About My Clients

You may feel deeply, think hard, and care a lot, but you feel stuck in old patterns that leave you anxious, disconnected, or burnt out. I work best with introspective adults navigating anxious attachment, betrayal trauma, religious deconstruction, and LGBTQ+ identity in Denton, TX. My clients want clarity, connection, and a therapist who meets them with honesty, depth, and heart. If that sounds like you, you're in the right place.

My Background and Approach

I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist in Texas with a Master's degree in Human Development and Family Sciences. I bring advanced training in attachment theory, betrayal trauma, religious trauma, and LGBTQ+ affirmative care. My approach integrates IFS, Systems Theory, and The Developmental Model alongside emotionally focused and relational methods. This blend allows me to tailor therapy uniquely to each client's needs, helping you untangle complex patterns and build healthier relationships. You'll experience a therapy space that is both emotionally attuned and direct, where deep understanding meets honest challenge to support real, lasting change and greater presence in your life. I am expressive, attuned, emotionally honest, and unafraid to challenge you when you need it. I see therapy as a space for truth-telling, reclaiming your parts, and learning how to stay present with your life.

My Personal Beliefs and Interests

I believe therapy is a brave, honest partnership rooted in respect, authenticity, and empathy. I am proudly pro-LGBTQ+ and committed to creating an affirming space where all identities are welcomed and honored. I believe in the inherent dignity and worth of every person, and I actively support equality and social justice. I also respect all bodily autonomy and the right to make informed decisions about one's own health. I stand alongside all communities facing discrimination in the U.S., including but not limited to Black, Indigenous, people of color (BIPOC), immigrants, disabled individuals, and religious minorities. My approach is grounded in listening deeply and advocating for clients' needs while encouraging courage and growth. I am dedicated to walking alongside clients who want to bring their full selves to therapy and to life with integrity and compassion.
