Consultation with other Providers 

I joined IHT with the hope of serving the West Texas and New Mexico unicorns. Starting with curiosity, I want to help you move towards embodying your most authentic self. Since 2020, I have sat across from many humans and had the honor of helping them untangle their pasts to create a new empowered narrative. 

I work from an anti-racist, anticolonial, harm reduction framework. “There’s nothing wrong with me” is a belief I hope that those I work with come to hold about themselves. Whether we are working through diet-culture, body image struggles, or embracing authentic identities, you deserve to feel empowered in your true self.

 I have training in Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), Trauma Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy 

(TF-CBT),  Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Family Based Treatment (FBT), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy 

Enhanced (CBT-E), Emotion Focused  Family Therapy (EFFT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), and Somatic techniques to name a few. I offer virtual individual, couples, family and group counseling in the states of Texas and New Mexico. 

 In addition to counseling services, I love consulting with professionals wanting to learn and grow their skills in the intersectionalities of disordered eating/neurodivergence/queer/social justice issues. I enjoy presenting publicly about the topics of Health at Every Size, rejecting diet culture, body trust and kindness, and breaking up with any societal messages that keep us from embodying our 

most authentic self. 

When I am not working, you can find me in nature or enjoying various “art” forms. In nature, I am hiking, camping, snowboarding, or riding my motorcycle. When I am immersed in “art”, I am crocheting, reading the latest queer romantasy, or rewatching Schitt's Creek or Grey’s Anatomy.
