Finding the right therapist can be challenging. I may be a good fit for someone who is interested in doing more in-depth experiential work. I'm trained in Internal Family Systems (IFS Level 2), EMDR, Sandtray and IPNB. I consider myself to be a curious and empathetic person who enjoys getting to know clients on a deep level. My approach is to provide a supportive, non-judgmental environment, where people can feel safe & show up authentically. I strive to maintain a supportive and safe presence, while providing direct and intentional feedback aimed at challenging clients to live more authentic and fulfilling lives.
Office located in East Austin
I specialize in working with clients who have experienced complex trauma, attachment wounds and complicated grief/loss. Other areas of focus include stress-management, life transitions, non-traditional family and romantic relationships, sexuality & gender exploration, complex family dynamics, LGBTQ+ Issues and ADHD/Neurodivergence.
My aim is to help clients embrace parts of themselves that are often misunderstood or kept hidden away. If you are interested in working together or learning more about my approach, feel free to reach out for a consultation.
