Individual Therapist In McKinney Tx
I have been practicing as a therapist for over 10 years and have worked in a variety of clients in my training and growth as a therapist and am comfortable seeing clients of all ages.
My training has included working in a community therapy center on a college campus, serving the Denton community, working at Children’s Medical Center of Dallas, with children who were diagnosed with cancer, and in their Child Life Program. Finally, before coming to private practice, I worked at Genesis Women’s Shelter and Outreach Programs in Dallas, TX.
