I am a pre-licensed professional supervised by Lindsey Heselbarth LPC-S. I use an affirming lens to support children, adolescents, and adults. I specialize in supporting Autism, ADHD, giftedness, complex and generational trauma, intellectualization, and nervous system burnout. I offer virtual appointments to those in Texas and have in-person availability in Round Rock.
Engaging in therapy takes courage and dedication. I feel honored to walk alongside those who have chosen to take this journey. I strive to provide a safe, supportive, and non-judgmental space where you can feel completely comfortable exploring the depths of your own being.
I don’t believe the purpose of therapy is to learn how to cope with the trauma, stress, and chronic dysregulation, as most of us have already spent a great deal of time and energy figuring out how to do that. Therapy should engage the mind-body connection in supporting any blockages that are preventing the joy, love, peace, and rest from being experienced.

I enjoy incorporating somatic, parts work, Brainspotting, mindfulness, art, sand tray, and other experiential modalities that can allow for deeper processing. These tools are also integrated into child-centered play therapy for children. I am currently training in Autplay, a neurodiversity affirming framework for play therapy!
