Education & Experience

I got my Bachelor’s degree in psychology because I’ve always been fascinated with how the mind works. I moved to Austin to be close to my sister and nephew and pursue my Master's of Arts in Counseling from St. Edward’s University. Ever since I was little, I loved listening to everyone’s stories and helping people. I truly knew from a young age that I had an innate ability that was meant for supporting others. I work with Neurodiversity (Autism, ADHD), learning differences (APD), sensory differences, life transitions, trauma, anxiety, and depression. I always crave additional training, so I completed my EMDR certification and became certified in Perinatal Mental Health. I am Neurodivergent (AuDHD) and have a deeper understanding of the experience. I offer a more progressive approach in EMDR that is a better fit for Autistic ADHD people. My goal is to support moms and dads, as well as Neurodivergent parents. I completely believe in the importance of focusing on the mind-body connection and will, at times, incorporate mindfulness coping strategies to reduce stress. In sessions, I have a more person-centered and collaborative approach. I will always be open to constructive feedback, wanting to know what is working for you and what aspects haven’t served you in the past. I address correcting negative behaviors, identifying triggers, and self-defeating thoughts. I also focus on attachment theory by breaking old patterns and creating new healthy boundaries. I work with Autistic People and ADHDer's, learning differences, trauma (PTSD), life transitions, anxiety, and depression. I am EMDR certified and became certified in perinatal mental health (conception- 1 year postpartum). I support moms and dads, especially those who are neurodivergent. I am a mom and know how amazing yet completely life-changing becoming a parent can be. I want you to feel seen and cared for. The truth is I care about every one of my clients. I am your therapist all year round, not just for an hour each week. Therapy can feel overwhelming at first but I go at whatever pace feels best. We can take it slow if needed. Every person is different, and I see you for you. I am great at finding what makes you unique and empowering those beautiful parts of you.
