Adults Therapists in Austin, TX
I specialize in working with neurodivergent adults, LGBTQ+ concerns, religious trauma, and self-esteem issues.
You’ve probably heard messages about what you’re supposed to do all your life. Successful people do this; good people do that. Hit the milestones, and you’ll be happy. But if following society’s script was enough, you wouldn’t be considering therapy. You’re not alone. Every week, I see intelligent, hardworking people who feel overwhelmed, exhausted, or don’t know what they’re doing. Some are trying to connect with who they are and what they want. Others have gotten out of the box their upbringing put them into but still live with its scars.

I have 10 years experience practicing DBT at all levels of mental health care with adults struggling with mood, anxiety, personality, substance use and eating disorders.
One of the most common frustrations with therapy is feeling like you gain insight during session, but that doesn’t translate into behavioral change outside of session. As an adherent DBT therapist, I am committed to helping my clients shape the intensity, frequency and duration of emotions and behaviors that are causing fall out and disrupting the quality of their daily lives. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) is an effective treatment for helping people regulate intense emotions, tolerate distress, improve interpersonal effectiveness and increase mindfulness.

Expert with Adults, Military Veterans, Academics, & Creatives.
The bottom line is this: psychotherapy should be affordable, smart, efficient, and caring.
As I practice it, counseling involves helping persons understand their own nature and, especially, their desires and needs. Counseling offers a sanctuary for persons to sort out their lives and more intimately explore their direct experience. My practice is dedicated to the process of authentic transformation, arising from the client's and therapist's co-exploration of "what is."

I work with adolescents, teenagers and adults.
Making the decision to begin counseling can be difficult, and finding a therapist that is a good match can be equally overwhelming. I work to create a comfortable, safe, and supportive environment to make it easier to start the process. Everyone enters therapy at a different emotional place, and I work to meet clients where they are. Although I use various methods, my approach is relational because the most powerful catalyst for change is the relationship that we create together during our sessions. I want your therapy to be meaningful to you, and I am upfront and engaging during sessions.

I've enjoyed years of counseling- with adolescents in an alternative high school, in inpatient rehab for substance use, with adults in hospitals (trauma unit, women's unit, and abortion clinic), and with parents and children in the family court system.
Have you found yourself overwhelmed lately? Given our social climate, you are in good company! Perhaps you're navigating relationship difficulties, a big life change, past trauma, or a significant loss. Feelings of anxiety and depression can drain our energies and become isolating. Trusted support is critical! I'd love to offer a safe space to process the heavy issues and uncover new ways forward. I'm happy to meet my clients where they are in life, without judgment. I work from a trauma-informed and strengths-based background, using training in Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and EFT.

I work with adults across the lifespan and use a variety of modalities to target the distorted thinking that often underlies painful emotional and behavioral symptoms as well as techniques that help clients process and heal wounds that may be affecting current relationships.
I am currently accepting couples interested in Imago Relationship Therapy. Sometimes we turn our pain into suffering, either by pushing away or being overtaken by our emotions and problems. Just like our physical bodies, our emotional selves need to be tended to and nurtured. Without maintenance, we can default to old ways of coping and make things worse. I work with you to discover new ways of coping, and understanding your experiences so you can feel more emotionally at ease and functional in your day-to-day life.

My passions are helping adults and teens navigate ADHD, life transitions and developmental trauma. Navigating life with ADHD can be difficult at any age. I seek to help parents, children and adults learn to accept the gifts and manage the challenges of living a successful life with ADHD. Life transitions are major life events that can be difficult to work through. Developmental trauma occurs when we do not get what we need emotionally from our caregivers as children. Altough often intentional this can leave us feeling damaged and unloved. I seek to help you discover how to connect to and love yourself and others.
