Specialized Therapy for Dementia & Neurocognitive Caregivers

Living with or caring for someone with MCI, dementia, or another neurodegenerative disorder can feel overwhelming. Adjusting to a new diagnosis, noticing changes in memory and independence, or navigating the progression of dementia often brings grief, fear, uncertainty, and exhaustion.

I spent years supporting older adults and families inside memory care communities and skilled nursing facilities. I now offer specialized therapy for individuals with early-stage dementia or MCI, as well as caregivers, couples, and families across Texas and New Mexico. Whether you are processing a diagnosis, protecting identity and independence, managing caregiver stress, or working through family dynamics, therapy can provide a steady space for honesty and support.

You do not have to carry this alone.

Support for Healthcare Professionals & Helping Professionals

Healthcare professionals give everything to their patients, but very few people hold space for providers when they are running on empty. I have worked alongside staff in memory care and skilled nursing settings and understand the compassion fatigue and quiet grief that come with this work.

I offer sessions to help navigate the unique strain this role places on your life and relationships. Whether you are part of a dual healthcare household or the only professional in your family, these sessions are a judgment-free place to process the weight you carry. We will work together to set boundaries without guilt and rebuild resilience so you can keep showing up. Available virtually throughout Texas and New Mexico, with limited in-person options in Buda.

Therapy for Anxiety, Depression & Life Transitions

High-achieving perfectionists, sandwich-generation adults, and anyone stuck in worry or low mood — I help you quiet the constant “not enough” voice and move from surviving to actually living. Using Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), mindfulness, and strengths-based work, we untangle overwhelm, build psychological flexibility, and create a life that feels like yours again.

How We Work Together

In our work together, we focus on giving you steady ground again. Sessions are practical, compassionate, and built around what you need most right now. By integrating ACT (Acceptance and Commitment Therapy), CBT (Cognitive Behavioral Therapy), and Strengths-Based therapy, we focus on:

• Accepting the Uncontrollable (ACT): We work on letting go of the idea that everything is yours to fix. You can love others deeply and still accept the limits of what anyone can control. You will learn skills to ride the waves of grief, anger, and resentment without drowning in them.

• Shifting Your Narrative (CBT): We examine the thought patterns that keep you stuck in "shoulds" and guilt. We get clear on what matters most to you so that choices about care, work, or the future feel aligned with your own heart.

• Empowering Your Natural Resilience (Strengths-Based) We focus on identifying the unique skills and inner resources you already possess to navigate life’s shifts. Whether in individual or multi-person sessions, we work together to amplify your existing capabilities, helping you set firm boundaries and leverage your personal strengths to reclaim your identity and sense of agency.

This is not about becoming a "better" caregiver or a "better" anything. It is about making sure you still have a life, a sense of self, and some peace left at the end of the day.
