Adjusting to life after a brain injury or coping with a complex medical diagnosis can feel overwhelming and isolating. You may struggle with uncertainty, frustration, or even depression as you navigate these changes. These experiences often bring a mix of grief for what has changed and anxiety about what lies ahead.

Together, we can create a safe, supportive space to explore these challenges, helping you rediscover resilience, build coping skills, and reclaim a sense of purpose and fulfillment in your life.

I have been successful in the past with all manner of clients through many different settings – male, female, transgender, heterosexual, LGBTQ+, in inpatient, outpatient, technician, assessment, or even consulting settings. I also really enjoy working with teens and adolescents, since early brain-based interventions help everyone succeed even more in their lifetime. I find that my personality and style seem to fit best with clients who feel they are trapped in a negative routine, have no one with which to talk, or no way out of the situation from which they suffer.

I am currently in private practice, in central Austin. I help to empower clients by guiding them to acknowledge rather than suppress their emotional experiences. Psychotherapy, I believe, is analogous to emotional strength training and creates space for understanding the nuanced relationship between thoughts, feelings and behaviors. In my experience, when emotional muscles are strengthened and emotional awareness is applied to everyday acts of living, clients grow and become more self-reflective. This increased self-awareness helps clients to more clearly identify what drives both progress and stagnation

Cześć! Do you ever find yourself thinking, "I should be over this by now," "Why does my brain act like it’s still in danger?" or "I can talk about everything…except that one thing?" You're not alone - and you’re definitely not too much. You’ve carried enough on your own. You’ve survived hard things. Therapy shouldn’t be one of them.
Together we can work on becoming your best advocate, working with the pain, processing the "stuff," while also building confidence, positive coping mechanisms, and navigating life's challenges through CBT and EMDR.

Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI) Therapists
When should someone seek treatment for a traumatic brain injury?
People should seek a diagnosis and treatment after a head injury, especially if they were unconscious, and an early diagnosis can lead to a better recovery. Signs of a concussion include headaches, nausea or vomiting, exhaustion, dizziness, vision problems, sensitivity to light and sound, problems with attention and memory, brain fog, unusual irritability or sadness, and unusual sleep patterns.
What’s the most common treatment for a traumatic brain injury?
Treatment for a traumatic brain injury will be different depending on the severity of the problem. For mild injuries, treatment may involve rest and over-the-counter pain or headache medication. For moderate or severe injuries, treatment may involve stabilization, medication, and rehabilitative therapies such as physical therapy, occupational therapy, speech therapy, cognitive therapy, and counseling.
How long does it take to recover from traumatic brain injury?
The recovery time for a traumatic brain injury depends on the individual and the severity and nature of the injury; the length of time spent unconscious is often an indicator of severity. Recovery time for mild injuries may be a week or two while recovery time for more severe injuries may be six months to two years. Research suggests that the vast majority of recovery occurs in the first two years after an injury; recovery after that time frame is less certain.
What if a traumatic brain injury is left untreated?
If a traumatic brain injury is left untreated, it can lead to long-term physical and mental health problems. Physical problems may include dizziness, headaches, vision, healing, or speech loss, and an elevated risk of dementia. Psychological problems may include impairments of memory, judgment, and decision-making, depression, aggression, poor impulse control, and personality changes.
