Couples therapy supports partners who feel stuck in the same fights, disconnected, or unsure how to rebuild trust. Sessions focus on strengthening emotional safety, improving communication, and shifting painful cycles using evidence-informed approaches such as EFT and Gottman-informed work. Couples are supported through major life stressors and transitions, including parenthood, grief, infidelity recovery, and ongoing conflict that has started to feel unmanageable.
Specialized perinatal and postpartum therapy is available for the full spectrum of fertility, pregnancy, birth, and early parenting. If you’re experiencing postpartum anxiety or depression, intrusive thoughts, overwhelm, rage, numbness, or a sense that you “should” be happier than you feel, therapy offers a steady place to process what’s happening and get support that fits your real life. Care can include partner support, coordination with other providers when needed, and a focus on restoring stability, attachment, and self-trust.
Internal Family Systems (IFS) therapy helps you understand and work with different “parts” of yourself—like the part that overthinks, the part that shuts down, the part that people-pleases, or the part that feels stuck in fear. This approach is especially helpful for trauma, anxiety, shame, and inner conflict, creating space for more compassion and clarity instead of constant self-judgment.
Narcissistic abuse recovery therapy supports healing after experiences of manipulation, coercive control, gaslighting, and emotional abuse. The focus is on rebuilding reality-testing, reestablishing boundaries, reducing hypervigilance, and reconnecting with your sense of identity and agency especially if you’ve learned to doubt your instincts or feel unsafe trusting yourself.
Religious trauma therapy offers care for people recovering from fear-based, shame-based, or controlling religious environments. Therapy helps you untangle anxiety, guilt, identity confusion, and relational wounds, and supports you in creating a values-based life that feels safe, authentic, and truly yours.
In-person and telehealth sessions are available for clients in Texas.
