Therapists in Georgetown, TX

When I was growing up, asking for help was seen as a sign of weakness. We were raised to not go outside of our family system with our problems. No wonder I was well into my twenties when I realized that in order to be successful both emotionally and mentally in my life, I needed to learn how to trust others that were outside my family system. Only then could I to begin to heal. I have learned that isolation and recovery are mutually exclusive. Others provide objectivity, support, and a clarity that we can't achieve on our own.

We are all a work in progress. Maybe you are… struggling with communication and conflict, feeling overwhelmed by grief and pain, looking to find fulfillment in your life, don't know who you or your partner is anymore, wondering how to address past issues/traumas with your partner, feeling burdened by life and choices, or want to foster more meaningful relationships... Maybe none of these fit you, but instead, you have other reasons for looking for a therapist that focuses on relationships. I am here to help you along that path.

I have a passion for working with people with persistent pain as well as chronic debilitating medical conditions and trauma. I teach people how to utilize their own strengths and abilities of which they are often unaware. I enjoy discovering these together with my patients. I am excited about neurobiologically oriented interventions such as EMDR and Neuroplastic Transformation. I offer hope and encouragement to people who are discouraged and hopeless due to their pain or medical condition. I am able to do so out of my own strong faith in God and by being witness to the hardiness of the human spirit and body.

I am currently not accepting new clients. Sometimes we just need a safe place to express what we are going through in life; a place where we don't feel judged; a place where we can process, feel, and think about what is happening now and what is ahead of us. I work with adults of all ages in coping with life transitions, relationship struggles, anxiety, and depression. I have a special interest and focus in working with those who have experienced complex and developmental trauma which can show-up later in life as challenges in relationships, work, and achieving dreams and potential.

I have 17 years specialized training & experience in body-centered psychotherapies, working with trauma, post traumatic stress & moral injury. Neuroscience confirms trauma resides in the body; we know the body's wisdom guides the release of trauma perfectly with adequate safety, effective "witnessing," & mindful inner attention. Distressing thoughts, beliefs & social inhibition are the primary barriers to the body's ability to release trauma & re-wire the neurological system in a transformational process that decades of "talk therapy" could never accomplish. These powerful, highly effective interventions assure the debilitating effects of trauma are no longer something people must "live with."

Hi There! Choosing to begin therapy can feel frightening and takes a great amount of courage. I believe that therapy is a collaborative process between the client and the therapist. My goal is to establish a sense of hope and provide a warm atmosphere to encourage exploration and growth in the areas of your life that you feel could be improved. I love walking alongside my clients as they identify their strengths and find strategies to become their best selves.
