Find a Therapist in Houston, Texas.

Psychotherapy, AKA "talk therapy" is a huge part of the therapeutic experience. We combine this with a variety of techniques pulled from multiple theories, which we tailor to you and your specific needs. Sometimes we can be our own worst enemy and getting those thoughts out to an outside, unbiased professional can be helpful. We are trained to identify patterns and underlying meanings, which will help you to gain more insight into yourself.

When considering psychotherapy, people often ask, "why not just talk to a friend or family member?" It is great to have a support system. But sometimes it is more helpful to talk with a psychotherapist. As a therapist, I don't have an agenda for you or a preconceived idea of what's best for you. I can listen with compassion and without judgment. My training and experience as a psychotherapist also gives me an array of tools to help you change thinking patterns that are not useful to you. Together we can explore the areas of your life that are not working, help you discover more of your own inner resources and facilitate your moving in the direction of a fuller more satisfying life.

I have focused on adult relationship issues through marriage counseling, couples counseling, singles (dating) counseling, and premarital counseling.

I work with clients to uncover unproductive thought patterns and behavioral choices. Through talk therapy, we investigate the thoughts and beliefs that hold you back and keep you repeating the same cycle with the same results. I approach therapy from a no-judgment, compassionate vantage and work with you to alleviate the fear, stress and anxiety that keeps you "stuck".

I work with an entire person--the mind, emotions, body, spirit, relationships. I offer an alternative approach to traditional psychotherapy because sometimes we are stuck beyond our thoughts. I believe we are often stuck beyond how we think about something, but by how our body holds and remembers the experiences. After all, we feel the anxiety in our chest, shoulders or stomach. When we are depressed, we struggle to move, sleep, concentrate etc. I work to remove the block from wherever it is stuck. My clients come to me after years of ineffective therapy. They are looking for more than talking about their struggles or identifying how they think about them in favor of a change in living.

"To be fully aware and embracing of all that is within us and consciously seeking to be all that we can be is our most noble quest" - Carl Jung The gift of Psychotherapy can be one of the most enriching, long lasting gifts one can give to their self. Understanding yourself on deeper levels of knowing and finding the meaning beneath struggles that bring you into therapy often leads to better relationships and an overall feeing of satisfaction in life. My approach is based on Jungian and relational models where change and inner growth is significantly impacted by the quality of the therapeutic relationship.

Life poses many challenges to all of us throughout of lives. When life becomes overwhelming, or your emotions seem like they are out of control, it often helps to have an objective person listen to what is occuring in your life. My goal is to hear what you have to say in a nonjudmental way, in an atmosphere of safety. Together we can explore what is going on with you, and I can provide you with tools to decrease your emotional suffering, gain insight into your issue, and increase coping (individually or within your relationships).

We use psychotherapy to build a personal bond that helps you to realize your own strengths. We work with people to develop belief and faith in their own ability to handle life on life’s terms. By building a strong interpersonal relationship as opposed to a starkly clinical one, we try to get a true understanding of what is triggering discomfort in your life. We will try to uncover the causes as well as a timeline as to when your symptoms began and cultivate healthy alternatives to deal with the issues troubling you most. The goal is to help you to get to a point that you feel you have the ability to manage your own thoughts and feelings and emotions outside of the therapeutic relationship.

My approach to psychotherapy is unique for each client. My goal is that each client is able to feel heard, valued, and accepted unconditionally. Through therapy, past hurts can be repaired, values can be identified, and purpose can be discovered. I use a combination of humanistic and directive approaches that lead a client to recognize their strengths and resiliency.

If you are thinking of changing your life for the better, therapy can be an instrumental tool in the process.

James Hillman once said, "We've had a hundred years of psychotherapy and the world is getting worse." While there are many occasions where the validation and listening endemic to psychotherapy makes sense, there are times where we over assume that "feeling better" and "changing behavior" are the same. Grey Matters International, Inc. goes after the forgotten brain laws to behavior change that therapists miss when processing hours and hours of dialogues with people. Utilizing a cutting edge technology to facilitate the emotional process of change, we can make the therapy process way more effective, faster, and with less money spent.
