Great to meet you!

One of the most exciting things in therapy is creating a space where individuals recognize their strengths and potential. I enjoy listening and learning about my clients, using a strength based perspective on who they are and where they are going. I have been a social worker in the Austin area for 15 years and, the best part of it all, is meeting resilient individuals working on becoming their best selves.

My approach to therapy

I work with clients as they struggle with anxiety, depression, life transitions, grief, and relationship issues. I assist people with recognizing generational and historical trauma, processing why our actions are in conflict with who we may want to be.

What you can expect from me

Clients will learn coping skills, practical goal setting, and acceptance in our sessions. We will discuss what is in our power and what is not. Change can start with simple every day tasks, and that’s where I start with my clients.
