I take a trauma-informed collaborative approach to working with anxiety, depression, relationship challenges and life transitions.

I am a therapist that welcomes all, humbly, and strives to build community with those I encounter. You are welcome here, however you may be.

Healing isn't about forgetting the past. It's about changing the way it affects your present. Whether you're working through anxiety, depression, trauma, eating disorder recovery, or difficult life transitions, therapy can help you better understand the patterns that have been keeping you stuck while creating healthier ways to move forward.

With nearly a decade of experience working with adults, I provide a warm, collaborative, and supportive space where you can feel understood without judgment. My goal is to help you make sense of what's contributing to your current challenges, build on your existing strengths, and develop practical tools that support meaningful, lasting change. Whether you're navigating anxiety, stress, trauma, eating disorders, grief, ADHD, or relationship concerns, we'll work together to help you feel more grounded, confident, and connected to yourself.

Looking for guidance to work through trauma? Feeling stuck in your relationship? Wondering about your life’s purpose? You’re not alone. We all face challenges at different points in our lives, and sometimes we need support to find self-awareness and compassion—both essential to healing. Using evidence-based approaches like IFS and EMDR, I help support emotional and mental health goals. I believe we all have the innate ability to feel, heal, discover, and live a more uplifting life. All it takes to begin is the willingness to take that first step and trust the process.

I know how difficult it can be to take this first step. As a clinician my goal is to give you the space to explore who you are, what is not serving you in your life, hold on to what is still serving you, and get to where you want to be through integrating new learning through the process. As a clinician I understand that navigating the many systems of our society brings numerous challenges for youth, adolescents, and families.

My ideal client is someone wrestling with feelings of shame, guilt, and a lack of authenticity. They may be navigating societal pressures or personal challenges that keep them from embracing who they are fully. Often, they feel held back by the weight of living up to others' expectations and yearn for a life where they can be unapologetically themselves. They want a space to explore and validate their lived experiences, uncover their genuine self, and build a life that feels both radically authentic and fulfilling.

I take an active role in therapy and typically don't do the minimalistic responses - though there is a time and place for this. I like to have conversational-style dialogue with clients, and feel that I am open and empathic while bringing in humor and "realness" to the session; I show up as my true self as much as possible.

I received my Bachelor of Science in Psychology from Texas A&M University, and my MS in Counseling Psychology from SMU.

The primary modalities I find most impactful are EMDR (I am an EMDRIA Certificied EMDR Therapist and EMDR Consultant-In-Training/CIT) with an attachment-focused and polyvagal theory lens.

I hold advanced training in EMDR, ART, Brainspotting, Trauma Conscious Yoga Method, and others. I am an expert in treating trauma with medication-assisted psychotherapy and have completed numerous trainings in training from MAPS PBC, as well as a year-long fellowship in with the Integrative Psychiatry Institute (Headway does not allow these services on their platform).

I am licensed in over 15 states and am a board-approved Associate counselor supervisor in multiple states as well, where I oversee the required supervised hours of associate-level counselors working towards their full licensure status.

In my non-therapy time, I enjoy cooking (and eating - I'm a bit of a foodie), concerts, reading, traveling, being outside, pilates (all hail the reformer!), and playing golf with my husband. We live in Austin, TX with our dog, Otter.
