Breaking Cycles, Finding Balance: Therapy for Intimacy, Eating and Financial Healing

I’m a licensed therapist in both Texas (LPC) and Washington (LMHC) and a National Certified Counselor (NCC) and Certified Sex Addiction Therapist (CSAT). I completed my Master of Science in Counseling from Southern Methodist University and my Bachelor of Science in Economics from Texas A&M University.
Using elements of acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT) and cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), we will focus on decreasing the shame attached to compulsive behaviors and increasing self-compassion to develop a healthy intimate relationship with yourself and others.
By identifying and embracing your values, you will understand your triggers and motivations and ultimately learn effective coping mechanisms that align with the life you envision.
I am committed to creating an inclusive and accepting space for all clients. I strive to make people of all sizes, races, ethnicities, genders and orientations feel welcome, heard and valued during our time together.

Our Specialities

Intimacy Disorders

When the desire and pursuit of romantic or sexual fulfillment becomes all-consuming, it is a sign that perhaps we are trying to fill another emotional need. This includes compulsive sexual behaviors, fantasizing or fixation on new relationships and staying in emotionally unhealthy relationships.
Disordered Eating

Understand how hyperfocus on food and preoccupation with body size, shape and weight may be used to manage feelings of overwhelm, anxiety, helplessness and powerlessness. We are also able to offer support for clients considering bariatric surgery.
Work & Financial Stress

Our beliefs about money and work are formed early in our lives and impact our behaviors, relationships and choices more than you think. Both the over-focus and the avoidance of money inhibits our ability to connect with ourselves and cause conflict in our relationships.
Racial Identity & Healing

Living in a world that frequently overlooks or invalidates the effects of discrimination and bias can lead to feelings of anger, anxiety and isolation. Racial healing work is crucial for emotional resilience and reclaiming one's sense of self.
