Inclusive Online Therapy for
Complex Trauma
Based in Austin and offering online therapy in Texas.
Welcome to your space for compassionate, inclusive therapy.
I’m so glad you’re here! I help people who feel stuck in a cycle of over functioning, people pleasing, disconnection and overwhelm learn to break this cycle and get to a place of grounding, clarity and authenticity.
I believe that everyone deserves the opportunity to heal childhood wounds, and to live authentically and fully present in their own body and life.
You aren’t alone, and you don’t have to suffer or struggle in silence. If you’re a resident within the state of Texas seeking therapy, I may be the right fit for you.
Who I Help
Many of my clients struggle as you do. On the outside, it looks like they’re doing fine: they go to work, school, meet their responsibilities and then some. But inside, they feel disconnected and overwhelmed.
They’ve pushed through to meet the needs and expectations of others, sometimes to the detriment of their own mental, emotional, and physical health. They’ve tried to navigate challenging or toxic family systems, and have struggled with their sense of self worth, self-esteem and toxic shame.
And this can be a lot to carry.
Together, we can identify the roots of anxiety and depression, heal childhood trauma, and break ground on a new foundation that aligns with your values and needs.
“Never underestimate a cycle breaker. Not only did they face years of generational trauma, but they stood in the face of that trauma and said “This ends with me.” This is brave. This is powerful. This comes at a significant cost. Never underestimate a cycle breaker.”
— Nate Postlethwait
How I can help you:
-
Childhood Complex Trauma
Therapy can help you develop an understanding of how an emotionally challenging, neglectful or distant family dynamic can impact your sense of self, and your relationship with yourself and others.
-
High Functioning Depression
High functioning depression often manifests as a silent battle: on the outside you seem to appear fine, but inside you may struggle with low mood and hopelessness. Therapy offers support in navigating this struggle, helping you regain equilibrium and peace of mind.
-
High Functioning Anxiety
People with high functioning anxiety appear to function well, and often are very productive, but can struggle with persistent worry, self-doubt, and stress. Therapy can help you learn to manage symptoms and work towards your goals in a balanced way.
What’s the Process?
1. Contact Daniela
Once I receive your information, I’ll reach out to you within 2 business days to schedule your free 15 minute consultation. During the consultation, we’ll go over any questions you may have, see if we’re a good fit and discuss logistics.
If you’d like to begin working together, we can schedule your first session.
2. Let’s begin this important work!
Our initial sessions will typically involve going over confidentiality, discussing what’s bringing you to therapy, your experience and symptoms, and begin building a general plan for our work together.
Depending on your needs and availability, I offer sessions once per week or once every other week.
3. Trust your process
Starting therapy, especially if it’s your first time, can bring feelings of anxiety. This is very normal!
I provide a judgment free space where safety and trust are at the center of our work, and you can unpack and process whatever’s going on for you at your own pace.
