About me

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker practicing in Texas. I have been practicing since 1995, most of this time in Community Mental Health Programs. I have worked with many issues of concern to my clients, ranging from serious mental illness to life choices. I have worked with adults, children, adolescents, elderly individuals, couples and groups.

In 2005, I opened my private practice. Due to the loss of clientele from the pandemic I have begun working through Better Help rather than re-open my solo private practice.

I am competent in the use of Cognitive-Behavioral, Psychodynamic, Client-Centered, and Transpersonal therapies. I specifically focus on hypnotherapy, meditation, and inner child support in the Transpersonal therapies. Each of these therapies are used based on the treatment plan which is derived from the problems or concerns that the client defines as their choice for treatment and the goal they wish to reach.

In working with couples, the goal is to enhance healing independently and interdependently. I believe that we are attracted to someone who fits like a lock and key with ourselves. This engages our personal issues so that our significant other becomes the rock upon which we break ourselves and then heal through positive communication techniques, compromise and negotiation.

I believe that each person is unique and the path for growth of each person can only be determined by themselves, and/or jointly, for couples. My role in the support of my clients is to lend them my knowledge, feedback and guidance as they grow through the process of the journey. Each client has the right to self-determination and respect and can refuse any treatment suggestion without fear of consequences.

I am honored to assist you in your choice of becoming the best version of yourself, and, if appropriate, as a union of two creating a separate identity while maintaining each individually.

Donna has been a great therapist for us as a couple through a lot of life changes in a short amount of time and seems to draw on a lot of past experience as a counselor to bring expertise and answers to some tough questions and issues, would highly recommend her to any couple looking to grow in their relationship and personal lives!

Written on Apr 08, 2022 after therapy with Donna for 2 days on issues concerning relationship

She did a intake process and had me fill out paperwork and schedule a live visit, etc and the same day she says she isn’t accepting new patients. We waisted half a day and she just blew us off.

Work with me!
