I am passionate about helping people deepen their mind/body connection and using creativity for healing. Since graduating from Pratt Institute with a Master of Science in Dance/Movement Therapy in 2011, I have had the opportunity to work with all kinds of people in a variety of settings. As a board certified dance/movement therapist I offer individual therapy, group therapy, and supervise other clinicians.
My background and training allows me to integrate and pull from a variety of approaches in our work together including, but not limited to, traditional talk therapy, breath work, mindfulness practices, creative expression, and healing movement. In our sessions I will create a supportive, safe space for your self-exploration, creative expression, and persona
I am currently offering virtual sessions and in person sessions in Austin, TX. I am currently accepting new clients.

I do not accept insurance at this time. This allows our sessions to be driven by client needs, and private, rather than insurance-driven care that lives on a permanent medical record. I am able to offer a superbill and encourage people to check with their insurance about reimbursement.

I support people who have lots trust in themselves, regain that trust. Self-trust can be lost through trauma, abuse, systemic oppression and marginalization. In the therapeutic relationship, we work together to rebuild self-trust in the body to make more choices available to you and to expand and deepen your relationship with yourself and others.
