About Me

Washington DC born and raised, I moved to Austin for graduate school and like so many, fell in love with the city and made it my home.  I am passionate about my work and dedicated to providing the best possible service to my clients.  My practice combines psychology theory and technique with spiritual exploration and practice, and I specialize in Trauma Healing and Spiritual Empowerment.

My Approach:

The foundation of my psychology method is in DEEP Therapy, which stands for Dynamic Enriched Experiential Psychotherapy. This modality is rooted in attachment theory, neurobiology research, and relational in-the-moment processing.  I incorporate Internal Family System (IFS) elements and   mindfulness techniques into the process as well.  My spiritual approach is rooted in advanced spiritual trainings from The Modern Mystery School.  Through the school, I am a Certified Life Practitioner, Ritual Master, and Healer and offer spiritual and energy services based on the traditions and technologies of the Lineage of King Solomon.  Combing Mind and Spirit modalities, I offer clients a holistic space to engage internally and externally in their lives.
