Trauma and PTSD therapists & psychiatrists in Corsicana, TX

Starting therapy can often make people feel nervous and unsure about what to expect. I understand how hard it is to trust a stranger with such personal thoughts and feelings. I have been working to help others create a safe and productive space to share and grow since 2013.

I am a Doctor of Social Work and Licensed Clinical Social Worker with training in trauma-informed care. I support individuals in building self-determination and addressing maladaptive thought patterns that contribute to anxiety and depression.

Hello! I am retired law enforcement and have over 35 years experience working with citizens and first responders in behavioral health crisis. I provide individual therapy for adults and specialize in crisis intervention. I believe people have the ability to guide their own path - they just need a map.

As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, I believe meaningful change begins with feeling seen, heard, and supported. I strive to create a comfortable and grounded space where clients can be themselves and move at their own pace. I have experience supporting individuals navigating anxiety, depression, life transitions, and substance use concerns. I bring warmth, care, and authenticity into the work we do together.

What was your path to becoming a mental health provider?

I always had a desire to understand people and didn't realize there was a profession centered around my curiosity until college. I was also very intrigued with trying to understand my emotions growing up and because I struggled, I developed a desire to help others through their life challenges. I started providing support services to families and volunteers through a mentoring agency, which later led to interning at a psychiatric outpatient facility, to working with foster children providing therapy and to also growing my private practice here with Alma working with adults and children.

What should someone know about working with you?

I believe I am relatable and open to the sharing of myself with the understanding and expectation that you will be entrusting your vulnerabilities with me in session. I will challenge your thoughts, your patterns and your assumptions, and I give homework routinely as an extension of our time together to keep you active and engaged until we meet again.

How do you continue learning and building new skills?

I am committed to being a life-long learner. I take courses and trainings annually, listen to and learn from seasoned clinicians and try to stay afloat of new groundbreaking research related to treatments and techniques surrounding mental health.

"Success for me, is helping others create the wellness they desire."

I believe everyone needs help from time to time.

I specialize in evening and weekend appointments. Later appointments are available, please request your needs.

I am a friendly goal-oriented therapist who believes strongly in positive self-reinforcement. I have a Master's degree from La Tech University with a background in private practice for over 20 years. I am Licensed in Louisiana and Texas as a professional counselor. I am also Licensed as a marriage and family therapist in Louisiana.

Professionally, I have spent a decade in education (five years as a classroom teacher and five years as a school counselor). This is my third year as a therapist outside of the school setting.

For my masters degree, I attended Texas State University in San Marcos, TX (Eat 'em up cats!). At Texas State, I completed my MA in Professional Counseling with two focuses: school counseling and clinical mental health.

As a former educator, the populations I support include adolescents, young adults, educators, parents/guardians, and caretakers.

I offer a compassionate, neurodiversity-affirming and LGBTQIA+ affirming space where you can show up as you are. I specialize in working with adults with ADHD and autism, including folks exploring late-in-life diagnosis, self-identification, or simply trying to understand themselves better. I’m also training in Gottman Method couples counseling and have extensive experience supporting polyamorous and ethically non-monogamous relationships, so relationship work here is inclusive, practical, and judgment-free.

I have 26 years of experience dealing with individuals, couples, families in therapy. We will work together to develop plans that are unique and right for you.
