Therapy in Arlington and across Texas

Understanding a problem is not always enough to change it.

If you've worked on your problem before and it didn't change much, let's talk. I work with adults whose problems seem like they can't change very much. My style of therapy focuses on getting to the root of things.

Who I help

  • People who feel stuck even though they've tried to change
  • People who have anxiety or always feel 'on edge'
  • People with difficult past experiences or trauma
  • People who think deeply and want to understand

Knowledge is good, but change must come from having an experience

Sometimes you already know why you feel something but it doesn't help much. Like a car stuck spinning its wheels but going nowhere.

Certain kinds of therapy focus on helping you get traction. Once a new perspective gets started, a lot of stuff can work itself out from there. A tiny moment of new awareness can grow into a profound new experience.

What therapy with me is like

Therapy with me is casual and direct. The first part of each session will usually feel like a normal conversation about whatever is going on that matters to you. We'll focus on what's plainly happening and not get caught up in theories or psychology jargon.

Once we get clear on what matters and why, the remaining part of the session will be focused on having a new experience--planting a seed, getting traction, having that 'light bulb' moment that makes it all click into place. Suddenly you're seeing from a totally new angle.
