Anxiety wants to rewrite your life – I help you take back the pen
Have you felt trapped in an ocean of doubt for too long? Are you ready to feel like you again? Anxiety takes many forms and I come prepared with approaches that help you take back control and live your best life.
Imagine a life where you have the tools to go after your dreams. Imagine when panic was just a memory. It’s all possible.
If anxiety makes you stay up at night, avoid your friends, and family, or feel like you are just not good enough, it’s time to get help. Everyone gets anxious sometimes, but when anxiety is controlling your life it’s a slippery slope before you don’t feel like you anymore. In therapy we will design a plan for you so that you have the right mix of talk therapy, skills training, trauma work, positive affirmations, and gentle questioning to help you explore how you can cope better with your anxious thoughts.
Trauma Recovery
Are you wondering if you are strong enough for the path forward. You are. But everyone needs a guide on new paths. Let’s work together so that your paths lead somewhere great.
Hope can be found in the dark places
Trauma can make us feel locked away from our dreams, our family, friends, and the path forward to our best selves. As a TBRI practitioner and trauma specialist I am ready to walk the path with you so that you can heal and connect again.
Healing as a family? I know the power of parent child connection. As a TBRI practitioner I am honored to help you make a trauma informed environment at home, co-regulate, and teach your child that pain is a point on the journey, not the destination.

Frequently Asked Questions
How Do You Treat Children?
Treating children starts by involving their parent. I will ask you questions about your child and your family better understand what is happening in the world and set goals. Depending on the age of your child I may use games as a way to make them comfortable while we talk, may use art therapy techniques to communicate, or use play as a language to express themselves and rehearse different ways of understanding the world and coping with challenges. I will always involve you in their care and discuss ways to support their learning and growth at home. Generally, the younger the child the more play techniques I will use.
Is virtual therapy secure?
At my therapy practice, I prioritize your privacy and security. I use HIPAA-compliant platforms for video conferences and secure messaging. Rest assured, all your therapy sessions are private. Your personal information will be safeguarded and you can receive care wherever you are in Texas. Please see my notice of privacy practices for more information.
How will you know how to help me?
At the start of our therapeutic journey, we’ll conduct a thorough initial evaluation. During this session, we’ll discuss your symptoms, strengths, goals, and your preferred communication styles. Together, we’ll craft a treatment plan drawing from my extensive 19 years of experience in addressing similar challenges and utilizing evidence-based practices. Our collaborative approach ensures that your therapy is tailored to your unique needs. I offer therapy for anxiety, stress, and trauma but also have experience with several other disorders.
How can I use my insurance?
I am in network with several plans including Cigna, Aetna, Optum, United BCBS and many more and will submit billing for you. If you are private paying can get a superbill to submit to your insurance to access out of network benefits or use Thrizer which helps with out of network billing. Check your insurance plan to see what percentage they pay for out of network visits.
What if I have been in therapy before?
We can start with what has worked for you already and build from there. If you have struggled to find help in therapy before you might need something different than what you have done before. I have a flexible style and am able to adapt therapy for theories and practices that work best for you. Because I am cross trained in short and long term therapies I am able to offer you new options.
Can you prescribe medication?
I cannot prescribe medication but can refer you to a physician if you would like this. I am used to working closely with psychiatrists and can help you decide if it is time to make a referral to a physician for medication management.
