Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist
- (at ABC Counseling Inc.)
Master’s of Science specializing in Family, Couple’s, and Individual Psychotherapy, certified in Crisis Training, licensed in the state of Texas, and license number 203708.
I have interned for the STEP Program with Juvenile Probation, The Rape Crisis Center, Community Counseling Service, and Driggers Elementary Counseling. My working experiences have offered me a wide range of opportunities to counsel couples, families, children, adolescents, and adults. I have knowledge in many areas including trauma, PTSD, depression, bipolar, schizophrenia, anxiety, self-esteem, multigenerational challenges, sexual assault, human trafficking, life transitions, and grief. I have experience working with members of the queer identity through all stages of their identity exploration and acceptance. I am also informed in various relationship practices including monogamous and alternative styles such as polyamory, kink, long-distance, and open relationships. I’m an eclectic therapist utilizing techniques from evidence-based theories such as Collaborative Therapy, Solution Focused Therapy (SFT), Narrative Therapy, and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT). I’m also certified in Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT) specializing in the treatment of PTSD. I speak both English and Spanish and begin working with those at age 9 and up.
I offer free 15 minute virtual consultations for those looking into therapy and wanting to meet prior to scheduling an intake for questions on billing, scheduling needs, and any questions they may have. I’m currently working towards being paneled with the following insurance companies: Aetna, Cigna, United Healthcare, Superior, Community First, Medicaid, ComPsych, Blue Cross Blue Shield, Tricare, Imagine360, and Friday. For those with insurance companies I’m waiting to be paneled with, I’m offering a reduced fee of $70 a session until we can begin to bill the insurance. Otherwise, my fees are as follows: Individual intakes are $140 and follow up sessions are $120; Family or Couples intakes are $160 and follow up sessions are $140.
