Our current and past life circumstances can often leave us with feelings of stress, anxiety, and sadness. These emotions can be confusing and difficult to manage and process. My goal is to come alongside clients to reach personal goals, using warmth, understanding, and acceptance. I will work with you, with you in the driver’s seat, to set goals, explore and gain understanding of yourself, process your emotions in a safe space, reframe negative beliefs about yourself, and find solutions that work for you. I enjoy working with clients with a variety of concerns including general anxiety, depression, trauma, and relationship issues.

I have a Ph.D in Counseling. I've been a therapist since 1984 and I listen very well. I help clients with anxiety, depression and relationship issues and more.
I graduated from the University of Texas at Tyler with a Master's Degree in Counseling and am a Licensed Professional Counselor. I spent the beginning of my career in mental health working at an MHMR, as well as with those struggling with addiction and eating disorders.
I believe that therapy should be tailored to each client individually as it is not a “one size fits all" solution. Whether or not you have a “diagnosis”, therapy is incredibly important and is a space where you get to talk about your everyday stressors or your major traumas. It’s up to you. I am dual licensed in Texas and New York.

Factors to Consider When Choosing an Anxiety Therapist in Dallas, TX
Searching for therapists in Dallas starts with finding someone whose experience matches what you want support with. Dallas has a broad community of therapists across areas like Uptown, Oak Lawn, Deep Ellum, Lakewood, and North Dallas. You may be looking for support with anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, grief, work stress, or major life changes. As you compare Dallas therapists, look for listed specialties, therapy approaches, and details about who they work with. A therapist’s bio can help you understand their style, training, and what sessions may be like.
In a major metro area like Dallas, having many options can make it harder to narrow your search. Location may matter if you prefer in-person therapy near home, work, or school. Virtual therapy may fit better if your schedule changes often or you want more choice across Texas. Beyond specialty, compare appointment availability, whether the therapist is accepting new clients, and whether they offer a free phone consultation. Reading profiles before booking can help you compare communication style, session structure, and areas of focus.
Therapy in Dallas can be a significant expense without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and understand what you may pay before you begin care. Headway helps you search for therapists in Dallas who are accepting new clients, review their bios, enter your insurance details, and see estimated out-of-pocket costs before booking. From there, you can choose between in-person and virtual sessions, compare therapists who match your needs, and book directly when you’re ready.
