About My Clients
Are you looking for a safe place to share your thoughts and feelings? I work with individuals and couples within the LGBTQIA and BIPOC communities, individuals struggling with maternal mental health, psychosis, depression/anxiety, self-esteem, & intimate relationships. I am a poly-friendly therapist. I understand there are many paths to being healthy and whole. Welcome to a safe place of non-judgment.
My Background and Approach
I use a variety of modalities in counseling practice, depending on client needs. Many clients benefit greatly from techniques rooted in Cognitive Behavior Therapy/Rational Emotive Behavior Therapy, in which they identify/catch/change unhealthy thoughts (thereby uplifting their own mood - essentially becoming their own therapist). Others who are on a time limit benefit from Solution Focused Brief Therapy. Those who have experience past traumas can be helped greatly with EMDR. In addition, we may dip a toe in Acceptance & Commitment therapy/Mindfulness, Motivational Interviewing, and always Person Centered counseling.
My Personal Beliefs and Interests
Based on my upbringing, lived experience, and great love of my diverse family & friends, I am a staunch ally and supporter of LGBTQIA, BIPOC, and women's rights issues. When time allows, I am active in rallies, walks, fundraisers, and protests for the above-mentioned causes (GLSEN, HRC, BLM). I believe it's important to speak up for those who are unable to do so. Additionally, environmental causes are important to me, as I have two young sons (teenagers) that will inhabit this earth after I am gone. I love animals (especially dogs), and nature. I enjoy paddle-boarding on a quiet morning around the central Texas area.
