About My Clients

I work with adults who feel stuck in old patterns of people-pleasing, overthinking, and emotional exhaustion. Many of my clients have experienced trauma — sometimes obvious, sometimes the kind that quietly shapes how you see yourself and others. You may be high-functioning but constantly on edge, or you might notice that your nervous system never fully relaxes. My clients want more than coping skills; they want real change and a deeper sense of peace.

My Background and Approach

I’m a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in both Texas and Colorado, offering virtual therapy for residents in both states. My approach is grounded in warmth, curiosity, and collaboration. I use EMDR therapy and other trauma-informed techniques to help the body and mind process what’s been stuck — not just talk about it. We’ll slow things down, explore what safety actually feels like, and build new ways of responding to life that don’t come from survival mode. You won’t find rigid “homework” or surface-level advice here. Instead, I’ll meet you where you are, help you understand what’s happening beneath the surface, and support you in making lasting changes at your own pace.

My Personal Beliefs and Interests

I believe healing happens when we stop trying to be who we think we should be and start reconnecting with who we really are. Therapy isn’t about “fixing” you — it’s about remembering yourself. Outside of sessions, I’m usually spending time near the water, reading something a little mysterious or magical, or hanging out with my emotional support pup, Jules (who occasionally makes virtual cameos). I bring humor, realness, and a genuine belief in your capacity to heal to every session.
