Therapy for High-Achieving Women in Texas
Support for anxiety, relationship struggles, attachment trauma, and the quarter/mid-life crisis.
Therapy for ambitious women in Texas who are navigating the pressures to keep it all together. Whether you’re advancing in your career, managing relationships, or facing a life transition, therapy is your space to slow down and reconnect with yourself.
You may look confident and capable from the outside, but internally feel overwhelmed, disconnected, or unsure of who you’re supposed to be. Maybe you’ve been attaching your worth to your productivity, but constantly feel burnt out, anxious, and unfulfilled.
I work with high-achieving women throughout Texas who want more clarity, confidence, and a way of living that feels authentic and grounded.
Whether you’re in Austin, where innovation can make it hard to feel like you’re doing “enough,” Houston, where demanding careers can leave little room for self-care, or Dallas, where expectations can create a constant need to maintain an image, therapy is your space to finally exhale and turn inward.
In therapy, we’ll explore what’s no longer working and take steps toward a life that honors your authenticity and core values.
Therapy for women in Texas navigating anxiety, relationship patterns, identity, and the quarter/mid-life crisis.
Many high-achieving women find themselves white knuckling their way through life while feeling overwhelmed and unfulfilled. Change is possible, and with the right support, you can begin to understand yourself more deeply, break old patterns, and move through your life with intention instead of constant anxiety.
Whether you’re navigating a demanding career, relationship challenges, or a life transition, therapy is your space to slow down and get clear on what you actually need.
My approach blends relational therapy, existential exploration, and evidence-based tools. My style is collaborative, warm, and gently challenging.
Together, we’ll slow things down, explore what feels out of alignment, understand patterns that no longer serve you, and redefine success in a way that feels aligned and genuinely your own.

What Our Work Together Might Look Like —
Whether we look at your relationships, emotional patterns, values, or sense of self, we’ll do so from a holistic view. Together, we may explore:
-
We’ll clarify what matters most to you and use that as a compass for decisions and boundaries.
Many high-achieving women are used to meeting expectations, staying productive, and keeping everything running smoothly—often at the expense of their own needs.
In therapy, we slow down and identify the values that actually feel meaningful to you, not just the ones you’ve been taught to prioritize.
-
We’ll identify patterns that spike anxiety and practice more grounded, realistic ways of responding. Anxiety often follows familiar loops—like overthinking decisions, feeling responsible for everyone else’s needs, or putting intense pressure on yourself to get everything right.
In therapy, we’ll slow those moments down and look at what’s driving them so you can start responding differently. Over time, you’ll learn practical ways to calm your nervous system, challenge unhelpful thought patterns, and approach situations with more clarity, balance, and self-trust.
-
You’ll learn tools you can actually use in real life to regulate stress and build resilience. Instead of just talking about what’s hard, we’ll focus on practical strategies that help you steady yourself in the moment—whether that’s calming your nervous system, interrupting spirals of overthinking, or creating small habits that make daily stress feel more manageable.
Over time, these tools help you respond to challenges with more flexibility and confidence, rather than feeling overwhelmed or stuck in the same patterns.
-
We’ll explore how old dynamics show up in current relationships, and we’ll work on how to shift them. Many of the patterns that create tension or anxiety in relationships—like people-pleasing, difficulty setting boundaries, or fearing conflict—often have roots in earlier experiences.
In therapy, we’ll gently unpack these patterns and notice how they continue to play out in your life today. From there, we’ll practice new ways of communicating, setting boundaries, and showing up in relationships so they feel healthier, more balanced, and more aligned with who you are now.

We’ll strengthen confidence and create goals that match who you are (not who you “should” be).
Many people have spent years following expectations from family, work, or culture, which can make it hard to know what they genuinely want.
In therapy, we’ll sort through those pressures and focus on what feels meaningful and authentic to you. From there, we’ll set goals that feel realistic and aligned with your values, helping you move forward with more clarity, self-trust, and direction.
-
Therapy is your space to talk about anything and everything. There’s no pressure to share more than you’re ready for, but it’s often helpful for me to understand your past experiences so I can best support you in the present.
In our first few sessions, we’ll focus on your background, current challenges, and goals for therapy. As we continue, you’re welcome to bring in whatever is on your mind, whether that’s anxiety, relationship struggles, work stress, life transitions, body image, sexuality, or anything else that feels relevant. Nothing is off the table in therapy.
Therapy is a process that takes time, consistency, and patience. You can expect a collaborative experience with a balance of compassion, curiosity, and honest feedback designed to help you grow, heal, and create lasting change in your life.

Online therapy is just like in-person therapy, but you meet from the comfort of your own space using a secure, HIPAA-compliant video platform.
Before our appointment, you’ll receive a private link to join. At your scheduled time, just click the link and you’ll be connected.
Try to find a quiet, comfortable space where you can speak freely and focus on yourself. I also recommend setting your device to “Do Not Disturb” to help minimize any interruptions.
You can join from a laptop, iPad, or smartphone — whatever is most convenient for you.

Like most specialty providers, I am out of network. I’m happy to provide a superbill (receipt) you can submit to your insurance provider for potential out-of-network reimbursement. Many clients are able to receive partial reimbursement this way. You may also use HSA/FSA funds to pay for therapy sessions.
For more information about my fee, please see my FAQ page here.

I find that I work best with clients who are motivated for therapy and feel ready to create meaningful change in their lives. My approach tends to resonate most with people who are interested in exploring the root cause of patterns rather than seeking a quick fix or surface-level solutions.
You’ll likely get the most out of our work together if you’re open to exploration, feedback, and self-reflection, and if you’re committed to showing up consistently for yourself and the process.
My approach is also very relational, meaning I see our relationship as the foundation for healing and growth. This is why therapeutic fit is so important.
If you feel ready to invest in your personal growth and commit to the process, there’s a good chance we’ll be a great fit. I’ll bring my full presence and care to our sessions, and I ask that you come equally invested in your own growth journey.

I am licensed in both California and Texas, which means I’m able to work with clients throughout each state.

If you’re ready to begin therapy, I recommend booking an appointment directly through my online calendar here. Once your appointment is confirmed, you’ll receive your new client intake forms. Please review and sign them at least 48 hours before your scheduled session to avoid an auto-cancellation.
