smaller local therapy market than nearby Dallas or Plano, so the right match may not be limited to an office close to home. Virtual appointments can expand your options while still connecting you with a therapist licensed in Texas. As you narrow your search, consider appointment availability, whether the therapist is accepting new patients, session format, and whether a free phone consultation is offered. Reading profiles before booking can help you understand each therapist’s communication style, focus areas, and what a first session may look like.

Therapy in Allen can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and understand what you may pay before care begins. Headway helps you search for Allen counselors and therapists who match your preferences, review detailed bios, check your estimated out-of-pocket cost, and book directly when you’re ready.
