Does this sound Familiar?

You want to feel peaceful, connected and valued
but instead you find yourself:

  • People-pleasing to avoid criticism, so you feel unseen and unworthy

  • Carrying the echos of painful memories that time has not healed

  • Exhausted by all your attempts to improve yourself, but not feeling better

  • Certain that you’re doing everything all wrong and everyone knows it

  • Afraid that you’re stuck like this and afraid of how change might mess it up more

Girl, you can Feel Free of it all.

hI. i’m Larissa.

I provide online therapy in Texas and I know Exactly how to help.

As a trauma specialist and EMDR certified therapist, my superpower is helping Gen Z and Millennial women uproot harmful internalized messages that lead to people-pleasing, perfectionism and self-doubt. This allows you to find balance in your life and feel capable of meaningful connections. Working with me involves

  • A deep detox of your painful memories

  • Making more sense of your story and feeling comfortable in your own skin

  • Learning to trust yourself and others (as you so choose)

  • Building relationships that feel good, using a healthy attachment framework

Getting down to the root of a struggle is never easy. It’s especially hard to gain perspective on your experiences when your relationship with your parents is complicated. Maybe your family dealt with substance abuse, divorce, erratic behavior or just never felt connected. This can result in major confusion about what you can expect from yourself and others, much less how to pursue real change. I can help  clarify WHY the things you experienced in the past continue to make your life harder than it has to be. Then we can work to make it easier.



Together, we are the
dream team.

You are the expert in your own story.
I’m the professional with the tools to reprogram the ways you still hurt.
Just imagine what we can do.

  • If it still hurts, it's trauma.

    Trauma is not defined by having a “bad enough” experience. It's simply the presence of any wound that remains. Any pain is worth healing.

  • Take your Self back.

    All the way back. We’ll work together to release anything old that still has its hooks in you and free you up to take it from here, on your own terms.
    We’ve got this!

  • Feel it to heal it.

    The only way out is through.

  • Be yourself.

    What’s your other option? Pretending all the time?
    0/10 Do not recommend.

  • It's not your fault you were hurt.

    It is your responsibility to take it from here. Which sucks, I know.
    I really want to help.

  • You're stuck. It happens.

    You’re not broken, flawed, ruined, impossible, too much, too little or unworthy. Just human. Which is allowed.

  • This is not "who you are". It's your strategy to avoid more pain.

    Perfectionist, people-pleaser, codependent, self-doubter, empath, highly sensitive, black sheep, rebellious, overthinker, control freak….etc.
