Hello and welcome! I am a Licensed Professional Counselor Associate who focuses on providing high quality affirming care for the mind, body, and spirit. My embodied approach is influenced by the personal and professional results I’ve experienced when focusing on repairing and strengthening your nervous system. My clients often invest in long-term therapy where we are able to focus on maintaining results that last.

My clients are often anxious Gen-Z and Millennial individuals who care deeply about being the best and in no way a burden to others. They have been told they are overly sensitive and often have difficulty being able to truly rest and feel at ease inside themselves. Difficulty managing their emotions shows up in their relationships and often prevents them from showing up authentically in life and love. 

Together in session, we will explore and unravel the roots of your shame and learn to embrace all parts of yourself with compassion. Our process will begin gently through creating a stronger connection between your mind and body to provide more immediate symptom relief. You will not only be taught skills to regulate your own emotions and have more control over your anxious thoughts, but also why you are activated and how to navigate future challenges. With guided support, we will move toward the path of processing wounds from difficult past experiences so that you are able to release unhelpful patterns and access emotional freedom, self-confidence, and healthy relationships. 

With my experience, I’m equipped to accurately diagnose and craft effective treatment plans, even for those who have previously struggled to find success in therapy. Our sessions provide a space for you to safely explore and challenge limiting beliefs and unhelpful patterns. You are able to authentically express yourself without the need to mask or perform so there is room to focus on your own unique needs. 

If you feel my approach resonates with you, I encourage you to schedule a consultation today.

My credentials include:

  • Counseling experience with older adolescents, and young adult professionals (early 20’s-mid 30’s)
  • Licensed Professional Counselor Associate, provisionally licensed in Texas
  • M.Ed. Clinical Mental Health Counseling

My client focus includes:

  • Individuals 16+
  • Anxiety (Generalized, Panic, Social)
  • Attachment and relationship issues (monogamous and polyamorous)
  • Burnout 
  • Neurodivergence support (ADHD)
  • Self-exploration (professional, personal, gender identity, sexual orientation etc.)
  • Identify as “sensitive” & “people-pleasers”
  • Highly self-aware, overthinkers – often feel disconnected from their bodies or emotionally overwhelmed
  • Struggle with guilt & shame
  • Survivors of trauma (betrayal, childhood, generational, sexual, religious)

Personally: 

I love grounding through art and movement. Relaxing for me lately looks like making bracelets for the next concert I’m attending, walking my 2 yr old dog, practicing yoga, and coloring new scenes from the Bobbie Goods adult coloring book. I’m your friendly neighborhood neurodivergent book worm who frequents the monthly art night and is often glued to a Spotify playlist. Novelty and creativity is essential in my day-to-day life and I love bringing that into my therapy sessions.
