I’m an anxiety and trauma therapist offering individuals, teens, and couples counseling for those navigating anxiety, trauma, perfectionism, eating disorders, grief & loss, body image, life transitions, postpartum, motherhood, self-esteem & family conflict. My passion is for those who seem “put together” but feel overwhelmed, stuck, or disconnected beneath. I offer a welcoming, non-judgmental space for clients struggling to feel "good enough", feel lost or lacking purpose, or are overwhelmed by life transitions. Together, we'll build tools for clarity, empowerment, and ease to help you cultivate a deeply aligned and fulfilling life.
I specialize in anxiety, trauma, PTSD, couples, disordered eating, overachievers, career/life transitions, & motherhood. I work with high performers, creatives, & new parents. I offer trauma-informed therapy across Texas, blending CBT, DBT, IFS, & EMDR. You’re the expert in your life; I’m here to offer perspective to help you discover alignment & ease.
Before becoming a therapist, I spent a decade in the entertainment industry, so I understand the pressure to perform, achieve, and “keep it all together.” Being human is hard, and you're not alone. I offer in-person sessions in Austin and virtual therapy across Texas. Reach out today for a complimentary 15-minute consultation to see if we're a good fit!
