Enter a Safe Space Today

It’s hard to find a safe therapist to be yourself with, especially in Texas. I get it. As a queer therapist, I offer online counseling services to all LGBTQIA+ Texans.

Let's work together to build coping skills, navigate challenges, and reach your goals!

Areas of Focus

  • Anxiety can get overwhelming, especially when you have to worry about safety, stability, or too many things at once.

    Learn how to plan for worst-case scenarios, build relaxation and coping skills, and create realistic thought patterns to reduce overall anxiety.

  • Whether you’re struggling with negative thoughts, low mood, fatigue, or other depressive symptoms, you don’t have to carry the burden alone.

    Together, we can lessen the weight of depression and develop hope.

  • Traumatic events, in whatever form, can do a lot of damage to our lives. You might have symptoms that don’t make sense to you, or seem impossible to change.

    Trauma recovery is hard, and you have courage for even considering it. With my training in Trauma Model Therapy and expertise in dissociation, we can navigate the path to trauma recovery together.

  • Maybe you feel confused about your identity, or feel that what you are isn’t acceptable. You might also struggle with how other people treat you based on your identity.

    Identity struggles are tough. I’ll work with you to develop self-acceptance and compassion, so you can enjoy life authentically.

  • If you’re asexual or aromantic, you’re no stranger to ignorance and rejection. You might struggle finding a therapist who won’t view your natural identity as a problem or try to change you.

    As an ace myself, I guarantee a space free of judgement or pathologizing. It’s my passion to provide quality therapy to all aces and aros.

  • The trans and nonbinary experience is unique and, sadly, stressful. Especially in Texas. Gender-Affirming Care saves lives, and I’m proud to be part of it.

    You deserve a therapist who is trained and experienced in supporting you in every step of your journey, no matter what it looks like.

“The curious paradox is that when I accept myself as I am, then I can change.”
