West Lake Hills, TX 78746
I have experience working with anxiety and general stress management, depression, family of origin/identity work, grief and loss (including non- death loss), life transitions, shame and self-doubt, substance use, and trauma processing and recovery.
My approach to therapy is person-centered and humanistic, focused on the unique human experience of each individual. I deeply value authenticity and prioritize cultivating genuine relationships with my clients. I work with adults who want to live more freely and fully, whether you are experiencing a diagnosable mental health condition such as anxiety, depression, or PTSD, or are simply ready to incite positive change or become unstuck from hard-wired, unconscious patterns in your life.

My ideal client is someone who feels the weight of anxiety, depression, or unresolved trauma, especially those navigating the unique challenges of being first-generation or the child of immigrants, those struggling through psychosis, or navigating developmental disabilities. They seek to break free from inherited patterns, heal from past wounds, and build a life that honors their true self. I strive to encourage mental health acceptance through contemporary and engaging methods that seek the root causes of trauma and aim for lasting and sustainable healing.

Waitlist for new clients
I believe that trauma is the universal experience --we all carry trauma with us--which is why I'm a trauma therapist with a focus on complex PTSD. I am EMDR-trained but I draw on many therapeutic modalities to meet my client's needs. To me, therapy is about releasing the things that prevent us from moving toward ease in our daily lives, in our relationships, and in the way we show up in the world.

Grief Therapists
How long does therapy take for grief?
There is no exact timeline for grief counseling. Some people may start to feel better after just a few sessions, while others may take months or longer to feel relief. Some specific approaches, including some types of CBT, may involve a set number of sessions, or therapy may be open-ended until the patient determines they are ready to wrap up. Just as there is no right or wrong way to grieve, there is no right or wrong way to seek therapy for grief.
When should you seek therapy for grief?
Many people mistakenly believe that their grief needs to be debilitating or all-encompassing to warrant therapy. This is not the case. While people who experience severe, prolonged grief—particularly those who are considering self-harm or engaging in unhealthy substance use—are especially likely to benefit from therapy, so too are people whose grief is less intense but still interfering with well-being or daily functioning. In practice, almost anyone struggling to process a loss could benefit from grief counseling.
Can grief be managed without therapy?
Oftentimes, yes. Grief is a near-universal part of being human, and many find that their grief, while profound, does not stop them from participating in day-to-day life and steadily eases over time without outside help. For others, however, the harsh pain of early grief persists for months or years or leaves them unable to function. This group is especially likely to benefit from seeing a therapist, who can guide them through their grief and help them reconnect with the world.
What happens if grief is left untreated?
Because grief does not in itself necessitate therapy, untreated grief will often resolve on its own. However, for some people—particularly those who would qualify for a diagnosis of prolonged grief disorder—untreated grief can be a source of seemingly endless pain or lead them to withdraw from the world. In such cases, treatment can be indispensable, as it can help an individual adapt to the loss and start living again.
