Education
University of Texas at Austin, Master of Social Work, 2012
I graduated with a focus on gerontology (GRACE), clinical counseling and mental health interventions.
Work History
The first ten years of my career, I worked with homeless Veterans to get them housed and then to address their traumas once they were in stable housing and had a foundation of safety in order to focus on their mental health. We addressed war traumas, family of origin traumas, childhood traumas, trauma from being unhoused and living on the streets, etc. I have been working with older adults residing in nursing homes and their spouses, caregivers and family members. I started my virtual private practice in 2020 when I saw there was a huge need for mental health support during Covid and a lack of available therapists. I also provide pro-bono therapy to victims of crime referred from the Austin Police Department.
