During difficult times, it can be helpful to find someone who provides a safe space for connection, support, and healing.

My main priority is the quality of our relationship, building and deepening our connection while strengthening and empowering you to be your most healthy and authentic self.

I work from a collaborative, strength-based approach; assisting and supporting clients with tools and strategies that focus on increasing happiness and well-being. I consider a client’s strengths, capabilities, and potential very valuable in their journey towards change and achieving their goals.

PERSONAL
I was born and raised in Austin, Texas. (A unicorn!) When I am not working you can find me spending time with family and friends, enjoying live music, and loving every moment with my stubborn (but sweet) English Bulldog, Bowser.
