I work alongside my clients to empower them to choose their own future, and find the path to the future within themselves. To empower my clients, I utilize an eclectic approach based on cognitive behavior therapy, acceptance and commitment therapy, and internal family systems. I received a Masters in Social Work from the University of Texas at Arlington and have worked in both inpatient and partial hospitalization settings as well as private practice for a total of 4 years. I'm a native Texan but I also lived in Chicago for 8 years before moving back to my home state.
What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?
If you choose to reach out to me, we’ll start with a 15 minute consultation to discuss your goals for therapy and what approach might work best for you. Then, you are free to decide whether you want to try working together on choosing your future. If you'd like to see if we can work together, please feel free to reach out. I can't wait to meet you!
Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.
I believe that my clients steer the "therapy car" in the direction they need the most, and I do my best to help them clarify where they want the therapy car to go and how they would most like to get there.

VirtualMy treatment methods
Acceptance and commitment (ACT)
ACT is effective for anxiety, and I have taught psychoeducation classes with this theory.
Mindfulness-Based Therapy
I utilize mindfulness in conjunction with other theories to assist in regulating intense emotions that show up in therapy and to build the therapeutic relationship.
Internal Family Systems (IFS)
IFS is particularly helpful in working with intense feelings of shame or unworthiness. When we look at parts of ourselves that cause us distress, we can bring cohesion to ourselves.
