As a therapist, supervisor, and consultant I hold a strong passion for facilitating healing, hope, and growth in response to painful and traumatic experiences. Through my work and life, I have come to have immense respect for the internal wisdom that is inherent to all. Experiencing how safe and caring connection is critical to our well-being and growth. In whatever role you need support, my hope is to meet you where you’re at and let your unique needs and goals lead the way.

Through training and experience, I understand that surviving childhood trauma, abuse, assault, unhealthy relationships, loss and other tragedies can leave you feeling overwhelmed, disconnected, and unsure how to move forward. It takes courage to recruit help when you feel vulnerable. You deserve support with the right balance of compassion, curiosity and expertise to begin the work of recovering and transforming. You have an innate potential to move towards health, and my role is to be responsive and creative in helping you access your potential to accomplish your goals.

Incorporating research supported approaches including EMDR, Internal Family Systems, and mindfulness are just a few pathways. These methods work with your brain’s organic ability to transform limiting beliefs, overwhelming emotions and physical sensations. When you work through blocks you access your power to live in a more adaptive and meaningful way.

My education includes a master’s in professional counseling, advanced training in trauma care, and trauma informed yoga training. As a Board Approved Supervisor in Texas, I can provide guidance for counselors working towards licensure. As a clinical consultant, I assist mental health professionals in enhancing their competence, especially with complex trauma cases and the use of EMDR therapy.

Looking forward to the opportunity to connect with you and to contribute to your goals.
