Hi there, I’m so glad you are here! You may be wondering about who I am and whether I might be a good fit for you. To help you better answer that question, here is a little bit about me:

I am a licensed clinical psychologist (Psy.D.) specializing in the treatment of couples and individuals navigating relational distress, communication issues, and life transitions. I’ve been described by colleagues and close friends as: “exceptionally warm,” “intuitive” and “radically real.” I have some pretty cool friends.

I grew up in New Mexico and have lived all over the country, exploring and enjoying a variety of cultures and climates. What drew me to psychology, and specifically a more depth-oriented approach, was the enjoyment I experienced in establishing authentic, healing connections with others.

I have always had a strong sense of empathy and compassion for all beings: human and animal alike. Since becoming a mother, my intuition, empathy, compassion, and humor have grown even stronger. I have ridden horses my entire life, and grew up with what many would consider a menagerie of pets (emus, horses, llamas, ducks, chickens, goats) in my backyard. I treasure connecting with others, taking a curious approach to understanding life paths, and providing a space for hope, clarity, and acceptance.

The human experience isn’t an easy one. Sometimes what is needed most, is a compassionate space to unpack our emotional baggage and grieve the aspects of life that have not unfolded as expected. I see you, and would love to create that space for you.

I am trained in a variety of evidenced-based approaches, but gravitate most towards the tenets of: Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Emotionally Focused Therapy for Couples, and Psychodynamic Therapy. The work of Carl Jung inspires and captivates me, and has shaped my perspective on the mysterious, enigmatic, and esoteric. There is nothing I love more than delighting in the synchronicities of life.

Outside of the world of psychology, I am drawn to various interests including: farm animal sanctuaries, nature, Longhorns football, world mysteries and all things spiritual. In my spare time, I enjoy riding my horse, Martini, visiting my home state of New Mexico, and spending time with my husband and our two young sons.
