Therapy for women & the kids they love–

in Buda and virtually across Texas.

Imagine making the changes that transform your life into one that feels so much more…you.

Let’s be real, life is hard. And it feels so much more difficult when there’s something that keeps getting in your way.

Big emotions like anger, rejection, or worry that take hours or days to simmer down.

Unrelenting guilt when you try to stand up for yourself or speak your truth.

Scattered thoughts and priorities that take up brain space you don’t have the luxury of giving up.

Worries about your child who is having rough school days and even rougher moments at home.

And that’s just getting through life. But you want to do more than survive.

You have big and little dreams and goals that you want to put energy towards.

You have family and friends that you want to (honestly) enjoy being around.

You want to be able to unwind and take good, deep, consistent care of yourself.

And you want the same for everyone in your family.

But you aren’t sure how to change things so that life feels consistently doable and really good.

Because you’ve tried what you know and are tired of still being stuck. You’re ready to try something different.

You Don’t Have to Keep Carrying It All Alone

I work with women, teens, children, and parents who:

• feel overwhelmed by ADHD, anxiety, or a sensitive nervous system that makes everyday life feel like “too much”

• are navigating neurodivergence (ADHD or autism) in themselves or their child and feel unsure how to support it

• are parenting a child who doesn’t respond to traditional parenting strategies and are exhausted from trying everything

• feel emotionally intense, easily overloaded, completely invisible, or like their reactions are “too big” for the world around them

• are constantly holding it together for everyone else while running on empty themselves

You want a space where your brain, your nervous system, and your experiences make sense—and where you don’t have to translate yourself to be understood.

You want space to breathe. To feel supported. And to move forward.

    Women with Anxiety

    You second-guess all the time, like one wrong move could ruin everything. And even though you are trying your hardest, you’re still feel completely stuck a lot of the time.

    Neurodivergent Women

    You’ve spent your whole life feeling different than others. As a adult, you just feel like life is a lot harder for you than it is for others.

    Teens

    Things are constantly changing for your teenager. They are trying to make big decisions about friendships, dating, and college or career. Many teens love the space and extra support therapy provides so they can get clear on what they truly feel, think, and want from themselves and others.

    Children

    You just want your kid to be okay–and you’re scared that they’re not. You’ve tried what you know to do but you aren’t getting the results you want.

Hi, I’m Janet

I provide neurodiversity-affirming, nervous-system-informed therapy for women, children, teens, and the parents who love them.

What I want you to know

Therapy changed my life and it continues to do so today. I love being able to help others experience a transformation that makes life work better. No matter what you are coming in to change, I will help you see and feel your worth, even if you’ve forgotten it. (Or maybe never realized just how important you truly are.)

I’m ready when you are

There’s nothing too messy or too much to bring into therapy. We’ll figure it out together. Learn more about about who I serve and what it’s like working with me.

How to get started

Disclaimer: If you’re feeling curious, unsure, or even a little nervous, that’s okay and very, very normal!

You can schedule a 20-minute consultation with me so we can touch base and you can get a feel for who I am. And if I’m not the therapist for you or your child, I’ll leave you with the names of other therapists who may be a better fit for you.
