Although I don't just work with children, adolescents and families, this is an area of focus for me. With children and adolescents treatment will often focus on the entire family to make lasting gains. While it can be difficult at times to get everyone involved, this typically produces the best results. Treatment that ignores the family system is usually not as successful when dealing with children and adolescents. The length of treatment varies from case to case. Together we can decide how often and for what length of time you may need to come. The most successful treatment is a lifestyle change rather than a fad diet and this takes time to achieve. In addition to private practice I work as a therapist in the TCOOMMI Program of MetroCare Services. The TCOOMMI Program provides individual and family counseling to juvenile offenders with mental health needs in Dallas County. My experience has taught me a lot about how to work with individuals with diverse and often quite challenging circumstances in their lives who find themselves in crisis. It is my job to assist my clients in achieving positive outcomes. I am continually amazed at how much adversity people can overcome to be successful and strong individuals.
