Build Skills. Break Patterns. Get Support. Feel Better.

Therapy for Emotion Regulation

Austin and surrounding areas

You don’t have to keep repeating the same patterns.

Change is possible.

I have been coaching clients for over 20 years on ways to improve their relationships and their emotional health.

Taking the first step and reaching out to start therapy is HARD. You might think you should know how to fix things on your own, or that it will feel too uncomfortable talking to someone about personal and sensitive issues. I aim to be neutral and non-judgmental, so that my clients feel safe and at ease while working with me. I specialize in a skills-based therapy modality called DBT (Dialectical Behavior Therapy). It’s a practical, structured way to learn new ways of managing emotions and improving communication.
