I believe in fostering a non-judgmental counseling relationship with individuals and practice from a strengths-based perspective, focusing on one’s assets and potential. I use dialectical behavioral therapy, cognitive-behavioral therapy, motivational enhancement, and person-centered techniques to assist individuals, couples, and families in reaching their goals. My purpose is to help improve coping skills, increase personal happiness, develop closer relationships, balance life, and discover a higher quality of life. I have a passion for counseling and strives to improve the lives of my clients in ways that are both personally and relationally beneficial.

This private practice is focused on helping clients create a balanced and joyful life. Everyone can discover the way that works best for him or her. It appears that we tend to focus way too much time and energy on "right vs. wrong." This seems to only cause more confusion, indecisiveness, and other insecurities. Seeking outside guidance in times of struggle can be powerful and transformative. One of the goals of this practice is to help clients discover a deeper sense of self and acceptance. Another intention of this practice practice is to help clients build and maintain the necessary tools they already have existing within themselves, and lead clients to new discoveries of living life in a more balanced and enjoyable way.

Lake Austin Psychotherapy offers general psychotherapy via the narrative perspective of externalization from the problem. Additional subconscious processing with EMDR can facilitate cognitive narrative connections that allow for new, adaptive perspectives to emerge. While past experiences cannot be changed, the story we tell ourselves can always evolve.
