WELCOME
“The privilege of a lifetime is to become who you truly are.”
― C.G. Jung
My Services & Approach
Welcome. I’m a Texas psychotherapist, Brainspotting therapist, yoga teacher, and wellness group facilitator with over 15 years of experience supporting individuals through trauma, and grief (including pet loss), traits of high sensitivity (HSP), difficult relationships, chronic illness and pain, anxiety, depression, and maintaining recovery from substance abuse.
​
Grounded in the science of the brain, behavior, and relationships, I use insights from neuroscience to help you understand unhelpful coping patterns and develop tools that support greater resilience and life-satisfaction.
​
I’ve dedicated my career to studying trauma informed mind-body approaches such as Brainspotting, yoga, meditation, animal and nature-based practices, and Buddhist-informed philosophies. I integrate these holistic modalities with modern, evidence-based therapies to help you cope, heal, and find relief from suffering.
My approach resonates with those seeking a deeper, more relational, and intuitive path to psychotherapy and healing.
​
I offer in-person and virtual sessions to people located in Texas. My in-person office is located in East Austin, TX and provides a psychotherapy setting that feels less clinical. My office waiting "room" is in the yard- where you can listen to the birds chirping and breathe in nature before your session. I find that officing in a less clinical setting can lead to a feeling of expansion and healing for your mind-heart-soul.
I look forward to supporting you and helping you thrive.

Individual Therapy & Brainspotting Sessions
55 Min Individual Session, $185
At some point in their life, every human experiences loss, illness, stress, and heartbreak. Psychotherapy can help.
Keeping in mind that stressors and our experiences are held in our minds and hearts, as well as our bodies, I integrate mind-body-soul interventions into psychotherapy sessions to enhance the talk therapy process and enable you to work at a deeper, more integrative level that supports lasting change.
​
My goal is to help you find ways to thrive no matter what you are facing.

​Losing a beloved companion animal, or facing their decline and end-of-life decisions, can be an overwhelming and isolating experience. You don’t have to go through this alone. I offer support for both pet loss grief and anticipatory grief, helping you navigate this tender and difficult time.
​
As a lifelong animal lover, advocate, and the mother of a cat, dogs, and chickens, I deeply understand the powerful bond between people and their animal companions. My goal is to honor your relationship with your pet while helping you process grief, access inner resilience, and move toward healing.
​
In addition to traditional talk therapy, I am trained in Brainspotting, a clinical tool that can be especially helpful in working through traumatic experiences such as sudden or traumatic pet loss.

My Co-Therapist
In his early life, Snoop ran the streets of East Austin with a wild chihuahua gang.
In the winter of 2011, I invited him off the streets and into my home and Snoop hasn’t left since.
Snoop worked hard to reform from life on the streets. With training, he earned his canine good citizen certificate. He has worked as a therapy dog for sexual assault survivor support groups, nursing homes, and on a memory care unit.
Snoop often accompanies me to the office, bringing comfort, joy, and a deep sense of attunement to the room.
If you would rather Snoop stay home, please let me know so he can take the hour off.
Around 15–20% of the population has what Dr. Elaine Aron identified as the high sensitivity trait. Some people find that their experiences of sensitivity overlap with aspects of being autistic or otherwise neurodivergent.
​
Do you relate to high sensitivity or neurodivergence?
​
-
You notice other people’s moods, subtle social interactions, or sensory details (smells, sounds, textures, small nuances) that others might miss.
-
You can become overwhelmed, overstimulated, or drained when life feels too intense, complex, or chaotic.
-
You may have been told you’re “too sensitive,” “too shy,” or that you “need thicker skin.”
-
Perhaps you were made to feel abnormal for noticing subtleties or having strong reactions to them.
​
Research shows that the brains of highly sensitive and neurodivergent people, including autistic people, process information more deeply. These differences are not flaws; they are meaningful parts of who you are.
Contact me to schedule your first appointment.
​
I can help you uncover the strengths and gifts of your sensitivity and neurodivergence, while also finding practical ways to cope with overwhelm and thrive in a world that isn’t always designed for sensitive or autistic people.
