Born & raised in the Houston area, but the beautiful hill country of Austin has been my home for the last decade! I’ve been privileged by those who have allowed me to join their mental health journey — ranging from all walks of life in varietal backgrounds. I became a fully Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in June 2022 & captivated my passions in evolving into a Relational Therapist over the last 10 years. Human connection is vital to who we are, as interpersonal relationships & emotions create our identity. Through meaningful, authentic, and emotionally attuned connections, you can begin to heal the psychological wounds that prevent all you are capable to be.

I specialize working with adults in learning how complex traumatic experiences have shaped & altered their lives. If you suffer from C-PTSD, you likely experience emotional dysregulation, negative self-perception, and avoidance to painful memories/people/places. This drives us further away from our innate sense of belonging & engagement. I help my clients create their blueprint of an ideal future by healing the wounded past.

In our time together, we will collaborate often because it’s important I not only understand you, I hear you. You are the expert on your life & nobody knows your story better than you. Knowing your past is a gift, one I value greatly — as it’s the foundation upon which we were built & meant to grow, not sentenced to stay ‘stuck’ in auto-pilot. Our trusted relationship with one another begins to heal these emotional wounds caused by traumas — releasing what is no longer serving you, regaining your empowerment, & redefining your identity. It is a pure joy to experience the wins with you in this life, therapy does not have to be “just about the bad.” All parts of you are welcome — as I will always be rooting for you.

Therapeutic frameworks I practice from are Humanistic, Psychoanalytic, Cognitive, and Behavioral approaches — larger umbrella terms to target more specific beliefs & interventions within these therapy modalities. I am also specialty trained & actively practice Brainspotting (BSP) — a highly effective trauma treatment therapy that borrows from the healing powers of Somatic Experiencing & EMDR to reprocess traumatic memories.

As each of these skill sets is unique, so are you. I tailor my approach on what you need from me — ranging from more hands on & directive or free association. You are always driving this car, I’m just here to help you navigate.

Vulnerability can feel ominous, we typically shy away from it — subconsciously protecting ourselves. My hope is that by creating a space & personalized pace — the most authentic version of you can be present and unapologetically heard. The uncomfortable begins to become comfortable. I am here to support you from beginning to end and all the in between. I believe our ability to stabilize, recover, & evolve into who we want to become is always possible, it is never “too late.” Therapy takes immense courage at any stage, so whether you’re a ‘seasoned client’ or it’s your first time — be proud you took this step. Your past does not define you, the future is unknown, all we can control is the present.
