Let's see if I am the right fit for you.
Every person who walks through the door of Arrow House Counseling is carrying something. My job is not to hand you a generic coping strategy and send you on your way. My job is to understand what you are actually carrying, why it feels as heavy as it does, and what it will take to help you set some of it down.
I work with women, mothers, couples, and adults navigating some of life's most demanding seasons. My approach is holistic and whole-person, which means before we talk about goals or strategies, I want to understand you completely. Your body, your history, your relationships, your daily life. Real care starts with real understanding.
Below are the areas I specialize in. Click any one to learn more about how I work with that specific concern.
I don't just treat symptoms. I want to understand systems.
Before we talk about goals or coping strategies, I want to understand you completely. Your sleep. Your nutrition. Your hormones. Your energy. Your history. Your relationships. I have found that what looks like anxiety is sometimes a thyroid. What looks like depression is sometimes a deficiency. What looks like a relationship problem is sometimes exhaustion that has never been addressed.
That is why every new client relationship begins with a comprehensive, physiologically-informed assessment. I look at the whole picture before we build a plan - including blood work for nutritional deficiencies and autoimmune markers, sleep patterns, hormonal health, exercise, and lifestyle factors alongside the emotional and relational landscape you bring.
I actively collaborate with physicians, nutritionists, chiropractors, and integrative health providers because I believe the best care is coordinated care. I use CBT, Motivational Interviewing, Trauma-Informed Care, and Solution-Focused Therapy alongside formal assessment tools including the GAD-7, PHQ-9, and Edinburgh Postnatal Depression Scale.
Sessions are available in person in Collin County and via telehealth across Texas.
Adult ADHD
You were probably never the textbook ADHD kid. More likely you were the one who tried harder, compensated quietly, and wondered why everything felt so much more difficult than it seemed to for everyone else. As an ADHD-CCSP (Evergreen Certified), I bring clinical expertise and a holistic lens to ADHD treatment that goes beyond what most therapists offer.
Motherhood Challenges
Motherhood is one of the most beautiful and most overwhelming experiences of a woman's life. If you are drowning in the mental load, the loss of identity, or the pressure of doing everything for everyone, you are not failing. You are carrying too much without enough support. Let's change that.
Postpartum Depression and Anxiety
You were told this would be the happiest time of your life. If it doesn't feel that way, something is wrong - but it is not you. Postpartum depression and anxiety are real, common, and treatable. You deserve to feel like yourself again, and you do not have to white-knuckle your way through this season alone.
Marital and Relationship Conflict
Every relationship goes through hard seasons. Whether you are struggling with communication, trust, intimacy, or simply feeling like you are living parallel lives, couples counseling creates a space where both of you can be heard and real change becomes possible. It is not too late to find your way back to each other.
Caregiver Burnout and Compassion Fatigue
Whether you are raising a child with special needs, caring for an aging parent, or absorbing the pain of others as part of your daily work, caregiver burnout is real and it deserves real support. I understand this world not just clinically but personally, and I will meet you exactly where you are.
Not sure where you fit?
That is completely okay. Many of the people I work with are navigating more than one of these areas at once. Schedule a free 15-minute consultation and we will figure out together what you need and whether I am the right person to help you find it.
Why So Many of These Feel Familiar at Once
If you came to this page looking for help with one thing and found yourself nodding at several, that is not a coincidence. I have intentionally woven together specialities that are deeply connected. Having an understanding of how they intersect is part of what makes holistic care so important.
Women with ADHD are five times more likely to experience postpartum depression and postpartum anxiety than women without ADHD. In fact, approximately 25 percent of women with ADHD were diagnosed with postpartum anxiety following childbirth, compared to fewer than 5 percent of women without ADHD. If you have ever wondered why your postpartum experience felt so much harder than what others described, an undiagnosed or undertreated ADHD diagnosis may be part of the answer.
ADHD also compounds caregiver burnout in significant ways. The executive function challenges that come with ADHD, including difficulty with time management, self-organization, and emotional regulation, are precisely the skills that caregiving demands most. Research confirms that adults with ADHD experience higher rates of burnout than their neurotypical peers, and that the relationship between ADHD and burnout is mediated directly through these executive function deficits. Caregiving with an unaddressed ADHD brain is not just hard. It is a fundamentally different experience.
Maternal burnout and relationship conflict are also deeply intertwined. When a mother is depleted, she has fewer emotional resources available for her partner. Communication breaks down not because the relationship is failing but because there is simply nothing left. The couple is not the problem. Chronic depletion without support is.
This is why I assess the whole picture before we build any plan. What looks like a postpartum mood disorder may also involve ADHD. What looks like a relationship problem may be rooted in burnout. What looks like burnout may have a physiological component that has never been addressed. When we understand how these pieces connect, the path forward becomes much clearer.
