Katy, TX 77494
I am trained in EMDR and utilize various modalities including person-centered, psychodynamic, and existential.
I believe the more we show up as our authentic selves, the more fulfilling our lives will be. Sometimes our past mistakes, trauma, others' expectations, or fear of the unknown can get in the way of that. As your therapist, I will meet you where you are; anything you are feeling is welcome. Together, we will explore who you are and identify patterns and belief systems that are no longer helpful. I strive to provide a genuine and welcoming space where you feel seen, understood, and empowered.

Whether one seeks relief from anxiety, trauma, relational impasses, or life disillusionment, therapy can help. It is unfortunate that insufficiently engaged approaches to therapy, prohibitive rates, and the unconscionable reluctance of most clinicians to accept insurance fail so many clients, who in good faith seek to discover a healing of heart and mind. As a psychodynamic therapist, I view my role as an empathic change agent employed to help bring about a fuller knowledge of self and a more liberated experience of life and relationship. I also supervise highly promising interns from NWU available for as low as $15-30 per session.

I provide psychodynamic, insight-oriented therapy informed by attachment theory, mindfulness, and research based on shame, vulnerability, and resiliency.
I believe that the key to living a happier life is gaining a better understanding of yourself and the important relationships in your life. I believe that the reflection which happens inside the therapeutic alliance helps to lessen undesirable symptoms such as anxiety and depression. People come to therapy for a variety of reasons, but most people who make it to my office come because they have been suffering in some way. Therapy is a collaborative experience in which I help my clients to understand core struggles which cause pain and suffering in their lives.

I work with clients who have experienced trauma, whether it be recent or in childhood, those experiencing grief as a result of loss or from other life experiences, people facing terminal illness and the end of life, and those who are interested in engaging in a psychodynamic process to develop insight and awareness into how their past is expressing itself in the here and now. I enjoy working with clients who are ready to experience life more fully and to feel more at home in their bodies. Trauma and grief have a way of disconnecting us from our bodies, causing us to feel isolated and cut off from our own natural path toward healing.

I am drawn to the work of therapy because I believe it is in the context of relationships that we come to know the many facets of ourselves, and can encounter opportunities for profound growth and healing. I see the therapy process as one of joint exploration into the rich worlds both within and around us, and consider it a great privilege to think deeply with others about what matters most in their lives. In this process I draw from evidence-based treatments like psychodynamic, relational, and experiential approaches, while seeking to respond flexibly to the unique needs of my clients.
