Great to meet you!

You can be grateful for the life you’ve built and still recognize that something needs to change. Maybe anxiety follows you through the day, stress has become your normal, motherhood has brought emotions you weren’t prepared for, or your relationships leave you questioning your own needs. Therapy can give you room to stop simply pushing through and start paying attention to what you need, too. I provide virtual therapy for adults throughout Texas, helping clients navigate anxiety, stress management, maternal mental health, and relationship issues, with additional support for women’s issues, infertility, ADHD, depression, family concerns, bipolar disorder, and LGBTQIA+ related experiences. With seven years of experience, my goal is to create an affirming space where you feel respected and understood while also feeling empowered to challenge old patterns, develop new perspectives, and create meaningful change.

My approach to therapy

I don’t believe therapy should be a place where someone simply listens while you remain stuck in the same patterns. Our work will be collaborative, thoughtful, and grounded in a relationship built on trust and mutual respect. You may initially seek therapy for anxiety, overwhelming stress, maternal mental health concerns, or relationship difficulties and discover that these experiences are also connected to depression, family dynamics, ADHD, infertility, identity, or the expectations you’ve learned to carry. We’ll explore those connections without losing sight of the concerns that brought you to therapy in the first place. I primarily use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help you recognize how thoughts and beliefs influence emotions and behavior, while incorporating experiential techniques that allow us to explore patterns in a more active and personal way. Together, we’ll identify what is no longer serving you, strengthen what already is, and develop practical strategies that help you create change beyond our sessions.

What you can expect from me

Our first sessions are about creating clarity, not expecting you to arrive with all the answers. We’ll talk about what brought you to therapy, what feels most difficult right now, and what you would genuinely like to be different. From there, we’ll create goals together and begin identifying the patterns, strengths, and practical next steps that can move you toward them. You can expect me to listen with empathy and respect while also challenging you when doing so can help you grow. Progress might mean responding differently to anxiety, setting healthier boundaries, communicating your needs more confidently, feeling more grounded during stressful moments, or reconnecting with parts of yourself that have been pushed aside. My hope is that you leave therapy not only understanding yourself more clearly, but trusting yourself more deeply and feeling equipped to create meaningful, lasting change.
