Do you often feel lost and unsure about your current position and how you ended up there? Perhaps you've noticed the discomfort arising from certain emotions, physical sensations or thoughts. Our past experiences hold significant influence over our present reality, making us vulnerable to reoccurring patterns of behaviors. While it may be challenging to fully engage in our own experiences and shift our attention inward, my aim is to walk along side you and discover the key elements that bring meaning to your life.

Psychologist, PhD
Austin, TX 78704
Personal distress has many sources: difficult circumstances, lack of fulfillment, relationship struggles, painful past, and barriers to better behavior. And distress shows up in many forms: anxiety, depression, anger, destructive acting out, substance abuse, and physical symptoms. It is difficult for us to view ourselves with objectivity. Family and friends, though well meaning, often have their own agendas. An educated and confidential third party can be the answer. Drawing from many therapeutic traditions and years of experience, I will help you understand and make corrections to your life that promote growth and happiness.

You’re successful, self-aware, and used to holding it together, but your mind or relationships may tell a different story. Maybe intrusive thoughts have you questioning yourself, sex has become complicated or anxiety-provoking, or you and your partner keep getting caught in the same painful patterns. You may understand why you feel this way and still feel unable to change it. You want to feel confident in yourself again, not consumed by overthinking, disconnected from your body, or stuck in survival mode.

Couples rarely seek out help for their relationships. Be it stigma surrounding therapy, or feeling like they have not been together "long enough," couples usually wait until resentment and unhappiness have grown to distressing levels before reaching out for help. According to relationship researcher Dr. John Gottman, couples often endure an average of six years of unhappiness before seeking help. Why let years of resentment build up when you can spend that time strengthening your bond and finding new ways to overcome and adapt to life's inevitable conflicts?
