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.

I help women who struggle with over-giving and self-trust to break the cycle of self-abandonment and build relationships rooted in clarity, confidence, and emotional safety. Many of my clients come to me feeling disconnected from their needs, dissatisfied in their connections, or finding themselves repeating the same painful patterns. You may have learned to push down your emotions or minimize your needs, and you're just exhausted.

I have almost 20 years of experience working with adults and children in the State of Texas who are dealing with mental health issues.
You don’t need to come in with everything figured out. You just need to be willing to take a closer look.
On the outside, you may look like you have it together—career, family, responsibilities. But internally, something feels off. Maybe it shows up as stress, irritability, feeling disconnected, or repeating patterns you don’t fully understand. You might not have the words for it yet—and that’s okay. Life can feel overwhelming when stress, anxiety, or life transitions throw you off balance. My goal is to help you regain stability and confidence by identifying challenges, so you can move forward with clarity and resilience.

I'm a queer therapist here to provide an affirming space for couples and individuals in need of support!
