I believe that it is important to be heard and understood in our most important relationships. As a marriage and family therapist, I help individuals, couples and families to communicate and connect around stressful challenges and changes in life. I will help you figure out your feelings, talk about hard things and connect around difficult topics so that you have increased fulfillment in your relationships and better face mental health stress experienced in your life. Before becoming a therapist, I mentored teens and participated in college-level stunting. I enjoy working with teens and understand their struggles.

You worry all the time and wonder what is wrong with you. You notice others around you going about their day, laughing and having fun, when all you think about is what is going to go wrong next. You go round and round in your head with questions like “What if my loved one gets cancer or dies?” “What if I lose my job?” “What if my home burns down?” You know your worries are overboard but don't know how to stop worrying. Your mind spins out of control until you feel completely overwhelmed. When you try to sleep at night, it is the worst, as your mind doesn’t stop for hours until you pass out from exhaustion.

Stress, self-doubt, and worry can be difficult enough to manage on our own when things are "normal," but when you add the impact of the recent events our society is dealing with they can seem overwhelming. Whether a teenager or an adult, stress and trauma can make us question who we are and what's important to us. Negative emotions and thoughts get in the way of our relationships with other people and make us feel like we aren't able to be the person we want to be. Therapy can be a wonderful tool to help you make changes which bring more control and confidence in to your life.

One of my personal mottos is “I am still learning” and I use the same perspective with clients as we work to address your needs in therapy together. Through the therapeutic process, I hope to empower you with greater understanding and compassion for yourself and for what you are learning from your experiences and choices. I am an advocate for educating the general public about mental health. I believe in the power of an individual to make personal and global change. I love helping individuals gain greater insight into thought, feeling and behavior patterns that you feel are no longer serving your best interests.

I specialize in trauma, emotional dysregulation, and relational challenges. You may be tempted to believe there is something fundamentally wrong with you. Maybe you never feel good enough, worthy, or lovable. Perhaps you are trapped in certain patterns of thought, feeling, or behavior that you feel powerless to change. As a trauma-informed therapist, I believe there is nothing fundamentally wrong with you. A more accurate question is, “What happened to you?"

My clients have come to therapy because they know something needs to change. They are looking for some relief from constant negative thoughts and emotions that interfere with their life and relationships. The cause of these issues may be anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder, unprocessed trauma, situational stresses, family problems, or many other factors which seem overwhelming. They may be feeling stuck or at a crisis point in their lives. At this point they reach out to a counselor who will show that they will really listen and understand the client's perspective. It is this caring connection that creates hope for change.

I use a strengths based approach and offer traditional as well as equine-assisted therapy. Starting therapy can be intimidating and scary. I am here to help you through this process!

The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints Therapists
Why is it important for a therapist to be culturally sensitive?
Therapists and clients don’t need to share the same belief system or background to be able to work together effectively, but, especially for those whose concerns relate to their religion or cultural background, a therapist whose training includes a focus on cultural competence may be better able to form a therapeutic bond, even if they do not have an extensive history with or understanding of their client’s background before therapy begins.
Why is it important to find a therapist sensitive to Church of Christ/Latter Day Saints values?
Each individual brings a unique history and background to therapy, making it important to find a licensed therapist who is trained in a broad range of therapeutic modalities. In addition, for people who grow up in a faith tradition such as LDS that strongly influences the conduct of everyday life, finding a therapist who understands or shares that background can ease the disclosure of sensitive information and facilitate the therapeutic process.
Why might someone feel comfortable with an LDS-attuned therapist?
While qualifications and experience are always important, research has long established that a strong alliance between client and therapist is a major contributor to therapeutic effectiveness. It is wise to find a therapist who is responsive to your questions and concerns and with whom you feel you can establish a rapport. A therapist who is sensitive to LDS values and beliefs and the role they play in the lives of Church members can offer Mormon clients a welcome sense of safety, assurance that their community and culture will be understood, and contribute to the bond between client and therapist, all of which support the therapeutic process.
How do I recognize a good LDS therapist?
LDS therapists are licensed mental health professionals—holding a master’s or doctoral degree in medicine, nursing, psychology, counseling, social work, or marriage and family therapy—who are also familiar with Mormon principles and values. They have an understanding of the culture and the important role the Church plays in the lives of individuals and families, which allows them to be especially sensitive to the kinds of emotional difficulties those raised in the faith can be prone to. Like all effective therapists, a good LDS therapist will have undergone training and certification in a variety of treatment modalities that help people through crises and enable them to master the challenges of everyday life.
Who is included in Psychology Today’s directory of Mormon/LDS therapists?
The directory of LDS therapists includes therapists who have shared their cultural background in their profiles. However, not all therapists choose to disclose this information; these individuals would not appear in search results for this reason. The directory also shows therapists who indicate that they have extensive experience working with LDS clients and/or communities, regardless of their own background or religious affiliation.
