As a therapist & human, I believe that our deepest pain is often with our deepest longings. My work & approach are rooted in attachment-based research, & my theory of change begins with the belief that we have an innately human need to connect & belong. I strive to create a space where you can belong, first & foremost. I pay close attention to the ways early relationships shape how we see ourselves, connect with others & move in this complex world. I believe I understand how pain, loss, and disconnection can leave lasting imprints on us and contribute to our sense of alienation.

For over ten years, I’ve had the honor of walking alongside people as they work toward creating the life they want. For over ten years, I’ve had the honor of walking alongside people as they work toward creating the life they want. I use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) as my main approach because it gives us practical tools to understand how our thoughts, feelings, and behaviors connect—and how small changes in one area can lead to meaningful shifts in our everyday life. That said, I don’t believe therapy is about fixing what’s “wrong” with you.

I graduated from the University of Texas in 2018 with my Master of Social Work degree. I discovered I had a passion for helping people at a young age and felt it was my calling to become a social worker. I have worked with a broad range of people, from infants to the geriatric population. I have worked in both small and large communities and integrated these experiences to enhance a balanced overview. I have extensive experience working with different family systems, aging, grief, children, and couples throughout my career. I have learned that each individual I have had the privilege of working with has taught me something special.

You’re a high-achiever running on empty or a parent watching your kid struggle to navigate school, friendships, and the pressure to "fit in." Life feels like a constant performance. Whether it's the grind of a classroom that doesn't click, friction in your relationships, or the crushing weight of burnout, you're exhausted. You want more than just "coping"—you want a manual for your specific life. You might be navigating ADHD, Autism, or LGBTQ+ identity, or maybe you’re the "gifted kid" who finally hit a wall. You want to stop performing and start living with tools that actually work for you.

From the outside, you appear capable, accomplished, and composed. Internally, it’s a different story. Your mind rarely slows down. You replay conversations, anticipate worst-case scenarios, and avoid situations where you might feel exposed or judged.
You don’t want surface-level coping strategies. You want meaningful, lasting change.

I work with adults who often carry a harsh inner critic, feel disconnected from themselves or others, or are simply overwhelmed by life. Therapy with me is a space to slow down, feel safe, and begin making sense of what’s been hard to hold alone. I pay attention to how stress shows up in your nervous system, how early relationships shape your patterns, and how we can work together to build something more grounded and true.
