What's My Approach to Therapy?
If you’re here, you’re probably tired - of overthinking, over-giving, over-apologizing. Maybe you’ve spent years trying to be the version of yourself that others expected - responsible, nice, productive, “fine.” But under the surface, there’s tension. Restlessness. Shame. A quiet sense that you’re not quite living your life.
If that resonates, you’re in the right place.
In therapy, I offer more than coping tools (though you’ll get those, too). I offer a space to reconnect - with your voice, your truth, your full humanity. Together, we’ll unpack what’s been weighing on you: the patterns you’re tired of repeating, the pressures you’re done trying to live up to, and the self-doubt that keeps stealing your energy.
I take a collaborative, down-to-earth approach. I listen closely, offer honest reflections, and help you explore your story with curiosity rather than judgment. We’ll work both with the present (how you’re feeling, what’s working or not) and the past (what shaped your beliefs about who you have to be).
I weave together practical strategies with deep inner work, helping you not only survive but live more boldly and freely. Whether we’re exploring emotions, challenging stuck thoughts, working with parts of you in conflict, or practicing new ways of responding to life’s messiness - it’s all grounded in the belief that you already hold the answers. My role is to help you trust yourself enough to hear them.
I believe that who you are at your core isn’t broken - it’s buried. This work isn’t about “fixing” you - it’s about liberating you from the pressure to be who you’re not. It’s about reclaiming your voice, your wants, your weirdness, your softness... your wholeness. If that sounds like the kind of work you’re craving, I’d be honored to walk with you.
My Practice & Services
I named my practice Rebellious Wellness Therapy because I believe therapy should be more than symptom management. It should be a radical act of self-remembering.
We live in a world that constantly tells us we’re not enough, especially if we’re sensitive, creative, neurodivergent, nonconforming, or just plain tired of pretending. My work is about helping people unhook from that noise and come home to themselves.
I specialize in working with women and AFAB folks navigating anxiety, ADHD, perfectionism, self-doubt, or trauma. Many of my clients have internalized the belief that their worth depends on how well they perform, achieve, or care for others. Therapy with me is about challenging that narrative and creating space for you to exist - freely, fully, and unapologetically.
I offer individual therapy for adults via telehealth across Texas and Minnesota. You can learn more on my rebellious wellness therapy website. I'd love to connect when you’re ready.
My View on the Nature of 'Disorders'
I don't see most psychological "disorders" as personal defects - I see them as adaptations. Depression, anxiety, trauma responses, even high-functioning autism (or what some now call Level 1 autism) - these are ways of coping, surviving, and making sense of a world that often demands too much and offers too little.
Sometimes these patterns are wired in from birth, like with neurodivergence. Sometimes they're shaped by what we've been through - loss, stress, neglect, pressure to perform, or just being in environments that never quite fit. Either way, they're not random. And they're not signs you're broken.
With autism in particular, I don't view it as a disorder that needs fixing. I see it as a valid neurotype - one that?s often misunderstood or masked to survive in a world not built for it. The distress many autistic people feel is more about misattunement, overload, and burnout than about autism itself.
My job as a therapist isn't to diagnose and correct - it's to understand and collaborate. We're not just managing symptoms - we're getting curious about what those symptoms are trying to say. To help you name what's going on beneath the surface, make space for who you really are, and find ways of living that feel less like performing and more like you.
