Accepting Clients

Counseling is BIG stuff, and it takes courage to start the process.

Licensed Professional Counselor in Austin, TX

About My Clients

I work with children, teens, parents, young adults, and families (nuclear, separation/divorce, and blended).

My Background and Approach

I would say that my work’s foundation is built upon empathy and compassion that infuses different frameworks such as Motivational Interviewing, Mindfulness, Solution Focused Therapy, Cognitive Behavior Therapy, Family Systems, Dialectical behavior therapy and Strength Based Therapy. Additionally, I have specialized training in working with families in Parent Child Interactive Therapy (PCIT) to help kids 2-6 Years old by encouraging positive interactions between parents and children and by training parents how to implement consistent and nonviolent discipline techniques when children act out.
