As a multicultural team led by husband and wife owner-clinicians, Sarah and Damien, we bring a diverse range of experiences, skill sets, and specialties to the table. Our team of talented, highly-qualified counselors meets you where you are to create a customized plan of action to get you to the other side, where you want to be.

The great part is, you don’t have to stay stuck in that place forever.

Are you struggling with anxiety, depression or difficulty overcoming patterns that keep you from living your best life? I specialize in helping clients address many issues related to trauma exposure and its effect on their nervous system. I have a wonderful track record of helping clients restore emotional balance to their personal and professional lives. We may work on healing self-sabotaging beliefs, building healthy boundaries, managing anxiety, feeling into layers of grief, forming healthy coping strategies for everyday stressors, and learning effective and authentic communication skills.

You've always been the strong one; but, right now you don’t feel so strong. You’d like to let your guard down for a second and catch your breath. But you don’t think you can. It would be better to just keep going, pushing, harder, longer. Right? That's what you're used to. It has worked in the past. But, THAT thing that you keep thinking about, have nightmares about and can't stop remembering is starting to wear on you. Your usual methods of coping isn't cutting it, and you're thinking about talking to a psychologist.

I am passionate about serving those seeking help, and specialize in helping individuals with relationships, trauma, grief, and anxiety. My work focuses on targeting ineffective behaviors, beliefs, and habits that may be hurtful and limit one’s progress.

As humans, we not only want to feel understood but we want to understand ourselves. Why do we do the things we do? The goal is to help people gain insight in the nature of their situation as well as help them develop skills for taking action and making needed changes to feel more in control of their life.

Are you feeling the impulse to explore who you are behind the masks? Do you yearn for freedom from unhealthy relationship dynamics and behavior patterns holding you back from the life you know you’re meant to have? Do you seek real, lasting change, progress, and happiness? Do you feel like you’ve tried it all, but nothing sticks? Do you believe you need help identifying your limiting beliefs, overcoming your hardships, and getting the life you’ve always wanted? I aim to guide those who are ready to slow down and do the inner healing required to leave their unhealthy cycles and reconnect with the highest versions of themselves.

I’m a passionate advocate for holistic wellness. I believe mental health wellness is crucial to overall health for all people and should not be stigmatized. I support adults, couples, and families dealing with trauma, depression, anxiety, sleep disorders, intellectual and developmental disabilities, grief & loss, and other behavioral concerns.

I am a pre-licensed professional supervised by Lindsey Heselbarth LPC-S. I use an affirming lens to support children, adolescents, and adults. I specialize in supporting Autism, ADHD, giftedness, complex and generational trauma, intellectualization, and nervous system burnout. I offer virtual appointments to those in Texas and have in-person availability in Round Rock.

My approach to working with clients is compassionate and person-centered. I believe each person is the expert on themselves and therefore my role is to be a supportive guide throughout the healing process. My training and experience have afforded me the opportunity to work with a variety of issues, including but not limited to, complex trauma, sexual abuse or sexual assault grief & loss, anxiety, depression, and those who may be experiencing heightened stress related to family, work, or social situations. You may be bringing years of hurt and challenging situations into counseling but I will be here to support you with that pain.
