I attended the University of Texas at Austin for my bachelor's degree, where I was a Chi Omega and served in college leadership with YoungLife. I returned to UT Austin to complete my graduate training in clinical counseling, where I received my Masters degree from the Department of Educational Psychology. I work with adult individuals and couples in therapy, including premarital counseling. I specialize in relational dissatisfaction, broken or conflictual relationships, and intergenerational family trauma. I enjoy working with clients on counseling goals related to breaking patterns, development of identity; purpose, relational conflict; communication, life transitions, spiritual growth, issues related to self-worth, forgiveness, shame, and grief; loss. I also have experience working with depression, anxiety, conflict resolution and divorce.
I am trained in Bowen Family Systems therapy. Working from a family systems perspective, I support you in exploring how past relationships and experiences influence your current relational patterns or existing troubles. I then work with you to process any pain, related fears, and anxiety in order to define values, identify options, and create new patterns to function as an individual and relate to others in ways that align with your goals. I invite you into the therapy process, to build both awareness and skills that will equip you to work towards your current goals as well as address future challenges.
Do you struggle with the gap between your reality and the life or relationships you want? Between the choices you make and who you want to be? Do you ever wonder how you got "here" and feel stuck or powerless to make changes? I'm here to help with that. There are ways forward. It can be better. I'd love to work with you towards your "better".
Twenty free minutes, no cost and no commitment. It ends in a recommendation, not an assignment, and you decide from there. If someone else on the team fits you better, they will say so.
Would you rather ask a question first? Our clinical practice manager is not in sessions and answers fastest, often same day and always within one business day.
