Welcome!
I admire your tenacity and vulnerability.
I invite you in this space as you are.
Have you and your partner been caught in a vicious cycle, resulting in feelings of exhaustion, insecurity, and resentment? Are you having a difficult time communicating and relating to your partner? Do you desire emotional connection with your partner or loved ones? You or your partner may have engaged in an unfaithful act, overloaded with work or parental duties, experienced complexity in the blending of two households, endured frustration in obtaining shared solutions, or identified unhealthy patterns that may lead to separation or heartbreak.
Regardless of what you are experiencing, I am glad you are here as sustainable change starts with you. Your narrative and worldview are authentic and valuable. The adversities we encounter can be overwhelming, resulting in isolation, stagnation, and disconnection with ourselves and others. It takes deep courage to ask for help and acknowledge that at times we cannot do it alone. We all need a secure and empathic platform to process our experiences, emotions, and needs in order to repair and heal our relationships and ourselves. You do not have to be isolated in your struggle, I am here to help.
My name is Deborah. I am a fully licensed marriage and family therapist and board-approved clinical supervisor in the state of Texas. I received my Doctor of Philosophy in Marriage and Family Therapy at an accredited university. I have completed my clinical training at one of the nation’s most esteemed research institutions here in Dallas. I have obtained extensive specialized training in couples, family, and individual counseling, using a highly effective therapeutic model involving adult attachment. I carry years of experience helping individuals like yourselves find hope, reverence, peace and connection again.
My hope is that this may be a rich and raw growing experience that invites you to feel safe, seen, and validated. I will maintain curiosity to understand your lived experiences and work collaboratively with you to provide the support, insight, and skills you need to shift with the ever-evolving world around us. As a result, you may capture emotional depth, connectedness, and healing with your partner, loved ones, and/or yourself. You may discover that the adversities you faced that once provided hindrance actually provides the vibrant hue and exquisite detail on your canvas. I hope that your healing journey will support you to acquire emotional maturity and life with deep purpose. If you allow yourself to trust in the therapeutic process, you may see authentic beauty unfold in your life and your relationship with others. I look forward to creating meaningful shifts with you!
