I was born and raised in Colorado, where the vastness of the mountains and the stillness of the land shaped my understanding of the world. My journey led me to Naropa University, where I studied Contemplative Psychotherapy—an approach that merges the depth of mindfulness with the intricacies of our shared human experience. After relocating to Houston for my husband’s career, I continue to find inspiration in the diverse beauty of the natural world, from the vibrant plants to the small creatures that call this beautiful place home.

I see life as an ever-unfolding dance between stillness and motion, light and dark, simplicity and complexity. Each moment holds the potential to reveal deeper truths about who we are and how we relate to the world around us. As a therapist, I invite others into this space of discovery, where there are no right answers—only the opportunity to explore with curiosity, compassion, and presence. I believe that healing is not about erasing pain but about learning to be with it, to see it clearly, and to integrate it into the whole of who we are.

My role as a therapist is to be with you through all the twists and turns of your journey—holding space for the contradictions and complexities that make you whole. In this process, I offer a steady presence, allowing you to explore your experiences with openness, knowing that all parts of you are worthy of attention and care. Together, we will create room for healing to emerge, not by fixing what’s broken but by acknowledging and embracing what already exists within you.
