My Background and Approach
I worked in treatment centers for youth after college and later earned a Master’s in Social Work from UT Austin. After graduate school, I attended four years of seminars in psychoanalytic psychotherapy. In recent decades I have educated myself about attachment theory, IPBN, and recognition of the central importance of how trauma shapes our personality. All of that translates to mean my working style is warm, interactive, and based on the latest research in psychology. I will listen actively when you are talking and coach you through times when you feel you have nothing to say. In addition to my psychological learning, I am an RN and worked as a psychiatric nurse for nine years.
