Men's Issues Therapists in Austin, TX
Being a human is complicated. We all can use someone to help us sift through the noise and connect with our inner truths. Good news: the mind is hardwired to heal itself. Given the right conditions, we are all naturally inclined to integrate the various parts of ourselves and find peace in our wholeness. My role is to foster these conditions. The therapy room is a spacious place, free of judgement and full of care, where any and everything you show up with is welcome. I am genuine and direct with my communication, and also recognize that, ultimately, you are the expert on your own life.

I do what I do because I am passionate about relationships and the profound impact they have on your wellbeing. Specializing in couple’s therapy, I find myself working with couples who experience high levels of conflict or conflict-avoidance, betrayal trauma and infidelity, communication issues, and life transitions. I provide an empathetic yet direct approach and utilize attachment theory and systems theories (EFT, RLT, IFS, SFBT) to address your concerns. I also enjoy working with families, especially those with young children, and can help you incorporate new tools, perspective, or meaning into your family system.

Learning why we do what we do is important, but then comes that key question of what to do with that information. My goal is to create a safe space for self-discovery, but also an active space, a brave space in which we explore new perspectives and frameworks for seeing. I specialize in relationship conflict, stagnation/burnout, depression, anxiety, religious trauma, and, as an IFS-informed therapist, those who wish to work with and understand the different parts of themselves through an Internal Family Systems (IFS) perspective.
