About Princess

LCSW, CSW social worker licensed in Texas and Colorado with four years of practice experience, Princess Spikes helps people manage stress, anxiety, relationship concerns, self-esteem, and depression. She focuses on practical skills and clear steps people can use between sessions. She welcomes straightforward conversations about coping with life changes and motivation.

Princess emphasizes that clients know their own stories and brings approaches that help translate that knowledge into action. She uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to help people clarify values and commit to small changes. She draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to identify unhelpful thinking patterns and build different habits.

Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) skills are part of the work when people need tools for emotion regulation and improved communication. Sessions typically mix talking through current problems with hands-on exercises and skill practice. The focus is on what people can do day to day to feel more capable.

Princess pays attention to relational patterns that affect mood and stress, including communication problems, separation and divorce, and issues tied to family dynamics. She also addresses concerns such as guilt and shame, impulsivity, isolation, money-related stress, and questions about life purpose.

People who want straightforward, skills-based sessions will find clear expectations about tasks and goals. To begin, she asks people to complete a brief matching questionnaire and then schedule an initial meeting. The work moves at a practical pace, with steps people can try between sessions.

How ACT, CBT, and DBT inform online sessions

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify what matters to them and take small actions that reflect those values. It is useful for anxiety, low motivation, and figuring out next steps during life changes.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on spotting unhelpful thoughts and testing different behaviors. It is practical for anxiety, depression, panic symptoms, and problems with self-esteem.

Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) supplies concrete skills for managing strong emotions and improving communication. Those skills can help with impulsivity, relationship conflicts, and overwhelming mood swings.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work. She will collaborate with each person to identify which methods fit their goals and preferences, and adjust the plan over time. The therapist and client decide together which techniques to prioritize and how to practice them between meetings.

The original biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm available options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow for shorter check-ins when needed. They also let work focus on skill practice and real-life problems that come up between sessions.
