You’re smart and analytical. You’ve read the books, listened to the podcasts, and maybe even been to therapy before — yet you still feel stuck. You live in your head, analyzing everything, but no matter how much you try to “fix it” or “figure it out,” nothing shifts.
Whether you’re struggling with anxiety, perfectionism, trauma, or relationship challenges, insight alone isn’t always enough to create real change. You need an approach that goes beyond just talking.
Experiential Therapy: Beyond Talk Therapy
Experiential therapies help you connect with and shift what’s happening beneath the surface. As a licensed therapist in Austin, Texas, I work with individuals and couples struggling with:
Using neuroscience-backed, trauma-informed approaches, we’ll work with what’s happening beneath your awareness—the patterns you can’t think your way out of—so you can move toward the life you want. I offer in-person and virtual sessions.
Are you a high-achieving adult who feels stuck, anxious, or unfulfilled, even though life looks "fine" from the outside? Do you find yourself driven to succeed but struggling with perfectionism, burnout, or the weight of past experiences? I offer neuroscience-informed individual therapy for adults (ages 20+) who want to feel less anxious, more connected, and more at ease in their lives and relationships. Therapy is tailored to your unique needs and goals.
Are you feeling more like roommates than partners, stuck in cycles of conflict, or finding that one or two issues keep creating tension even when things are otherwise good? Using an experiential approach, we'll work with what's happening beneath the surface to help you break old patterns, communicate more effectively, and rebuild emotional safety and connection. Therapy is tailored to your unique relationship and goals.
I offer therapy services as well as individual consultation, consultation groups, and a supportive community for therapists. As the founder of The Connected Therapist, I help therapists move beyond burnout and isolation into authentic connection and developing a sustainable practice they love. Whether you're just beginning your career or refining your established private practice, I would love to support you in thriving personally and professionally.
In addition to my therapy practice, it is my passion and mission to make therapeutic concepts and neuroscience more accessible and mainstream.
My goal with the podcast is to help people like you feel less alone and more resourced as you navigate the inevitable ups and downs of life.
In the podcast, I share brain science, intentional practices, and real-life stories to help you better understand yourself and improve your connection with others. In the same way that you’d turn to a personal trainer for your physical health, I hope to teach you important emotional and relational skills to help guide you through life’s challenges.
Of course, this podcast is not therapy, but it is a great adjunct to therapy. It can be found on Apple Podcasts or Spotify.
I help therapists build emotionally and financially sustainable practices. Learn more at the link below.
