Great to meet you!

I take a collaborative, client-centered approach, seeing you as the expert of your own life. My role is to foster curiosity and self-discovery so you feel empowered to heal, grow, and create meaningful change. I strive to provide a warm, safe, and nonjudgmental space for our work together.

I hold a master’s degree in family therapy and believe that understanding your early experiences can lead to greater self-awareness and self-compassion. I am licensed in Texas and bring a broad, culturally informed perspective shaped by living in multiple countries.

I specialize in working with high-functioning women and couples, helping clients develop practical tools and insights that support lasting growth.

My approach to therapy

I am trained in Somatic EMDR and perinatal mental health, and I take a collaborative approach with all of my clients. Together, we build curiosity around your patterns and experiences, while developing practical skills that support meaningful, lasting growth.

What you can expect from me

In the first two sessions, we will focus on building a strong therapeutic relationship. I’ll invite you to share your story at your own pace while asking thoughtful questions to understand your patterns and experiences better. Together, we’ll identify your goals and create a clear direction for your treatment.
