I’ve always been passionate about understanding people and making a difference in their lives. And I’m fascinated by the questions of how we become the people we are, what gets in the way of our growth, and how to help people live more fully and have deeper, more satisfying relationships.

Before becoming a psychologist and psychoanalyst, I was a Spanish-speaking community health counselor and editor. My degrees are the signposts for this journey: a B.A. in Spanish, an M.A. in Latin American Studies, and a Ph.D. in counseling psychology. Since then I’ve completed advanced, intensive training in psychoanalysis. Currently I work with older adolescents and adults of all ages.

I see patients both online and in person in Austin. I also offer psychoanalysis and therapy to residents of New York. And I see patients in 40 other states, including New Jersey, Minnesota, and Washington, through PSYPACT.
