Holistic Jungian therapist specializing in trauma and relationships
I am a licensed family and marriage therapist based in Austin, Texas with over 20 years of experience. Throughout my career I have worked with a diverse population providing mental health counseling, relational/marital counseling and life coaching. I have worked with a broad range of concerns including anxiety, depression, eating disorders, career challenges, self esteem, dementia, alzheimer and LGBTQIA+ issues. I have a deep understanding of the Enneagram.
My counseling style is caring and interactive. I believe in treating everyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion, and I don’t believe in stigmatizing labels. My approach to counseling combines client-centered, cognitive-behavioral, and solution focused therapy. I will tailor our dialog and treatment plan to meet your unique and specific needs. I will work with you to discover strategies, solutions and insights to help you practice new ways to thrive and become your best self.
It takes courage for a person to seek a more fulfilling and happier life and to take the first step towards change. If you are ready to take that step I am here to support and empower you.
I look forward to working with you!

Many people wonder whether remote therapy really helps. For common issues such as stress, anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, or navigating life transitions, online therapy has been shown to be as effective as traditional in-person sessions.
A major benefit is flexibility – clients can connect in the format that suits them best, including video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or in-app messaging. This adaptability makes it easier to fit regular therapy into a busy life.
All therapists involved are licensed professionals, and individuals may change therapists at any time if they want a different fit. Online therapy offers an accessible option for many people seeking support with everyday mental health concerns.
