Great to meet you!

Anxiety, low mood, poor sleep, or a health condition that won't let up can start to shape every part of your day. I am a licensed clinical psychologist in Texas and Kansas with more than 5 years of experience. My background includes years at the VA, most recently in primary care behavioral health, where I helped adults manage stress, mood, and health concerns. I work with adults and seniors facing anxiety, depression, sleep problems, chronic health conditions including pain and headaches, and men's issues.

My approach to therapy

My approach is practical: we figure out what is keeping you stuck and work on it in steps that fit your life. I often use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to change the thought patterns that feed anxiety and low mood, and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to help you live by what matters, even when things are hard. When depression has drained your energy, Behavioral Activation helps us rebuild your routine, and Motivational Interviewing helps when you are unsure about making a change. I help individuals more forward in ways that are most meaningful for them.

What you can expect from me

In our first session, we will talk about what brought you in, how it is affecting your life and what you want to change. You can also ask me anything about therapy. When you are ready, reach out here to find a time.
