Do you know what decades of research show is the single most important predictor of successful therapy? It’s the quality of the relationship between client and counselor. My priority is to create a strong therapeutic alliance built on trust, safety and mutual respect with you because I know that has the greatest influence on your motivation, emotional openness, and long-term change. I work with individuals navigating the ripple effects of active addiction and recovery along with coexisting issues such as anxiety, depression, PTSD, personality disorders, relationship issues and identity conflict.

Are relationship dynamics, family tension, or the patterns you keep repeating leaving you feeling stuck and disconnected from who you truly are? Whether the struggle is personal, between partners, or felt across the whole family, it rarely exists in isolation — and neither should the solution. You don't have to untangle it alone, and you don't have to choose between getting help as an individual or getting help together. In addition to individual therapy, I specialize in couples and family therapy, helping you gain deeper insight into your patterns and become more of who you truly are.

Being human is messy. You carry stories in your body—ones you don’t always have words for. Maybe you feel stuck, overwhelmed, or exhausted from always holding it together. Old wounds, chronic stress, or relationship patterns that leave you feeling too much or not enough—it’s heavy to carry alone. You want a space where you can be fully seen—without editing yourself. A space to breathe, hear yourself think and reconnect with the parts of you that long for relief, safety, and deeper connection.

Austin, TX 78703
I work with individuals and families who are struggling with difficult issues such as depression, divorce, or mental illness. Conflicts, within and between people, lie at the core of emotional distress. Divorce, depression, substance abuse make setting healthy boundaries difficult, and before the individual knows it, he or she is living in a state of compromise. I focus on people who are wanting to get out of a compromised state and build healthy relationships that protect personal space and are conducive to reciprocity.

Many of my clients are perfectionists, doers, care-takers, hard-workers, or achievers. They readily see the needs of others but do not always slow down for their own needs. This may exhibit as symptoms of anxiety, overwhelm, rage, depression, or numbness. While many may have high emotional intelligence, they do not know how to experience their emotions fully. I find that people do not need my advice- you are quite proficient at many things. My clients need my presence. I bring both softness and strength; because good therapy is gentle but also does not fear any emotion that may come.

Parenting Therapists
What does therapy for parenting look like?
Therapists may work with parents individually, together, or include the whole family to find solutions for the problems a parent faces. Many parent-based therapies work on a parent’s relationship with their children, problem-solving within the family, and analysis of family dynamics. Therapy conducted remotely by video may be helpful in allowing a therapist to observe how families interact in their own homes.

When should a parent seek therapy?
When behavioral problems begin to disrupt the healthy functioning of a family, it may be a good time to look into therapy. If parents find that children are acting out in school, have started using drugs or alcohol, have developed eating disorders, or other similar red flags, a therapist may be able to help.

How long does therapy take for parenting problems?
Depending on the severity of a family’s challenges and the type of treatment utilized, therapy for parenting can last from weeks to months. Cognitive behavioral therapy is a pragmatic therapy type that can be brief, most often ranging from between 5 and 20 sessions. Structural family therapy, which inspects family dynamics, often takes several months. Parent-child interaction therapy is typically shorter-term, lasting between 10 and 20 sessions. For any therapy, the duration will depend on the progress made and results realized.

Can therapy help parents dealing with burnout or stress?
Parenting is difficult. Parents may dismiss or conceal feelings of exhaustion, overwhelm, or escape ideation—imagining withdrawing from their parental obligations altogether. but left unattended, these feelings can have negative effects on the whole family. A therapist can help parents work on the skills they might need to better cope with the burdens of parenting and help them be the best parents they can be.
