Family therapy and counseling in Hutto, TX

I am a native Texan, auntie, ice cream-loving, roller skating, retired professional athlete who also happens to be a Therapist. My background in the world of mental health dates back 10 years, in my work with families of Autism, Substance abuse and misuse, Student-athletes, Life- transitions, and family therapy. I enjoy introducing people back to themselves as they unpack their past with grace and patience. If you are experiencing racing thoughts, overthinking, or people-pleasing, let our work together find the root cause and, from there, uncover solutions that work for you. I believe that therapy does not have to be "forever," and my role is to safely get you to a place of wholeness within your next quest and journey.

Professionally, I have spent a decade in education (five years as a classroom teacher and five years as a school counselor). This is my third year as a therapist outside of the school setting.

For my masters degree, I attended Texas State University in San Marcos, TX (Eat 'em up cats!). At Texas State, I completed my MA in Professional Counseling with two focuses: school counseling and clinical mental health.

As a former educator, the populations I support include adolescents, young adults, educators, parents/guardians, and caretakers.

I strive to empower clients to regain a sense of agency in their health and well‐being. With more than 30 years as a therapist, I understand that creating meaningful change can be both challenging and deeply rewarding. My role is to support you through that process with clarity, compassion, and tools that help you move toward the life you desire.

With a collaborative, creative and strengths-focused approach, I provide therapy to individuals and couples, covering issues including resolving troubles, communicating effectively, meeting challenges, or dealing with addiction. I’m a licensed professional counselor, and my integrative and holistic approach is able to help you with a very broad range of topics.
