Finding a therapist can be hard. What do all the letters mean? How do you narrow down what "issue" or "specialty" applies to you? On top of that, you're probably just trying to find someone that will help you FEEL BETTER. During a session, the hour belongs to you, and my job is to listen, support, and create a safe space. I enjoy working with culturally diverse individuals and promote positive regard for all backgrounds and beliefs. My areas of focus include: anxiety, depression, low self-esteem, relational trauma, family/relationship issues, life transitions, sexual functioning, and identity development.

I am a psychotherapist and life coach serving the state of Texas, having begun professional practice in 2011, and coached since the late 90s. I work with individual adults using telehealth services. My main therapeutic style is Rational Emotive Behavior Therapy (REBT), which is a directive treatment that uses Stoicism and acceptance. With REBT, the therapist takes an active role in assisting the client by challenging unhealthy belief systems which influence emotions and drive unhelpful behaviors. Rather than helping you feel better, I aim to help you get better. I offer a one-time free telephone consultation (up to 15 minutes).

I'm passionate about helping people create and live their best life. I believe everyone can experience their dream life when they have support and a clear direction. I love helping people reconnect, or uncover, their life’s passions through exploring past experiences and identifying what brings them joy and purpose. I started Atomic Souls because I know so many people who believe therapy is boring, too clinical, and quite frankly unhelpful. I hope to challenge that narrative about counselors by bringing creativity, fun, and passion into counseling.

Welcome! If you are sitting at your computer perusing therapy websites, I applaud you for taking the first step and having the courage to consider whether taking a therapeutic journey is the right decision for your life. While taking this journey is not easy, I fully believe that delegating time to work on ourselves allows us to grow in a mindful and self-accepting way. Psychotherapy is not a "one size fits all process." Instead, psychotherapy should be tailored to the client. Psychotherapy is about meeting you where you are at and working towards your goals in order for you to obtain the life you desire.

We believe that mind, body, and spirit are interconnected; we will help you take inventory of your mental health, physical health, and emotional health to find what works for you. When working towards a goal, people struggle with balance; they stop drinking, but start binge eating; end a toxic relationship, begin isolation; gain financial independence, lose family time. We offer alternative therapies for those searching for a holistic and eclectic approach to counseling, including creative arts, mindfulness meditation, and logotherapy, the belief that we can find meaning in suffering.

You did everything right. Followed the rules, considered and anticipated everyone's needs and somehow still found yourself on the losing end of a curve ball you didn’t see coming. Looking back, you can see that you found too much of your worth in making others happy, in avoiding conflict to not "upset the cart". You truly believed that by following the rules and doing everything "right" that life would turn out the way it was supposed to. But now, your life is chaotic and confusing. You're feeling at such a loss for what to do and how to be in this world. You need a guide to help you make sense and turn things around - fast.

Being your best can be hard, especially if you feel different, life isn't working out the way you planned, or the past won't leave you alone. But you don't have to do this by yourself. In therapy together, we start a process that explores your unique experience. I represent myself honestly to you and work to understand you honestly in a safe therapeutic relationship. Your therapy is personal. And through our work together you have the opportunity to discover more of who you are and how you live in the world around you.

Are you feeling stressed, anxious, overwhelmed with life, relationships, and stuck in negative chatter? Are you and your partner stuck in a cycle of conflict? Do you feel disconnected from yourself? your partner? your loved ones? I understand the hopelessness of living in this cycle. I work with individuals and couples going through transitions in life, or struggling in their relationship.

Seeking counseling can feel intimidating, and I am so glad you're here! You deserve a safe, nonjudgmental space to explore what is holding you back in life and how you can become more comfortable with yourself and how you relate to others. You are the expert on yourself, even if some days it may not feel like it - and if you're longing for "more", counseling can help you become more attuned to those feelings and navigate yourself towards a brighter path. I gravitate towards working with adults and children in the LGBTQIA+ and Health At Every Size (HAES) communities, as well as working with adults in the kink and poly communities.

What type of Austin mental health professional is right for me?
While most types of therapy have a lot in common, they also fall into clusters that share core features, such as cognitive therapies or psychodynamic approaches. It is important to seek someone who practices evidence-based therapy, meaning one or more forms of treatment that have been scientifically evaluated and tested, and demonstrate consistent improvement for a majority of patients.
If you are unsure about choosing the right therapist or psychologist, it might be useful to first learn more about therapy types and modalities.

How to find a therapist or counselor in Austin?
When looking to find a therapist, start by considering training and credentials. Studies also indicate that the therapeutic alliance, or the relationship the client develops with the therapist, is an important factor in their ability to work together to achieve the client’s goals.

When it comes to treatment methods, there's no 'right way.’ Each method of therapy can be beneficial for a variety of issues. Finding a psychologist or therapist who is a good fit for you is the most important step to discovering what type of therapy, or combination of therapeutic approaches, will meet your individual needs. Learn what to expect from different types of therapy and how they work.
