Licensed Professional Counselor, NCC, LPC, CEDS
In-Person in Houston, TX 77065
At the center of Sage Blackbird Therapy is a space for building wisdom through and healing conversation and reflection.
You have something to contribute to this world. Oftentimes, however, the society we live in tells us we need to shed those elements - do better, be better, and “have it all together.”
So often we are caught up in the hustle of what others want for us that we reach the end of the day and feel empty. Like we tried to live out the best version of ourselves and there’s a disconnect. The drive to pursue being someone you’re not can leave you feeling lonely.
And it’s the perfect storm of hiding our authentic selves.

Treatment Approach
- Acceptance & Commitment Therapy (ACT) Helps people accept difficult thoughts and feelings instead of fighting them, while committing to actions that reflect their values. It blends mindfulness with practical behavior strategies.
- Compassion-Focused Therapy (CFT) Builds skills in self-kindness and compassion toward others. It is especially helpful for people who struggle with shame or self-criticism.
- Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) Combines CBT with mindfulness to help regulate emotions, tolerate stress, and build stronger relationships. Originally designed for borderline personality disorder, it’s now used more broadly.
- Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) Focuses on strengthening emotional bonds in couples or families. It helps people identify negative cycles and create more secure connections.
- Feminist Therapy Addresses how gender roles, power, and social inequality affect mental health. It empowers clients to challenge limiting beliefs and systems.
- Internal Family Systems (IFS) Helps clients heal by working with different ‘parts’ of themselves, like inner critics or wounded children. It fosters harmony within the self.
- Narrative Therapy Encourages people to view problems as separate from themselves and reframe their life story. It helps build resilience and self-identity.
