I love helping people address needs related to relationships, family, children, faith, and self-development. I am interested in the intricacies, challenges, and healing of relationships which involves honest appraisal and assessment of interpersonal communications which affect the most important aspects of personhood and human interactions. I enjoy the adventure of accompanying clients as they seek resolution of the challenges of living with ourselves and others in the world. The ultimate goal, in my current understanding, is to be at peace with who we are, who we have been, and continue striving to become the person we want to be.

Ever think: "How did I end up here?" or "I never imagined {life event} would happen to me!" You are not alone! We can all relate to these sentiments. Most people do not end up in therapy because circumstances are unicorns and rainbows. Are you struggling with loss, or making meaning out of events that have left you feeling uncertain, shaken, in agony? Do you feel like you are starring in a scene from the film Ground Hog Day, where life is a series of frustrating, repeating events? You can make a successful transition to break this cycle, whatever that personal change is. You will get a sense of control back. A little Zen. Some hope.

As a 5th-generation Montanan, I have experienced the value of deep roots and being connected to a place, a people, and a story. I believe relationships are at the heart of every story, and am passionate about helping individuals, families, and children reconnect with others and reconnect with themselves to make sense of their past, present, and future. I have training in individual therapy for adults and minors, couples therapy, and family systems. Whether working with adults, children, or families, I believe relationships are the mechanism for healing and that my relationship with my clients is a starting point for change.

I have worked for three decades with individuals seeking to overcome a wide variety of issues related to addiction, depression, anxiety, establishing a sense of identity and purpose that feels good to them, forming healthy habits, achieving intimacy and maintaining relationships, attaining life goals, and overcoming many forms of trauma. I have worked with adolescents, adults, families, couples, combat veterans, professional athletes, medical professionals, as well as adolescents and adults with diverse ethnic, indigenous, sexual, gender, and cultural identities. It is such an honor to assist in the discovery of personal truths.

Life is unpredictable with many challenges and changes that occur to us all. Some changes are simply difficult to transition and manage. No one has to do it alone. Connecting with a trained therapist is not only helpful and comforting it's often necessary. By offering a warm, respectful, and non-judgmental environment, I offer support and guide my clients through their unique experiences in order to achieve a state of mind beyond the pain and difficulty.Contact me If you're looking for support and guidance through life's challenges or simply seeking to improve the quality of your life.

My therapy practice specializes in mood disorders, working with individuals, couples and families. I am also a Board Certified Executive Coach and specialize in business coaching and leadership development with an emphasis on Emotional Intelligence. Through a fun, collaborative relationship, there is always a way to address the issues you face and learn coping strategies to help you both right now and in the future. Depression, anxiety, substance abuse, trauma, marital conflict, job stress, career and life transitions.

Life is full of uncertainties. Many of them can unexpectedly destabilize us, causing stress, despair, anxiety, and even depression. Such circumstances could prevent a mentally, physically, and emotionally healthy life, where hope for change is not visible. If you feel identified with this, I want to tell you that you are not alone. Seeking help is the first step in finding a way out and seeing the light among adverse/unexpected circumstances. Therapy helps you explore the causes, thoughts, emotions, and patterns that block and prevent you from moving forward. Together we can find the way out.

Life is difficult to navigate in the best of circumstances. We often carry with us a past that influences how we interact with others, our perception of the way others interact with us, and the patterns we form in our relationships. You do not have to navigate these waters alone. Therapy can help support your individual, family and relationship goals. I understand it takes courage to ask for help and I want to make the process easy for you.

It's no secret that life is full of obstacles and hardships, notably so with all of the changes we have experienced in our lives these last few years. I am proud to offer individual, couples, and family talk-therapy; with both in-person and virtual appointments available for residents of WA and MT. My mission is to connect with clients in a way that highlights their strengths whilst respecting the dignity and worth of the person. I believe in the autonomy of all individuals to make their own decisions, striving toward the client-centered model. Let's find our common ground, set your goals, and work to grow in a positive direction.

In therapy I don't just help people walk through their struggles, I help them discover what those problems are, and where they came from. In the office, I use psychodynamic, existential, and relational approaches to understand both why folks want to change, and why they haven't been able to, fully honoring that reluctance in order to make therapy enduring and empowering, ages 3 through 93, for families, couples, and individuals.

As a therapist, my aim is to meet you where you are. I help by fostering a safe, non-judgmental environment, centered on exploring the unique issues and struggles which brought you to therapy. I will provide support and understanding within the therapeutic relationship for you to better understand yourself and the difficulties you are having. In this process you can learn to understand and manage the obstacles that have led to the struggles whether it be in your mood, behaviors, self-esteem, jobs, and/or relationships. I believe in the most difficult of times there is also an opportunity for change and growth.

My approach is client-driven and integrative. I start with assessing developmental history, losses and trauma, and behavioral health issues. I then clarify with the client how I can assist them with their identified goals.

Within my 10 years of counseling experience, I have worked with a wide-range of patients from all ages with many different difficulties. I was trained in family therapy, and throughout my career have focused on couple's therapy as a specialization. In 2012, I began working with veterans and survivors of trauma using a combination of narrative and cognitive-behavioral therapies. I have continued to work with a variety of patients, as well as, having the freedom in my practice to continue specializing in couples and trauma survivors.
