Direct Line: (979) 922-5199

I firmly believe that every client is unique, has their own path they are traveling, and are experts in their own lives.  As such, I strive to create a working atmosphere that encourages open collaboration, problem-solving, and acceptance.  Going as far back as high school, when I led my first pre-teen group at an open and affirming church youth conference, I knew my heart yearned to enter a helping profession.  I love working with various clientele to problem-solve and make positive changes to improve their situations and lives.  While I do list several “specialties” below, these are just examples of different client situations I have had experience working with in the past thus far.
 
Specialties and Experience: Anxiety, Depression, OCD, Behavioral Issues, Mood Disorders, Trauma, Interrelational Issues, Changes in Life Issues, Work-Life Balance Issues, Substance Use/Abuse Issues, Co-Parenting, Youth Services, Autism Spectrum Disorder, Chronic Pain, Grief
 
Age Groups: children*, adolescents, adults
*I have worked with children as young as six and welcome any child either old or mature enough to hold a conversation. When counseling children, parent involvement is necessary to resolve issues that affect the child.  Although there are some exceptions, those are assessed as well.
 
Resume:
B.S. in University Studies, Biomedical Sciences from Texas A&M University (2017)
Minors in Psychology and English from Texas A&M University (2017)
M.A. in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Sam Houston State University (2019)

Certified EQ-i 2.0 Emotional Intelligence Coach
What is Emotional Intelligence?

Emotional intelligence is defined as

“a set of emotional and social skills that influence the way we perceive and express ourselves, develop and maintain social relationships, cope with challenges, and use emotional information in an effective and meaningful way.”

Emotional intelligence (EI) as defined here and applied in the Emotional Quotient Inventory (EQ-i 2.0) reflects one’s overall well-being and ability to succeed in life.

Why is EI Important?

While emotional intelligence isn’t the sole predictor of human performance and development potential, it is proven to be a key indicator in these areas. Emotional intelligence is also not a static factor--to the contrary, one’s emotional intelligence can change over time and can be developed in targeted areas.
 
Applications of emotional intelligence include:

• Leadership Development
• Selection
• Organizational Development
• Executive Coaching
• Team Building
• Student Development

How it Works

The EQ-i 2.0 measures the interaction between a person and the environment they operate in. Assessing and evaluating an individual’s emotional intelligence can help establish the need for target development programs and measures. This, in turn, can lead to dramatic increases in the person’s performance, interaction with others, and leadership potential. The development potentials the EQ-i 2.0 identifies, along with the targeted strategies it provides, makes it a highly effective development tool.
 
Once you take the assessment, you will be provided with a participant report that shows the five EQ-i 2.0 composites and their subscales. These composites represent different aspects that contribute to your emotional intelligence.  Each composite consists of three subscales and show you where both your strengths and areas for growth exist.  As your EQ-i 2.0 Coach, I would then schedule a session with you to discuss your results and coach you on areas for improvement. Please note that this coaching session is ethically required to discuss and appropriately interpret assessment results.
