I had a psychology practice in Austin for 20 years, relocating to Albuquerque in 2012.

I'm an experienced therapist helping clients cope with childhood trauma and those entrapped in the cycle of mentally and emotionally abusive, manipulative relationships that destroy their sense of worth, safety and sanity. Clients reach out after years of unsuccessfully trying to satisfy their partners or family members and wonder if their loved one is Narcissistic or Borderline. They feel perpetually exhausted, anxious, numb, frazzled, confused, guilty, hopeless, ashamed, inadequate, emotionally unfulfilled, frustrated, walking on eggshells. They may habitually self sacrifice and prioritize others’ needs, yet feel like a failure.
