Therapeutic Approaches
Cecily’s counseling methods are empirical, creative, and thoughtful. She offers play therapy and sand tray therapy with children and adolescents. She often uses music with teens to learn more about them and enter their world. She also uses art, bibliotherapy, journaling, and poetry to help clients who are creatively minded. She even offers outdoor counseling in the beautiful private gardens behind the Fort Worth office. Cecily typically draws from several different therapeutic approaches in therapy, primarily using cognitive behavioral therapy and insight based methods.
Works with Children, Teens, Adults and Couples
Using these methods, Cecily has worked with children, teens, and adults and couples seeking help with a very wide range of difficulties. Cecily has worked in a group practice as well as a private psychiatric hospital and she finds it an absolute joy and privilege to help clients work towards growth and change.
Draws from her own Experiences in Supporting her Clients
Cecily is doing the work that she loves. She has been married for over twenty years and she has two wonderful teenage children. She enjoys movies, working out, being outdoors, and spending time with family and friends. Both of Cecily’s children were diagnosed with Celiac Disease in 2014 and one of her children has a chronic illness and chronic pain. As a result, Cecily understands the implications of long term chronic illness and pain as well as the resulting emotional, financial, physical, relational, and even spiritual implications. For this reason, Cecily also enjoys supporting those who are chronically ill, and those who love them.
