Great to meet you!

First, I want you to know that I will always see the best in you, unconditionally, I believe that you are a good person and you are doing the best that you can. I earned my bachelors in psychology from Texas State University. After I graduated, I wasn’t sure which direction to go. I was drawn to the holistic nature of social work. We are all the blending of our experiences, beliefs, relationships and choices; all the good and all the bad.

My approach to therapy

My approach is a comprehensive past, present and future style of reflecting on your experience and future goals and aspirations. Together we will explore how your past has shaped your present experience. When you feel that you have grown in understanding and self awareness we will chart a path of growth together to help you realize the future you want for yourself. My primary treatment styles are EMDR, Ego State work (similar to IFS), building internal resources and attachment therapy.

What you can expect from me

During the first few appointments we will explore your history and work on identifying areas of distress in your life. You can expect to learn new skills and strategies to help you manage day to day struggles. You can also expect to work on deep healing of past experiences to diminish the pain and distress they cause in your life. 15 minute phone consultations available by request.
