Tyler is a Masters level Behavioral Health Coach who holds a B.A. in Child Development and Health & Society from Vanderbilt University and a Master of Science in Social Work from University of Texas at Austin. He brings experience and expertise in working with children, adolescents, adults, and older adults across various settings, including clinical assessments, crisis intervention, and care coordination.

His approach to therapy is warm, non-judgmental, and collaborative blending trauma-informed, person-centered, and neurodiversity-affirming methods while drawing from cognitive and somatic practices. His work aligns with bio-psycho-social-spiritual models of care, focusing on attachment, mindfulness, and strengths-based strategies to help clients navigate life’s challenges. He also enjoys incorporating a bit of lighthearted humor following Marsha Linehan’s philosophy of “irreverence” — caring, grounded, and occasionally deadpan.

In sessions, clients often describe feeling relaxed, calm, and truly seen. He is passionate about creating a safe space where to explore thoughts, emotions, and experiences together. His goal is to help you build self-awareness, resilience, and, ultimately, a life worth living.

Outside of the therapy room, you’ll likely find him enjoying yoga, hiking Austin’s trails, diving into creative hobbies like painting or photography, or playing indie video games.
