The tools that I'll provide you with are tools that I have been perfecting over my career, helping people just like you. My goal for you is to have several different tools and techniques that you can carry with you at all times. So no matter where you go, you'll always have access to discreet exercises that can quickly create relief. I work from a trauma-informed care perspective. We'll work collaboratively to address what it is that is bothering you right now. We'll start with what's going on in the moment and how to get control over your body and thoughts. For the past 14 years, I have been working with persons who have survived trauma. Together, you and I will address what's going on in your brain when you feel anxious, sad, scared, upset. We will discuss what happens to your body when fear takes over, so you can learn how to quickly calm down. You can heal from the past. Let us walk together, and I can show you that you are not damaged, but rather just waiting to blossom.

I believe that everyone can change and grow at any time in their lives. I think the main reason we develop mental health concerns is because we are experiencing a normal reaction (fear, sadness, grief, etc.) to an abnormal circumstance (trauma, death, abuse, etc.). I believe in the power of labeling what is going on, and through acceptance of our lived experience, we can take back the power of our experience, and blossom. I am an Army Brat (my mother wore Combat Boots - like, the day I was born). I have seen a lot of the world, walked through fire, and got a little singed along the way. My personal truth: I know the way out of this mess, and I can show you the way out, too. I love snowball fights, but those are hard to come by, in Texas. Thus, I can be found on horseback, when not engaged in work or parenting. I don't discriminate against anyone. I am here for you, whether you are on the ranch, on campus, in the city, or somewhere in between. I look forward to sitting with you!
