There are seasons of life when you realize you’ve changed, but you’re not entirely sure who you’ve become. Anxiety or depression may be affecting how you feel day to day, tension in your family or relationships may leave you emotionally drained, or you may have spent so much time meeting expectations that your own needs have become difficult to hear. I provide virtual and in person individual therapy for adolescents and adults throughout Texas, with a focus on anxiety, depression, family issues, relationship concerns, and women’s issues. I also support clients navigating trauma, PTSD, and stress when those experiences are contributing to the challenges they face today. My goal is to create a warm, affirming environment where you can step away from the pressure to have everything figured out, understand yourself more clearly, and begin reconnecting with the person you want to be.

The counseling relationship between you and I is one of mutual respect and responsibility. Starting with understanding where you are now and the challenges you are facing, we will work together to help you move forward and reach your goals. Therapy is a process that takes place in a non-judgmental environment where you are free to share your thoughts, emotions, and concerns.

I work with older adolescents, adults and couples. Clients come to me for a variety of reasons including recent or past trauma, various forms of abuse, relationship difficulties, life stresses and transitions, depression, grief, anxiety, as well as personal growth and development, among others.
