FAQ Question
How can therapy help?  

Therapy is unique for each person or couple. Depending on your history and life experiences, learning new ways to make significant changes can take time and commitment.

Most times, we are able to pinpoint when problems started. Usually, these issues coincide with a change or transition in life.

These transitions include:

  • Getting engaged
  • Blending families (Re-marrying)
  • Having a baby
  • Raising teenagers
  • Caring for aging parents
  • Moving
  • Changing jobs
  • Financial problems
  • Coping with death
  • Dealing with a health problem
  • Becoming empty-nesters

Life transitions can overwhelm even the strongest people. Stress preoccupies our minds.

We can work together to help improve interpersonal understanding, connection and set realistic goals.

FAQ Question
Is our problem serious enough to need professional counseling?  

Everyone goes through challenging situations in life and while you may have successfully navigated through other difficulties you’ve faced, there is nothing wrong with seeking out extra support when you need it. Some issues people experience are unresolved problems in their marriage, are concerned about work problems, family problems, depression and anxiety, control or abuse in prior relationships, self-esteem issues, emotional problems and other relationship concerns. In fact, therapy is for people who have enough self-awareness to realize they need a helping hand. When you find yourself overthinking or having the same problem again and again with no resolution, a professional therapist can be helpful.

Couples should seek couples counseling before minor problems become difficult. Research has shown that couples who seek help early have the best chance of lasting and thriving even during difficult times.

FAQ Question
How often, when and how long will sessions be?  

Sessions are usually weekly or every other week for 50 minutes in my office in Fort Worth or online. Appointments are scheduled on a regular basis so you can depend on consistency of therapy. I see clients by appointment. The length of time you spend in therapy depends on your ability to make necessary changes and the goals you establish.
