A lot of people think therapy is a one-sided conversation, with little opportunity to experience each other as real people. My clients know that I am as real as it gets! I want to help you achieve your goals, learn more about yourself, and understand how your mind and brain work. While progressing along this path, you will enjoy the process of learning about yourself and perceiving yourself in new ways. My experience is that therapy doesn't need to be painful. I know it can be intimidating to call a therapist, but I hope you will call me and see how I can help you.

Thank you for considering me as your clinician. I understand it is difficult to reach out for help. Right now, you may be navigating feelings of shame, embarrassment, and anger. I want you to know, I have been there too, in the middle of the storm, darkness all around. Sometimes in life and in our relationships we all can become "stuck".

Life can be full of obstacles and one wants to ensure that we do not stand in our own way of success.

If so, I would love to partner with you on your journey to overcoming these patterns that tend to be direct obstacles in feeling your best and reaching your absolute potential.

Are you questioning your sexual, gender, racial, or family identity? Are you struggling to make peace with the past while staying in the present? Are your behaviors not in alignment with your values?

My ideal client is one who is interested in finding happiness in love, work and community. My reward during my 30 years in practice is to experience, with individuals and couples, their growth towards these goals. Years in private practice and a major medical setting in New York have given me a broad background in helping people cope with the many challenges life hands them and to help them regain their feelings of hope. Additional focus is placed on life transitions including divorce, retirement, and bereavement. Additionally, I offer guidance in helping your children and teens navigate those challenging years.

I strive to provide unconditional acceptance and support to my clients as they work to achieve their counseling goals. I accept Medicaid and most private insurance.

Life can be stressful and emotionally challenging. It is so common for people to experience overwhelmed or negative emotional states. People can experience anxiety, depression, lack of motivation, anger, and difficulty managing strong emotions. Learning to honor our own experience and look for solutions and coping skills can help us take control of our lives in an empowered way.

One of the bravest things you can do is to explore your own patterns and notice the ways they do or do not serve you.

I commit to support you in noticing your strengths and finding compassion for your stumbles. Together we will grow joy and presence in your life, while learning to attend to, and possibly resolve, unhelpful feelings and patterns.

Sometimes life gets hard and just sucks. Period. End of story! Sometimes this is a result of a negative self-image, life experiences, childhood wounds, a dysregulated nervous system, or downright stinking things. Acknowledging how our core wounds and beliefs can directly impact our behaviors and feelings is the recipe for self-awareness and a meaningful life. I am dedicated to supporting my clients as they try to build a life on an internal value system, reduce symptoms, develop self-awareness, and boost confidence. If you are struggling with your relationship, sadness, stress, or just life dissatisfaction I would love to help.

Voted Utah's Best Therapist 2022 + 2023. My approach centers the wisdom of our body, nature + relationships as the most valuable components in healing. Under enough stress, all humans make adaptations to survival. These survival strategies do a great job when they are first learned, but when continued outside of the context of their creation, they can reenact + reinforce patterns that are no longer helpful. It’s in this understanding that we work together to identify where patterns began, what behaviors were learned for emotional and physical survival + how we can create new ways of interacting in the world that feel more whole.

I am ready for the patient who is ready for the work. I came to this field after being inspired by some of the great forerunners of the field. Introspective work appeals to my sense of analytical inquiry. I am coming to each session with a readiness to tackle and analyze the problem that is getting between where you are and where you want to be. I love working with substance use/abuse behaviors and have spent a portion of my career investing in patients who are at all levels of recovery. I also enjoy working with patients who just want to make small changes.

You feel more alive when you are open and less closed off, but you are growing less and less connected to your life. A part of you is drowning in worry, memory, thought, and the unrealistic expectations of others. You might be ready to open up and experience a new way of being, but you're also unsure. You can't stand the idea of sitting across from a snooty therapist who doesn't "get you", coldly taking notes and blindly asking how you feel. Screw that! You want a real connection with a real person who is offering more than a distant, clinical approach. Maybe you've finally found a therapist as unique and quirky as you are!
