Watching your child navigate through a storm of intense emotions can be a challenging journey, as it seems they are facing battles that aren't always visible or easy to understand. You want so badly to feel confident that your child will find their way, that they will flourish and thrive despite what seems to be so many overwhelming obstacles in their path. Despite the challenges, your deepest desire is for your child to know they are cherished, resilient, and capable of handling their big feelings.

I am a board-licensed private practice therapist based in Austin, Texas. My approach to therapy is humanistic, holistic, strengths-based, and relational. When you’re struggling with your mental health, it can feel lonely and isolating because it can seem like you’re the only one going through a rough time.

I welcome the opportunity to be that for you as your therapist and work together with you to heal your problematic thoughts and behaviors.

I love that each one of us has unique life experiences. Each life experience is different, some cause us joy and happiness while others cause pain and suffering. These experiences help create our story. Let’s explore each chapter of your story in hopes to find healing where there is pain and hope where suffering has existed. Let’s walk on this healing journey together to uncover who you are, to discover what you already have inside of you and to provide you more tools to make this healing possible.

I am a compassionate therapist specializing in individuation, connection to nature, and authentic living. With a deep understanding of the transformative power of self-discovery, our work is a journey to embrace true identity. I combine evidence-based techniques with holistic principles; encourage self-awareness, acceptance, and alignment with personal values.

I aim to guide them towards lasting positive change, fostering resilience and a renewed sense of purpose in their lives.

I have helped couples for 30 years to transform their relationship using Imago Relationship Therapy. I teach couples a communication skill set that foster emotional maturity and respect. This changes relationships. Being in relationship can be challenging during the second stage of relationship when the newness recedes and irritations begins. The Imago model increases consciousness and healing around the origins of conflict. This awareness empowers couples in their ability to change so they are no longer victims to dysfunctional patterns. I incorporate a psycho-spiritual approach in my Imago work as well as individual counseling.

We specialize in work with children, adolescents, families and couples. Family and other supportive relationships are vital to a sense of safety and well-being, and we will work closely with you to create an environment that will nurture optimal growth and development, both individually and in the context of important relationships. We work to make sense of your experiences and set attainable goals for a more satisfying and fulfilling future.

Life is tough but I am here to offer encouragement that you can get through even the toughest of battles. I am here to help you process daily life stressors and the big past hurts that have kept you stuck. By combining my personal life experience with formal education and training, I bring hope, empathy, kindness, and a solution focused mentality to the table as a counselor. I have many years of experience working with people who struggle with addiction, ADHD, anxiety, and depression. I take a holistic approach to counseling which means that in our sessions we address mental health, as well as physical health, nutrition, and more.
