Are you experiencing anxiety, grief, and/or depression? Do you need help and encouragement to explore, decide and put into place life choices that fit you? Are you ready to take steps toward feeling peaceful, happier and healthier? Are you an adult, couple, and/or military veteran that wants to make some changes in your life and/or relationships to find greater contentment? If any of this applies to you and your situation, I am here to offer encouragement, support, and healthy decision-making skills. I am very compassionate and truly listen and care about you and your concerns.
Ida has more than 25 years of experience working with adults and couples in the areas of life adjustment, Christian counseling, anxiety, career adjustment and change, depression, marriage and relationship concerns, ADHD, and anger issues. She utilizes Cognitive Behavioral Therapy as well as Integrative Holistic approaches to counseling.
Ida received her master’s degree in Counseling from Chapman University in Orange, California. She has provided counseling to individuals and couples in private practice and in churches in the East Texas and Central Texas areas for several years.
Ida has worked as a Mental Health Director as well as supervising Disability Services, Career Counseling Services, and other areas in two major universities in Texas. She has served as the President of the Texas University Counseling Center Directors Association for two terms. She developed the Special Needs (Disability) program at the University of Texas at Tyler and has counseled with a variety of individuals with special needs and developed accommodations to meet those needs.

Following are some comments left by a few of Ida’s previous clients within the past year.
“Ida is great at listening and is very friendly and it is therapeutic to work with her.”
“I’ve been counseling with Ida for a couple of weeks. So far, I’m feeling really good. I’m totally comfortable with her and I feel like she comes to the conversations with solutions that she wants me to collaborate with her on. I never feel like I’m being told what to do.”
"Ida just has this extremely calming and reassuring energy to her. I immediately felt a connection with her in our first session. She doesn’t ever try to rush through any of our sessions, she takes the time to actually find the root of the problem and helps come up with a solution to them.”

Read More about Sheryl
Making a decision to begin counseling can bring hope and relief, and also be scary or intimidating. My desire is to create a safe and comfortable refuge where clients can explore and express feelings, identify solutions, and grow in their ability to develop healthy, supportive relationships. Helping individuals, couples, and children cope with challenges in their lives and not only recover but become stronger and more resilient is my priority as a therapist, using evidence-based practices such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Dialectical Behavioral Therapy. Supporting people who want to reduce or eliminate habits that are no longer beneficial for them, such as smoking or substance use, is an area in which I take a non-judgmental and positive approach.
Sheryl is also experienced in the treatment of trauma for both children and adults, and as a musician and artist, she understands the value of creative, non-verbal methods for healing and integrating experiences based on the most current understanding of brain processes and functioning. Incorporating an individual’s spiritual or religious orientation into therapy can be a vital part of the healing process, so Sheryl will work from a faith-based approach when clients desire.
Sheryl received her B.A. in Psychology from UCLA, and her MA in Clinical Psychology from Pepperdine University. She has previously provided community- and school-based treatment for children and families, and worked in a non-profit agency with adults experiencing a wide variety of circumstances and needs. She was licensed as a Marriage and Family Therapist in California in 2005 and in Texas in 2006. Throughout her time as a therapist, she has considered it the utmost privilege to be part of the journey of her clients, and to offer her expertise and guidance as they grow and thrive.
