Lasting Connections Counseling

Personalized therapy for complex trauma, anxiety, OCD, and stress to bring back your power

Not a One Size Fits All Therapy – Services

I specialize in therapy with high-achieving women who feel anxious, overwhelmed, and stuck in patterns of people-pleasing or burnout. My approach is real, relational, trauma-informed, and rooted in both clinical skill and lived experience.

Whether you’re navigating a hard season, healing old wounds, or just tired of white-knuckling your way through life, therapy can help. I offer virtual counseling for adults and teens across Texas. I also have in-person sessions in Hurst.

Trauma, EMDR, and NDIT Therapy –

If it sounds like alphabet soup click here to learn more about how these life changing interventions can help you. If you have trauma that doesn’t fit neatly in a box or a form you need someone who makes a plan just for you.

People Pleasing Women

you know it’s holding you back, but you don’t know how to fix it. It’s time to pick you.

OCD and Exposure and Response Prevention

OCD is it’s own wild ride. If you’ve tried general anxiety tips you know you need someone who gets it and won’t make you feel crazy. Let me help you make sense of it and create your own toolbox to live as you again.

Child and Family Therapy –

With skills and training in play therapy, art therapy, use of games, cognitive strategies, family therapy, and stress management tools across the lifespan I can help you better understand your child and help them get back on the rails.

Post Adoption Therapy-

if you’re an adopted parent you need someone that gets it. As a TBRI practitioner, former foster care treatment director, and a 20+ year therapist I’ve got you on the wild road that makes up attachment problems and disorders.

Anxiety

Sometimes it sounds uncomplicated but that doesn’t mean you can just shut it down. Let me help you tame the voice in your head that always has “one more thing” you need to think about. Live as you again.

Depth Work (IFS, Long term Therapy) –

Have you tried cognitive behavior therapy, thinking about your thoughts, and being positive without any real movement? If you have a complex trauma history or are highly sensitive you need something different. IFS helps you meet the different parts of yourself (no it’s not multiple personality disorder) with compassion, understand yourself and heal.

LCSW Clinical Supervision

do you love therapy enough you want this to be your life? I love helping therapists become their best self. If you really want to do therapy with a social work degree you need an LCSW. I would love to talk about how I can make you a strong one.
