Counseling Services:
Finding the right therapist is about more than finding someone who treats a particular diagnosis. Therapy works best when you feel understood, when the approach makes sense to you, and when there is room to understand not only what you are struggling with, but also what may be underneath it.
I provide online counseling for adults, adolescents, and couples throughout Texas, with a particular focus on trauma and EMDR, attachment and relationship patterns, anxiety and emotional regulation, grief, and helping people understand patterns that may have developed as ways of coping or protecting themselves.
You don't need to know exactly what kind of therapy you need before reaching out. These are some of the concerns I commonly work with.

Areas of Focus:
Trauma & EMDR Therapy
Trauma & EMDR Therapy
Trauma doesn't always look like having vivid memories of one terrible event. It can also show up as anxiety, difficulty trusting, feeling constantly on guard, shutting down during conflict, being unusually hard on yourself, or knowing intellectually that something is over while your body continues to react as though it isn't.
I use EMDR and other trauma-informed approaches to help clients understand these responses and work with experiences that may still be affecting the present.
Attachment & Relationships
Attachment & Relationships
The relationships and experiences we have throughout our lives can influence what we learn about closeness, trust, conflict, vulnerability, and whether it feels safe to depend on another person. These patterns often become especially noticeable in our closest relationships.
Therapy can help you understand what may be underneath patterns such as becoming anxious when someone pulls away, withdrawing when emotions become intense, or repeatedly finding yourself in relationship dynamics you understand but don't quite know how to change.
Couples Therapy
Couples Therapy
Couples often come to therapy after becoming caught in patterns that neither person quite knows how to interrupt. I work with couples experiencing recurring conflict, communication difficulties, emotional disconnection, attachment differences, major transitions, and the aftermath of infidelity or betrayal.
My couples work draws from attachment-based approaches and Gottman Method Couples Therapy, with attention to both the relationship itself and the experiences each partner brings into it.
Infidelity & Betrayal Trauma
Infidelity & Betrayal Trauma
Discovering an affair or another significant betrayal can profoundly disrupt a person's sense of safety. There may be grief, anger, intrusive thoughts, anxiety, an intense need for information or reassurance, and uncertainty about whether the relationship can or should continue.
I work with individuals and couples navigating the aftermath of betrayal, whether the goal is rebuilding the relationship, understanding what happened, or figuring out what healing and moving forward will look like.
Anxiety, Rumination & Emotional Regulation
Anxiety, Rumination & Emotional Regulation
Anxiety isn't always obvious panic. It can look like replaying conversations, anticipating everything that might go wrong, perfectionism, intrusive thoughts, difficulty making decisions, or feeling as though your mind and nervous system rarely fully settle.
Therapy can help you better understand these patterns, recognize what keeps them going, and develop different ways of responding when difficult thoughts, emotions, or physical sensations show up.
Teens & Young Adults
Teens & Young Adults
Adolescence and young adulthood bring enormous changes in identity, relationships, independence, school, family expectations, and plans for the future. Sometimes young people simply need a place where they can talk openly and begin making sense of what they are experiencing.
I work with teens and young adults experiencing anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties, school stress, ADHD, grief, trauma, family changes, identity concerns, and major life transitions.
Grief & Loss
Grief & Loss
Grief can follow the death of someone we love, but it can also accompany divorce, estrangement, the loss of a relationship, major life changes, or a future that no longer looks the way we expected.
Therapy can provide space to process the loss while making room for the complicated emotions that often come with it and finding a way to continue living while still carrying what mattered.
Where to Begin
Where to Begin
You may see yourself in several of the areas above, or you may be coming to therapy with something that doesn't fit neatly into any of them. That's very common. The things that bring us to therapy are often connected in ways that aren't obvious at first. Anxiety may be tied to relationship experiences, grief may bring older losses to the surface, or patterns that once helped you cope may no longer be working as well as they once did.
You don't need to have all of that figured out before you reach out. We can start with what is happening in your life now and make sense of the rest as we go.
