ADHD therapists and psychiatrists in Forney, TX

I received my Master of Arts in Professional Counseling from Amberton University. With clients, I utilize cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, motivational interviewing, Christian counseling, and mindfulness techniques, depending on individual needs and goals.

I know reaching out for support can feel overwhelming, especially if you're used to carrying everything on your own. My goal is to create a safe, supportive space where you can be yourself, feel heard, and work through life's challenges without fear of judgment.

As a Licensed Professional Counselor, I believe therapy should feel collaborative, compassionate, and tailored to your unique needs. While much of my professional experience has been working with adolescents and families in a school setting, I also enjoy working with young adults and adults navigating anxiety, depression, stress, grief, life transitions, and other emotional challenges.

Whether you're feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or simply ready for change, we'll work together to better understand what's keeping you where you are, build practical coping strategies, and help you move toward the life you want to create.

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker Supervisor (LCSW-S) with more than 20 years of experience in social work and behavioral health. Throughout my career, I have worked with children, adults, and families, with a particular focus on individual and group therapy with adults. Most recently, my clinical work has centered on supporting Veterans experiencing PTSD and trauma-related concerns. I also have extensive experience helping individuals navigate parenting challenges, major life transitions, relationship and family concerns, stress, anxiety, depression, and other experiences that can impact emotional well-being.

I am a Licensed Psychologist in Texas and a Nationally Certified School Psychologist who specializes in treating children, adolescents, and adults with social-emotional, behavioral, and educational needs. I received my Ph.D. in School Psychology from New York University in 2008 and completed an APA-approved clinical psychology internship at the Devereux Foundation in Pennsylvania. I have received training in both private and public school settings, outpatient settings, hospitals, and in specialized educational programs for children and adolescents with emotional, behavioral, and developmental needs. I participated in a Family and Multicultural Therapy program for two years at Beth Israel Medical Center in New York City where I received supervised family therapy and multicultural competency-based training. In addition to my clinical work, I am an Assistant Professor in the School Psychology Program at Texas State University. My research seeks to understand and promote diversity and inclusion in educational settings. I am particularly interested in studying the development of and consequences associated with children’s social (e.g., gender stereotypes) and academic (e.g., growth mindset) cognitions. My research also involves developing and evaluating interventions to promote positive social and academic outcomes.

What I would want clients to know about me is that I understand how heavy life can feel when you are carrying too much for too long. I often work with moms, caregivers, children, teens, and adults who are navigating anxiety, stress, overwhelm, life transitions, and the pressure to keep showing up even when they feel emotionally exhausted. If you are a mom who feels like you are always running, always thinking about what someone else needs, and slowly losing touch with yourself, this can be a space to pause, breathe, and begin finding your way back to you.

I also bring many years of experience in education and school counseling, which helps me support children, teens, and families with a practical understanding of how home, school, relationships, and daily responsibilities can impact emotional well-being. My goal is not to help you chase perfection, but to help you build more balance, clarity, confidence, and peace in your everyday life. Whether you are trying to feel like yourself again or trying to support a child who is struggling, you do not have to figure it all out alone.
