Primary Fit Anchor

This practice is a strong fit for adults in Texas living with persistent pelvic pain when nervous system dysregulation, trauma history, chronic stress, or relational patterns may be amplifying physical symptoms alongside medical factors.

I work with people whose pain is real, complex, and often misunderstood—and who want support that takes both the body and nervous system seriously, without implying the pain is “all in your head.”

This therapeutic support is designed to complement medical care for pelvic pain, not replace medical diagnosis, physical therapy, or medication management. If your primary need is medical diagnosis or physical therapy, starting with those resources may be most helpful

You Might Be Searching For This Page If:

You might be searching for therapy because your pelvic pain feels unpredictable and confusing, you’ve tried medical fixes without relief, or you feel emotionally worn down by repeated tests and dismissive providers.

Common Patterns That Often Accompany Pelvic Pain

Many clients I work with notice that their pelvic pain exists alongside long-standing patterns (links to speciality pages for those interested):

• Perfectionism or a strong inner critic

• People-pleasing or difficulty prioritizing their own needs

• Chronic over-thinking, over-functioning, or fear of letting others down

• Habitual emotional suppression or pushing through discomfort

• History of traumatic events or relationships, with stress showing up in the body

These patterns are not treated as personality flaws. Instead, we explore how they may have developed as protective strategies—and how they can keep the nervous system in a state of tension that amplifies pain over time.

Strong Fit Contexts

I often work with adults who:

• Have lived with pelvic pain for a long time and feel worn down by repeated appointments, tests, “normal” results, and cycles of hope and disappointment

• Have tried many interventions (pelvic floor PT, procedures, medications, diets, stretching, tracking, supplements) and still feel stuck or confused

• Appear high-functioning on the outside, but internally feel anxious, tense, disconnected, or constantly bracing

• Carry chronic stress or unprocessed trauma, including medical trauma, sexual pain or pressure, relational wounds, systemic stress, or growing up in environments where emotions were not safe

• Experience unpredictable or overwhelming symptoms such as pain with sex, tampon use, pelvic exams, sitting, movement, GI symptoms, or flare-ups that seem to come out of nowhere

• Feel dismissed or minimized by providers, partners, or themselves and are tired of questioning their own reality

• Are seeking therapy because pain is affecting intimacy, relationships, mood, work, self-confidence, or their ability to feel at home in their body

If this resonates, you are not broken—and you are not imagining it. Your body has been doing its best to protect you, even if that strategy has become painful.

Therapeutic Approach & Style

My work is trauma-informed, body-aware, and consent-based. Sessions move at a pace that respects your nervous system, especially if past medical or therapeutic experiences felt invasive, rushed, or invalidating.

Depending on your goals, history, and consent, therapy may include:

• Nervous system regulation and resourcing for flare-ups and chronic bracing

• Parts-based and attachment-informed work for internal conflict, self-pressure, or people-pleasing

• Trauma processing (including EMDR when appropriate and agreed upon), especially for medical or relational trauma

• Practical tools for boundaries, coping with pain cycles, and reducing fear of flare-ups

The goal is not to convince you the pain is psychological, but to help your body feel safer, steadier, and more trustworthy over time, alongside appropriate medical care.

Credentials & Experience

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor Supervisor (LPC-S) in Texas with experience working at the intersection of chronic pelvic pain, trauma, nervous system dysregulation, and relational stress. My work centers on helping clients understand how lived experiences and stress physiology can interact with pain—without minimizing medical complexity.

Practical Details & Constraints

• Location requirement: Clients must be physically located in Texas at the time of session

• Care model: Outpatient psychotherapy (not crisis or inpatient care)

• Payment: Private pay only

• Collaboration: Therapy can be part of a broader care team but does not replace medical diagnosis, pelvic floor physical therapy, or medication management

Not The Right Fit

Our work may not be the best fit if:

• You need immediate crisis support, inpatient care, or a higher level of care than weekly outpatient therapy

• You are seeking pelvic floor physical therapy, medical diagnosis, or medication management

• You are looking for guarantees or rapid symptom elimination rather than gradual nervous system change

• You want therapy that is strictly cognitive or skills-only and are not open to body-based or trauma-informed work

• You require insurance-based services

• You are not physically located in Texas at the time of session

Strong Match Indicators

This is a strong referral match for clients seeking:

• Therapy for chronic pelvic pain with a nervous-system or trauma-informed lens

• Support for pain that worsens with stress, pressure, or relational dynamics

• A therapist who acknowledges medical complexity without minimizing physical symptoms

• Gentle, consent-based care for individuals with medical or sexual trauma histories

• A therapist who uses EMDR and parts work to address symptoms along with nervous system regulation

TLDR:

I provide trauma-informed therapy for adults in Texas with chronic pelvic pain. I focus on how the nervous system, past experiences, and ongoing stress can amplify physical pain—and help clients feel safer, steadier, and more at home in their body alongside medical care.
