How do you work with clients with trauma and PTSD?

I'm a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner at One Behavioral in TX. I have over 12 years of nursing experience. I obtained my Bachelor of Science from Capella University and continued my education at The University of Texas at Arlington where I graduated with a Master of Science in Nursing.

I treat adult patients ages 18-65, providing personalized care plans to meet the needs and goals of each patient.

Have you lost yourself somewhere in the daily grind? Perhaps you’ve given so much of yourself to your children, your spouse, or your job that by the end of the day you find yourself frazzled, irritable, and exhausted. You might even wonder how you’ll muster the energy to do it all over again tomorrow. Have those same life distractions negatively impacted your relationship? Are you feeling alone and disconnected from your partner; more like roommates than lovers and friends? Or maybe you’re dealing with a difficult transition, and you’re not sure if/how you can feel better and move forward. As a wife & mother of three small children, I understand the unique pressures that modern relationships & parenting bring. I am adept at helping both individuals & couples navigate their journeys through major life difficulties/transitions. I believe in a mind/body approach to wellness and am passionate about helping individuals and couples in our community. As the old proverb goes, “you can’t pour from an empty cup.” If this is resonating with you, it’s time to take that first brave step into self-care. You owe it to yourself, your spouse, and your family. With the right tools, you will have the power to radically change your outlook and your life, for the better. I can’t wait to help you reinvest in yourself.

I’ve been in private practice for nearly 20 years….but there is more than an education or experience.  My work has been filled with the lives of people I have been able to witness heal traumas, or find a new journey, or come to themselves more fully.  Counseling may bring relief, recovery, tools to use or release from pain. Healing is a pathway and I get to walk beside you. I will hold the hope until you can hold it, and I will be honored to go on your journey with you.
