Stress, burnout, relationship challenges, emotional overwhelm, or the pressure of constantly holding it all together - sound familiar? My clients are ambitious, capable people who are quietly struggling, and seek not only to feel better but also to understand themselves better in the process.
My approach is warm, inquisitive, and solution-oriented.
If your goal is to strengthen relationships, navigate life transitions, and create a life that feels more connected, meaningful, and sustainable, then I'm your huckleberry. Whether you're navigating a challenging season, feeling stuck, or simply looking to live more intentionally, our work together will be a space to slow down, reconnect with yourself, and move forward with greater clarity and confidence.
I work best with clients who are navigating anxiety, grief, trauma, life transitions, and everyday stress. Many come to therapy feeling overwhelmed, stuck, emotionally exhausted, or unsure of how to move forward. My ideal clients are looking for a supportive space to process what they are carrying, better understand themselves, and begin healing at a pace that feels right for them. I believe people heal best when they feel truly seen, heard, and understood. My approach to counseling is grounded in kindness, empathy, consistency, and genuine human connection.
For the past 20 years, I have worked in educational counseling and mental health support with children and adolescents ages 5–18. During that time, I’ve had the privilege of walking alongside students and families through some of life’s most challenging and meaningful moments. For the last 14 years, I have also practiced as a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC), helping clients build emotional resilience, confidence, and practical tools for everyday life.
My experience includes working extensively with anxiety, executive functioning challenges, academic stress, goal setting, grief, and trauma. I understand how overwhelming life can feel when emotions, responsibilities, or past experiences begin to weigh heavily. I also know that healing and growth are possible with support, patience, and the right therapeutic relationship.
I am a licensed therapist and specialize in helping people navigate anxiety, stress and uncertainty. My unique approach focuses on quieting your mind and calming your nervous system. I help you clear out the noise and learn skills and techniques to limit stress and overload based on brain science.

Headway makes it easier to find family-focused support — from finding the right provider, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.
Finding family therapists in Austin starts with identifying what your family wants help navigating. Family therapy can support parenting conflict, adolescent struggles, blended family dynamics, family of origin counseling, and communication patterns across generations. A family therapist is trained to work with the relational system, not just one person. As you compare family counselors in Austin, read each therapist’s profile for training, listed specialties, and experience with family dynamics that match your needs.
Austin has many therapy options, from central neighborhoods to South Austin, North Austin, and nearby areas, which can make it harder to narrow the list. Consider whether in-person sessions near home, school, or work fit best, or whether virtual appointments make it easier for more family members to attend. Family therapy may include the full family, smaller groups, or individual members at different points. Reviewing a therapist’s bio can help you understand their session structure, approach, availability, and whether they offer a free phone consultation before booking.
Austin Texas therapy can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to lower session costs and make ongoing care easier to plan for. Headway lets you search for family therapists who are accepting new patients, compare virtual and in-person options, and see your estimated out-of-pocket cost before you book. You can browse therapists, review bios, and book directly when you’re ready.
If anyone in your family is experiencing or worried about abuse, threats, or coercion, joint family or couples therapy usually isn't the right starting point — individual support is safer. The Childhelp National Child Abuse Hotline (1-800-422-4453) and National Domestic Violence Hotline (1-800-799-7233, or text START to 88788\) can help you think through next steps.
