We live in an extraordinary stressful time. Do you find yourself feeling anxious, depressed, or lonely? Maybe you face issues of love and relationship, career and money, health and happiness, or bereavement and loss. Perhaps you are simply sick of repeating the same self-defeating patterns. Whatever the case, we can figure it out together. I will guide you in the journey of self-inquiry that will lead to creating something beautiful and extraordinary in your life no matter the circumstance. Life will take on new meaning and purpose as you begin to explore and discover and love who you are.

I am an Honors graduate of The University of Texas at Austin with over 30 years experience helping people overcome anxiety & depression, resolve conflicts, deal with past hurts & traumas, improve communication and self esteem, and increase the quality of their relationships, as well as their work or school performance, in order that they may lead happier and more fulfilling lives. I also recently completed training to become a state-licensed, Clinical Social Work Supervisor for newly-graduated clinicians-in-training.

Are you overwhelmed? Anxious? Lonely? In emotional or even physical pain? Working hard to care for everyone else and coming up empty within yourself? Feeling isolated in the close relationship you care about most? Therapy offers a safe and confidential place to get some help to develop or perhaps rekindle a lively connection to yourself and your own dreams. If your relationship is suffering, it can help you regain the closeness and intimacy you once had and if you are parents help you nurture your own marriage while raising secure children.

A variety of approaches and techniques can be productive in the self-discovery process. My first priority is to create a comfortable setting – regardless of geography – that makes each individual at ease in sharing his or her significant life experiences. A feeling of respect, non judgmental attitude and positive regard will be felt when meeting with me. With this atmosphere set, the ability to develop new perspectives, coping mechanisms and problem-solving skills will prosper. I will help you transform your thinking in a way that enables you to find new purpose, deeper meaning and a more authentic relationship.

My clients come in experiencing self-doubt, anxiety and believing they are not quite “good enough”. Maybe you’re feeling the constant weight of perfectionism in your life and relationships. You could be tired of over performing for others and under delivering to yourself. Many of my clients overly accommodate others at the expense of their own needs, resulting in uneasiness in the body, nervous system exhaustion and burnout! I see therapy as a way to start connecting with and speaking your truth and to finally quit abandoning yourself! Most of my clients are younger women (UT students welcome!) however, I see all genders ages 18+.

John Lennon nailed it: "Life is what happens when we are busy making other plans." Without warning we my find ourselves dealing with the loss of a relationship, a job, or a difficult diagnosis. Perhaps parenting, which used to be so easy, does not seem to be working. For others, years of carrying so much anxiety and stress has now become too heavy and is getting in the way. Possibly life itself has turned upside down, magnifying everything else to the point that it is just overwhelming. I get it and can offer support, skills and a path towards reclaiming your well-being and a life worth living.

My philosophy for therapy is that it is a collaborative process of partnering to develop new tools to create change. I believe in creating a strong therapeutic alliance in order to help you feel empowered to try out new strategies to maximize the positive results that you can achieve. I have significant experience providing evidenced-based treatment for anxiety, depression, behavioral issues, social skills deficits, and parent training/coaching. I work with children, adolescents, adults, and parents. I provide psychological assessments for learning disabilities, ADHD, and social/emotional/behavioral concerns.

Often we face many challenges in our lives and need an outlet to figure out the road we will take on this next journey. Dealing with depression and anxiety can add to our level of stress. I have successful experience working with adults and older adults dealing with depression and anxiety, grief and loss, stress, divorce, family and care giving issues. With my previous experience working in hospitals and psychiatric hospitals for adults and older adults I bring skills to help you develop coping strategies as you might face these challenges.

Do you need someone to talk to and to find solutions to painful emotions and behaviors that are hurting you, your relationships and negatively impacting your quality of life? Call me, I can help. I have experience with most psychological disorders and difficult life circumstances and have helped individuals and families successfully cope with depression, anxiety, mood disorders, trauma recovery, and substance abuse and addiction issues both within self or in the family. I have worked in a variety of settings as a clinician, supervisor, manager and director both before and after starting my own private practice in 2000.

I bring an honest and authentic intention to work with you as a unique, whole person; one that is not defined by a label or diagnosis. I enjoy partnering with clients who are curious and open to working on improving stress, anxiety, depression, relationship issues (romantic, family or work) and/or are searching for fulfillment, hope and answers to all the 'why's. Our environment will be warm, empathetic and judgement-free to explore your experiences and, if you are up to it, discuss previous trauma(s). We will collaborate on goals and the path to get you where you want to go.

I provide counseling for individuals, couples, marriages and families. I also provide individual sessions for Meridian Tapping and iRest® Yoga Nidra Meditation. I integrate Imago, Meridian Tapping and meditation to empower you in learning to navigate your life and relationships. I guide you in exploring body feelings, emotions and beliefs as well as your relationship systems. I will guide you in learning how to become safe with yourself and how to be empowered in the present while living in the world. I look forward to working with you. I will treat your concerns with the utmost respect and with complete confidentiality.

Are you tired of feeling depressed? anxious? or just not sure your life is where you want it to be? Have you reached the end of your rope and are unsure how to proceed? Maybe you need someone to help you sort through the pros and cons of an important decision? If you see yourself in one (or some other) of these spots, I would like to talk with you about how psychotherapy might be helpful for you.

Experienced, compassionate counselor/coach dedicated to your healing and goals. Meeting you where you are with what's right for you. Here you will find tender, safe support to work on family trauma, rapid relief from anxiety and chronic pain, and help for dealing with addictions. I take an integrative approach in my counseling practice, using a combination of evidence-based therapies and the latest findings in brain science. I welcome and support diversity and LGBTQ+ folks. I mainly practice Emotional Transformation Therapy (ETT), a breakthrough in psychological science.

Therapy should be straightforward, and lead to you feeling better as soon as possible. Depression and anxiety are not weaknesses- they are normal responses to stress and trauma, and there may be things we can do right away to alleviate your symptoms. I will create a space where you feel understood and accepted so you can safely explore whatever is troubling you, at your own pace. Your past will provide us insight about how you came to your present circumstances, but it doesn't have to define you or your future. I have flexible scheduling and will try to accommodate you. Note: My practice is for NY and Texas residents only.

Caseload Currently FULL. I will update when I have openings through telehealth and in person visits. I have been providing psychotherapy and behavioral health counseling to diverse population of adults with a full spectrum of emotional and psychological needs since 2010. I have witnessed many of my clients progress and graduate out of counseling after we have worked together on anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship distress, chronic pain, health behaviors, compulsions, and mild addiction.

Is stress, anxiety and depression plaguing you? Do you feel more disconnected than ever in this post-pandemic world? Have you ever been curious about what therapy with horses might be like? I'd love to offer you the experience of something different, through a felt experience of change either through in-person talk therapy or equine assisted psychotherapy (I also offer Telehealth!). Therapy can be a place to feel safe, seen and find pathways to new ways of being in the world. I hope to meet you soon!

I am a licensed clinical psychologist committed to helping you build a life worth living. I work with a variety of issues including recovering from trauma, coping with chronic pain, anxiety, depression, and learning to manage emotions. My approach is to work collaboratively with you to learn new behaviors and skills to replace ineffective patterns of behavior that are interfering in your life.

I view therapy as a deeply transformative experience where people may discover more of who they are and ultimately find a greater sense of peace. Our suffering is often a result of a complex set of circumstances involving our sense of self, our relationships with others, our thoughts, and our feelings. I believe each person deserves to be understood in all of his or her complexity. It is only within an open and accepting relationship with another that we can begin to experience ourselves and our relationships in a new and healing way.
