Focus
Teens, Young Adults (18-30), Adults, Elders (65+)
I specialize in working with individuals (16+) and couples/intimate partnerships struggling with trauma/PTSD, anxiety, depression, grief and loss, emotional regulation, and conflict in relationships. My clients value my honesty, warmth, humor, and occasional asides about my pets, books, or video games. I prioritize building a strong relationship with my clients and believe that therapy is a space that must accommodate both celebrations and setbacks. My clients are neurodivergent, LGBTQ+, and their loved ones who need tools to better understand and support each other in their relationship. I utilize a blend of interpersonal neurobiology, narrative, and IFS approaches to help my clients understand their story and the ways they have power to change it. For couples, I integrate Gottman approaches and interventions. Additionally, I embrace a systemic and non-pathologizing approach to therapy because I care more about providing support than dictating a diagnosis.

A Little About Me
I moved to Austin from the east coast in the summer of 2017 with my family. We currently have two cats and a dog, all named after Final Fantasy characters. When I’m not working, you can find me at home reading, writing, gaming, playing piano, or tending my houseplants. You might also catch me “out in the wild” at a coffee shop.
I graduated from St. Mary’s College of Maryland in 2016 with a Bachelor’s Degree in English and Minors in Creative Writing and Psychology. In 2023, I graduated from St. Edward’s University with my Master of Arts Degree in Counseling. I am a licensed LPC-Associate in the State of Texas, supervised by Lauren Masciarelli, LMFT-S, LPC-S.
