About My Clients

Do you ever wonder why you feel so angry or irritated all the time? It feels normal to feel bad. You aren't crazy about having to deal with feelings, but they keep spilling out. Don't worry. I get it. You can learn to understand and manage your emotions. You deserve to be able to manage your life & reactions. I help teens & adults to create a new normal that works for them. I take a direct, no-nonsense approach to counseling & we learn together what will help your ADHD, Autism, & Anxiety issues.

My Background and Approach

It may not feel like it, but asking for help is brave. You have the strength to find your way, but need a better approach. That's where I come in. We'll start wherever you are most comfortable starting and work from there. My job is to help guide you towards understanding yourself better and learning how to handle the normal feelings you have about your situation. Your job is to decide what works best for you. My training and experience has focused on proven counseling methods like DBT, TF-CBT, and more. However, it's the creativity of finding ways for you to connect that make counseling such an awesome experience. Think sitting in a chair for a 45-min session sounds like torture? No problem! We can take a walk, grab a soccer ball, or play a game while we talk. Have trouble naming what you are feeling? A lot of my clients start out that way. We'll start with the basics and before you know it, you'll be able to handle tough conversations without losing your temper or shutting down.

My Personal Beliefs and Interests

I take the process of earning your trust seriously. Once you know I care & can help, it will be easier for you to talk about the hard stuff. So, there's no pressure for you to trust me in the first session. Instead, we'll take it session by session, learning together what works for you. When I was a kid, I lived in a rural area where there wasn't much mental health support. So, I know first-hand how important it is to have access to someone who not only cares, but knows how to help. This is what inspired me to become a counselor in the first place. You deserve to feel in control of your life despite what life has thrown your way or how your mind works. I'm from Colorado, but have loved Texas since I attended UT at Austin for grad school (Hook Em!). I am an avid hiker & kick-boxer, love horses and animals in general, and have a super sweet little side-kick for virtual sessions named Odie (see my profile picture above). If you're ready to get started, let's get you scheduled.

I offer online counseling in the following states:
