Trauma and PTSD therapists & psychiatrists in Buda, TX

If your mind won’t slow down, you keep overthinking your decisions, or you feel stuck in patterns you can’t break, you’re not alone. Many people come to therapy feeling overwhelmed or frustrated that they understand what’s wrong—but still can’t seem to change it. I help you get to the root of those patterns so real change can happen. Instead of just managing symptoms, we work on understanding what’s driving them—so you can feel more in control, less reactive, and more confident in how you respond to your life.

I primarily work with men and older teenage boys (17+) dealing with anxiety, emotional shutdown, anger, panic, burnout, shame, relationship struggles, trauma, or a constant feeling of being stuck in survival mode. Many of my clients are highly self-aware but still feel trapped repeating the same patterns despite understanding themselves intellectually.

My style is direct, grounded, and practical without becoming cold or overly clinical. I work especially well with clients who are tired of vague therapy conversations and want help understanding what is actually driving the problem beneath the surface. I’ve worked in settings ranging from emergency rooms to juvenile facilities, and those experiences shaped a therapy style focused on clarity, accountability, emotional honesty, and meaningful forward movement.

After 15 years in tech marketing, I went to the University of Texas at Arlington to earn my Master's in Social Work. Upon graduation, I worked toward my clinical license at a Partial Hospitalization and Intensive Outpatient Program. Here, I worked with clients with severe mental health problems to find stability and gain the tools necessary to find success in life after program. This setting allowed me to work across the full spectrum of mental health issues, specifically with mood and personality disorders, trauma, self-harm, suicidal ideation, psychosis, and other high-acuity issues.

My practice started out of a deep desire to help heal trauma passed down through generations. As a child of two trauma survivors myself, I know that these wounds can begin in childhood and follow us well into our adult lives. My goal is to work together to notice and intervene in harmful patterns that keep us trapped in cycles of pain and heartbreak.
