Hi! I'm glad you've taken this step. Finding a safe, supportive space to work through life's challenges is important, and I look forward to working with you! As a Clinical Mental Health and Addictions Counselor, I’m passionate about walking alongside adults and elders as they navigate challenges like addiction, anxiety, depression, and trauma. My approach is rooted in person-centered and narrative therapy, meaning I focus on your unique story, strengths, and goals as we work together toward healing. As an enrolled member of the Blackfeet Tribe and a Montana native, I value connection, family, and the healing power of humor.
I value the power of listening and understanding each person’s unique story. In our work together, we'll utilize evidence-based approaches, mindfulness, and trauma-informed practices to support and empower you on your journey.
My goal is to create a therapeutic space that feels warm, collaborative, and free of judgment, where you can feel safe to explore, heal, and grow. I welcome the opportunity to connect and explore whether I’m the right fit for your needs.
