Cognitive Behavioral (CBT) Therapists in Texas

I have a passion for helping people that struggle with substance abuse issues (i.e. drugs and alcohol). I assist my clients in finding their true selves by teaching them to learn how to cope with and resolve their anxieties, depressions and traumas. I have experience working with both the adult and youth population. I aide my clients in identifying their strengths and motivations, and how to use them to maintain long term sobriety. I have a Masters Degree in Addiction Counseling. I also have a PhD in General Psychology with an emphasis in integrated behavioral health (where physical and mental health needs meet in the middle). I am also trained in Trauma Therapy to help those that struggle from a past traumatic experience that may be impeding their sobriety. If you or a loved one struggles from a substance abuse problem, reach out to me. I'm happy to give a brief consultation on how I can assist you at this time of need.
