Thank you for considering me on your journey to wellness! I have answered the call of hundreds of people over the past 8 years to help with numerous challenges, including depression, anxiety, alcohol use, substance use, family matters, relationship challenges, self-esteem, and communication. I've helped veterans and first responders cope more effectively with the stressors of their job. Over the course of my life, I've developed a mission: "Nobody left behind." What that means for you is when you work with me, you have my full attention, care, and concern. You matter! You're important! You're looking for help and I can help you.

Struggling with the aftermath of betrayal, abandonment, abuse, or neglect? Feeling disconnected from your partner? Using ways of coping with difficult emotions and it leading to more stress and problems in your life? Finding it difficult to feel committed to your current relationship or like something is getting in the way of escaping out of a toxic relationship? Questioning your parenting of your struggling teenager? Have a teen experiencing depression, anxiety, suicidal thoughts, or self harm? I have experience addressing these issues in private and residential treatment settings working with teens, adults, couples, and families.

I believe counseling can facilitate learning how to deeply heal from what has wounded us, and what may still be hurting us. Dr. Steven C. Hayes suggests “we hurt where we care and care where we hurt”. Paradoxically, pain is often deeply connected to the values of the heart. Therapy is often re-connecting or discovering our own values – qualities of being and doing – is an ongoing process of implementing larger and larger values-based patterns through trial and error.

I was born in Lehi, Utah and attended Weber State University studying Technical Sales. After working in the Sales and Service industry for several years, I began working at the State of Utah Department of Corrections. After 10 years as an officer, I attended the University of Phoenix to obtain a master’s degree in Mental Health Counseling and created Opportunity Center LLC serving clients in need of court ordered treatment. My clinic has expanded to domestic violence treatment, private insurance clients, EAP and first responder support. I provide telehealth therapy services.

My approach to therapy is empathic, collaborative, and unique to each individual's own needs. I believe the most important component of effective counseling is a genuine relational connection. I strive to create a therapeutic environment in which clients feel comfortable, respected, supported, and understood so that they may actively explore personal issues and experiment with new ways of thinking and behaving. Too often we spend our lives living either in the past or in the future, and consequently struggling with feelings of depression or anxiety.

Trauma and EMDR are my passions due to personal experiences with PTSD and the healing I’ve witnessed and experienced through EMDR. I have worked with individuals in a generalized practice experience including anxiety, depression, OCD, suicidality, childhood abuse, etc... Am gaining an increased skill level with those who have experienced PTSD, complex PTSD, Dissociative Disorders (general), & Dissociative Identity Disorder. Attachment Theory, Adaptive Information Processing Model, Polyvagal Theory and Systems Theory are the bases from which I work.
