I am a licensed mental health counselor in both Texas and Washington State, trained to work with clients who struggle with depression, anxiety, relationship issues and grief.
I have 26 years of experience working in an elementary school as a teacher and counselor. I am familiar with the school setting and can help children and parents navigate school situations that include evaluation for learning disabilities, academic testing, organizational skills, time management, course selection for secondary students, executive functioning skills, and peer relationships.
In my time as a counselor, I have helped children in a variety of situations including changes in family dynamics, divorce, blended families, death of a loved one, suicide of a family member, preparation for a funeral, life changes due to illness, abuse, etc.
Recognizing the need for growth and change can feel intimidating, but taking that first step toward therapy shows courage and a willingness to invest in yourself. I create a warm, supportive space where clients can safely explore past and present experiences. Together, we work to understand patterns, emotions, and challenges that may be holding you back. I view therapy as a collaborative journey where we move at your pace while building insight, self-acceptance, and meaningful change. My goal is to help you reconnect with your strengths and move toward a more balanced, fulfilling life.

Factors to Consider When Choosing an OCD Therapist in Garland
Finding OCD therapists in Garland starts with looking for training that matches the care you need. Exposure and response prevention, often called ERP, is one therapy approach some clinicians use to support people with OCD, and not every therapist has specific training in it. As you compare options, look for experience with intrusive thoughts, compulsive checking, contamination fears, reassurance seeking, or related anxiety concerns. A therapist’s bio can help you see whether they list OCD, ERP, cognitive behavioral therapy, or acceptance and commitment therapy as part of their approach.
Garland has local therapy options, and virtual care can also expand your search across Texas when you want more choice or need a schedule that fits your day. For OCD care, it helps to look beyond whether a therapist lists OCD as a specialty and check for direct ERP experience, session structure, and current appointment availability. You can also review whether a therapist offers a free phone consultation, which gives you a chance to ask about their approach before booking a first session.
Therapy in Garland can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and see your estimated out-of-pocket cost before you book. Headway makes it easier to compare therapists who are accepting new patients, review detailed bios, choose virtual or in-person care, and book directly when you’re ready.
