I've had success with parenting issues & improving communication between couples & families. Other specializations: career counseling, cross-cultural issues, mindfulness training, dream-work, & boundary setting. I completed my Bachelors of Arts degree in Interdisciplinary Studies in 2005, upon completion I became an educator in Texas.

Early in my career, I received in-depth, specialized counseling & advocacy training at Hays Caldwell County Women’s center. Here, I learned to work effectively with groups & individuals with a history of abuse.

My Personal Beliefs and Interests
I have an eclectic yet practical psycho-dynamic approach to therapy. I combine person centered and cognitive behavior therapy strategies with mindfulness training and psycho-educational intervention. The specific way in which we work will be determined by your specific goals for therapy. I believe it all begins with radical acceptance. A safe place can provide you with the freedom to address your current struggles and long standing patterns of unhealthy thinking and behavior that steal your peace
