Let's Connect (512) 270-3362
Relationships are vital to our existence, but sometimes we struggle to connect with ourselves and others in a way that supports our values and sustains the relationships that bring love, success, and connection into our lives. Whether you are struggling to connect with a romantic partner, or you've become so debilitated by anxious, self-defeating thoughts that social interaction feels impossible, I believe you have the power within you to change the way you connect to yourself and others. If sexual, emotional, or other barriers are stopping you from living the life you want, let me help you harness your inner strength.
As a Licensed Clinical Psychologist (and as a Registered Nurse), I believe in assisting my clients in finding their own voice and strength in determining how they want to lead more fulfilling lives. Sex and relationship therapy is a passion of mine, as I feel that consent and open communication are vital to healthy relationships and sense of self.
The fact that you are reading my profile tells me you are ready to make a commitment to yourself, that you want more from your life and relationships. I would love to help you start moving forward now! An initial 20-minute phone consultation is free - let's talk about how we can work together to get you the life and relationships you want!
