Find a therapist in Texas — covered by insurance

I'm a psychologist for those whose lives have been shaped by serious illness. Maybe the diagnosis is recent and you are still making sense of it. Maybe you have managed the same condition so long it has become background noise. Maybe you are caring for someone seriously ill, and your own days have been reshaped by it. Or maybe you work in medicine, and what you see does not stay at the door when your shift ends. The condition is rarely the only thing that needs attention. It touches your work, your relationships, and the plans you had made.

I earned my PhD in Clinical Psychology from Marquette University and trained in pediatric and congenital medical settings, working alongside hospital teams in the cardiac ICU, oncology, and neurology. That background means the medical side of your life doesn't need explaining before the work can start.

I work with children, in elementary grades and their families experiencing anxiety, behavioral concerns, emotional regulation difficulties, life transitions, trauma, and everyday stress. Many of my clients come to therapy feeling overwhelmed by situations that seem to keep repeating, unsure of how to help themselves or the people they love.

Recognizing the need for growth and change can feel intimidating, but taking that first step toward therapy shows courage and a willingness to invest in yourself. I create a warm, supportive space where clients can safely explore past and present experiences. Together, we work to understand patterns, emotions, and challenges that may be holding you back. I view therapy as a collaborative journey where we move at your pace while building insight, self-acceptance, and meaningful change. My goal is to help you reconnect with your strengths and move toward a more balanced, fulfilling life.

I have worked in the mental health field for over 20 years, seeing clients privately for almost 15. You can trust me to provide a supportive and safe environment. We will work together to build coping skills and confidence to take on life's daily challenges.

If you're a high-functioning, driven person who looks like you have it together—but internally you feel overwhelmed, anxious, or emotionally drained—you’re not alone.

You may be used to being the strong one... the dependable one... the one everyone leans on. But lately, it’s starting to feel exhausting.

You might find yourself overthinking everything, struggling to set boundaries without guilt, or constantly pushing through your day while feeling mentally drained. At some point, coping stops feeling like living.

Clients who work with me often go from:

• Constant overthinking → feeling more mentally clear and present

• People-pleasing → setting boundaries with confidence

• Anxiety-driven decisions → trusting themselves

• Emotional exhaustion → feeling more balanced and in control

The time we spend together will be collaborative, supportive, and tailored to your pace. My goal is to create a space where you feel comfortable being yourself while also gently challenging patterns that no longer serve you.

You don’t have to keep pushing through this alone. If you're ready for meaningful change, I’d be honored to work with you.
