Life can be hard and full of challenges. I believe every person deserves the revelatory experience of therapy to make the journey a little easier. My passion is helping clients strengthen and nurture their most important relationship - the one with themselves. I want you to know and like yourself so that you may foster deeper and more meaningful relationships with those who are important to you and, ultimately, lead a more fulfilling life. During our time together you will feel understood, cared for and respectfully challenged. My native Austin roots come through in my style: chill, real, and occasionally funny.

Sometimes life robs us of our light. It can happen gradually or suddenly. We might not even know why the light is gone, only that it’s not there anymore. My goal is to enable you to search for and take hold of that light. I work primarily with depression and anxiety as well as spirituality, processing trauma, and family dynamics. I specialize in adolescents and young adults transitioning into new life stages, and adults of all ages who feel stuck in life.

The world is becoming more complex as we are expected to do more with less time and energy. What if you were already coping with difficulties from a not so distant past? With my own history of self worth/doubt, health issues and being told "I don't belong here", I can vividly remember the frustration and loneliness of trying to "live your life" while feeling excluded. I draw from this to empathize and build a mutual understanding of "now" and create a path to a more authentic version of "you." We often look to the past to find origins of problems, but its equally important to dig through our history to find gems of resilience.

With over 20 years of experience as a therapist, I am deeply passionate about helping adults and adolescents navigate life’s challenges and overcome seemingly impossible odds. I became a therapist because I know first hand the benefits of counseling...I have sat where you will sit having been a client myself! There is enormous benefit in unloading the emotions, hurts and traumas that we ignore and bury within ourselves. Avoiding the hard stuff can only last so long, eventually we have to face our burdens and walk through them; therapy gives you the chance to do just that, my role is to help you walk through that journey.

While life can bring joy and celebration, it can also be accompanied by anxiety, grief, trauma, and sorrow. These challenges can feel overwhelming and impossibly lonely. As women, we can be particularly hard on ourselves and feel pressure to thrive despite these stressors. I am inspired by the strength and resiliency of women in a world that places immeasurable pressure on us to be perfect, polite, and put together. I feel grateful that I genuinely love my job as a therapist and consider it a privilege to hold a space of compassion and understanding for you, until you are able to extend that wholehearted acceptance towards yourself.

I have worked as a therapist in a wide range of settings for over a decade now, and during this time, the one thing that I have seen repeatedly is that the therapeutic process is wholly unique for each individual client, whether they be middle schoolers, college students, or senior adults. When it comes to my therapeutic approach, it is relational and person-centered. I have found that there is no “one-size-fits-all” template. I firmly believe that you, the client, are the expert on you, and my job is to facilitate your journey towards healing and trusting yourself.

Are you juggling multiple roles—whether as a family member, a professional / student, or a creative who marches to the beat of their own drum? I see you. You might be struggling with imposter phenomenon or burnt-out from perfectionism. Maybe you are dealing with a tough transition & unsure if you can keep up the superwoman act. Or, family expectations are becoming too much. The point is: You. Are. Exhausted. Leading to anxiety, shame, isolation, poor health, & low self-esteem. If feelings like "I'm not good enough", "I don't belong", or "I don't even know who I am", keep you from experiencing true rest, know you are not alone.

Different stages of life can bring different challenges to the surface, and all of them are equally valid. I work with clients struggling with anxiety, depression, complex trauma, cultural/sexual identity, multigenerational/family of origin conflict, and prenatal/postpartum issues. I provide a gentle, curious, and collaborative style to encourage my clients to cultivate their internal resilience in a safe environment. I trust the client to be the authentic expert of their own lives, and view my role as a reflective mirror and resourceful companion.
