As a licensed therapist in Austin, TX, I take a direct, practical and results-driven approach to helping individuals and couples navigate life’s challenges.
My clients often come to me feeling stuck—whether in their relationships, emotional struggles, or personal growth—and my role is to help them move forward. Together, we explore the roots of your current situation, process and heal difficult emotions, and develop a clear, actionable path toward lasting change.
Having lived in a stepfamily for many years, I bring both professional expertise and personal experience to my work. I understand firsthand the complexities of stepfamily dynamics, from the pain of divorce to the excitement of a second chance at love—and the unique challenges that come with blending families. Couples in stepfamilies face all the difficulties of a first marriage, plus additional hurdles that require thoughtful communication and understanding.
The good news is that creating a happy, healthy stepfamily is possible. Through evidence-based psychotherapy, I help couples build stronger relationships, navigate parenting challenges, and create a more peaceful family dynamic.
Whether you’re struggling with relationship difficulties, stepfamily adjustments, or personal emotional hurdles, I am here to help. Let’s work together to create the life and relationships you truly want.
