Find a therapist in Pflugerville, TX — covered by insurance

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.

You don't have to be in crisis to want therapy. Maybe life is mostly working, but something isn't. You might be dealing with life or work stress, relationship patterns, dating, sexual concerns, anxiety, overthinking, or simply feeling stuck and wanting something to change.

I tend to work best with people who are thoughtful, self-aware, and willing to get curious about themselves. You don't need to know exactly what is wrong or have the right words for it. "Something is bothering me" is enough. What matters more is that you're willing to look honestly at what happens, when it happens, and how you show up in it.

My style is direct, curious, collaborative, and active. We won't just talk about what happened. We'll pay attention to what comes up in session, explore the emotions, needs, and patterns underneath your reactions, and work on responding differently when it matters.

I'm neurodivergent and highly sensitive myself, and my practice is sex-positive, queer-affirming, kink-aware, and welcoming of polyamory and ENM. You don't need to censor or explain who you are here. Come curious and ready to participate. We'll figure out the rest together.
