The practice is led by a counselor who first studied psychology in high school and went on to earn a Master of Arts in counseling from Sam Houston State University, focusing on play therapy and sand tray techniques. After years as a stay-at-home parent to four boys, she returned to school and completed a Master of Education in clinical mental health counseling from Lamar University. She works with clients on anxiety, ADHD, OCD, acute and chronic trauma including domestic abuse and religious trauma, depression, grief, negative self-image, perfectionism, PTSD and C-PTSD, self-harming behaviors, suicidal ideation, and women's issues. Treatment approaches include EMDR for trauma that the brain and body have encoded, as well as skills drawn from DBT. With children and teens, sessions incorporate developmentally appropriate cognitive-behavioral and mindfulness techniques, emotion vocabulary, pro-social skill practice, and executive functioning work, particularly for kids diagnosed with ADHD. Parents are supported through problem-solving around the most difficult behaviors at home. Sessions begin with a free consultation call, followed by online paperwork and goal-setting before clients begin the work of healing from the past and living in line with their values.

The practice sits on Village Square Drive, about a tenth of a mile from the Tomball Post Office, roughly two tenths of a mile from the Tomball Administrative Offices and Fire Station 1 and West Main Street, and within half a mile of Tomball Intermediate School, Tomball Elementary School, and the Griffin Memorial House.

The counselors at Sunflower Counseling Center bring two master's degrees, decades of professional experience, and specialty training in EMDR to their work with Tomball families across generations.
