Who I Am
I'm from Dallas but currently adventuring in Austin! Known as “honey girl” to the sweetest Granny Gran you’d ever meet, I'm the proud daughter of social justice warriors, baby sister to two, and big sister to one. Aunt is my favorite role of all! I love books, coffee, and belly laughs. I am endlessly curious about everything!

What I Do
I work with clients to co-create a space and relationship that allows for healing from harm that clients may have experienced in other spaces and relationships. I especially enjoy working with young adults, first-generation college students, sibling suicide loss survivors, and people working to heal their relationship with money.

Why I Do It
Our journey is not meant for us to walk alone, but to be rooted and trekked in community. I love being able to be a part of that community for clients.
MY APPROACH
Selecting the right therapist is important and we know it. Here's a bit about my vibe.
Intentional
You are ready for change. I want to help. From our initial consultation to your therapy graduation, I act with purpose, providing a balance of care, support, and challenge in all of our interactions.
Collaborative
I am bringing my education and experience, but you will always be the expert on you. We will work together to explore your challenges and strengths and to identify better paths toward your goals.
Hopeful
I have seen some of the toughest situations and I have hope even when you struggle to do so. When we can't make lemonade out of the lemons life gives us, it helps to have someone sit with us as we heal.

SPECIALTIES
I am qualified to counsel on a variety of challenges. Below are just a few areas I help clients with most.
Trauma & EMDR
Difficult experiences may leave us feeling lost and unlike ourselves. Trauma therapy can help you process the past to move forward to the future you deserve.
Grief & Loss
Loss is one the most difficult challenges we face in life and it can greatly alter how we navigate the world. Some loss can be traumatic and therapy can help you through this time.
College Student Concerns
Early adulthood is full of transition. College adds a number of stressors, particularly for first-generation college students.
Money & Mental Health
Our beliefs, values, and habits around money greatly impact our quality of life and well-being. Identifying and addressing the challenges can help .
