I work with young women, millennials, teen girls, and young couples.
I believe we can all make change in our lives with a little support. My approach to counseling is person-centered and strengths-based. I also incorporate cognitive-behavioral therapy, solution-focused brief therapy, and building coping skills to handle life challenges. In summary: I will help you to live life intentionally with a few extra tools.

Few behaviors can be as potentially devastating to a young person's future as sexual offending. The ramifications carry long lasting negative consequences. For youth and young adults in this situation, STAR Guides delivers the most impactful, life-changing therapeutic experience available for sexual behavior problems. STAR guides provides a comprehensive assessment and treatment for youth and young adults who have committed or been accused of sexual offending behaviors in a remote wilderness venue, setting it apart from other more traditional forms of treatment.

Research suggests that for many, sexual problematic behavior first begins during the adolescent years.
The first of its kind nationally, STAR Guides offers wilderness therapy that has been uniquely designed for adolescent males combating pornography addiction, cyber-sex addiction, and other compulsive sexual behaviors. This is a particularly effective intervention for those who have been unsuccessful in the past in breaking free from their addictions. Completely unplugged from technology and modern society, addicted teens learn new ways to deal with difficult emotions and problems while exploring the remote high desert of Utah. This life changing experience provides youth with the foundation to build their adult life, free from sexual addiction. Youth who participate in the program come to more fully understand pornography and sexual addiction and the accompanying behaviors while being provided the opportunity to develop skills to eliminate the addictions from their lives. Youth gain awareness of the addiction cycle, the science of pornography addiction, the underlying emotional issues leading to addiction, thinking errors and most importantly, the program provides a strong focus on abstinence maintenance and the creation of a recovery plan for youth to use for maintaining long term abstinence after they have completed treatment.
This research-based course includes 10 engaging sessions covering such topics as study skills, college course navigation techniques, and advocating skills, all intended to strengthen postsecondary readiness for JUNIOR and SENIOR students.

I provide a 16-week substance abuse recovery group. The focus is on learning about the brain chemistry elements of addiction and how to help your brain recover. It is an educational and skill-building group, not a "process group" where you focus on your story or history of addictive behaviors. Refunds are available if you are not completely satisfied with the group.

Hope.Relief.Freedom. Life has gotten progressively more difficult over the last few years. People of all ages are struggling with fatigue, discouragement, despair, and even hopelessness. All of these things result in poor performance in regulating emotions and navigating relationships, controlling behavior (especially for kids and teenagers), focusing your attention and concentration, jobs and careers, sports, academics, and daily life. Despite what you've heard, and maybe come to believe, you and your kids can put all those life "performance difficulties" behind you and thrive in a way you perhaps have never imagined.

I have experience working with trauma, clients who have been sex trafficked, anxiety, life transitions, and grief and loss. My primary focus is working with clients who have experienced developmental or intergenerational trauma. My office hours are generally Monday-Friday 8-4.
