Hi, I'm Kat! I use IFS and brainspotting to help individuals, couples, and families get more of what they want in life.

About My Clients

I work with adults in Texas who want to feel better. Many of my clients struggle with relationship challenges. They're often successful in many areas of their lives, but they feel like they're going through the motions, stuck in old patterns. Together, we find ways for them to feel more alive. I also work with couples and families, especially blended families, who want to communicate better and resolve disagreements. Together, we find ways to move past conflict and into connection.

My Background and Approach

When we want to heal trauma, it's important to do more than talk--we have to take the body and our emotions into account as well. That's why I love Internal Family Systems (IFS) and am certified in this model. By getting to know the many parts of ourselves, we can make big changes. I'm also a Certified NARM Therapist and am working toward brainspotting certification. Both approaches blend well with IFS. In a typical session, we'll explore reactions, sensations, feelings, and beliefs to help you move past your blocks. Every client is different, so in addition to IFS and brainspotting, I bring a well-rounded toolbox and tailor my approach to each individual, couple, or family.

My Personal Beliefs and Interests

I believe everyone can heal from even the most challenging circumstances. I don’t believe in diagnoses, and I don’t believe there’s anything wrong with you. If you’re seeking therapy, you’re taking steps to help yourself, and that’s always a good thing! I believe the way you feel and act makes sense based on your life experiences. Your feelings matter—they’re giving you important messages. After all, emotions are simply energy in motion, and it’s important to get that energy moving. By getting to know the many parts of ourselves, we can better understand why we do the things we do and feel the way we feel. If something doesn’t make sense, it’s our job to get curious.
