As a lesbian therapist, it is my joy to create an affirming space for Texas LGBTQ+ couples.
You’re feeling unheard and disconnected from your partner. Communication that once felt easy now leads to conflict. You want to reconnect, to feel seen and understood, and to know that you and your partner can handle life’s challenges as a team. Healthy relationships don’t just happen— they’re built and nurtured. Seeking out couples therapy is not a sign of failure but something that strong, dedicated couples do. I’m passionate about helping you and your partner co-create the relationship you desire and see lasting change.

I believe that clients grow and learn most in a therapeutic relationship where they feel safe, heard, and valued, which allows clients to explore their full selves, gain emotional awareness, and bring about positive changes in their lives. I find the authentic therapeutic relationship the most valuable part of the therapy process. I have a particular passion for helping clients who have family of origin concerns and who are part of the queer and/or trans community. I aim to create an inclusive space where clients can explore the impact of power, privilege, and systemic oppression, for both privileged and marginalized identities.
