Therapists in Hurricane, UT

Do you need hope that your life can improve? Are you having the same go no-where arguments with the ones you love? Are those arguments with yourself? I help clients feel hopeful as they discover greater satisfaction in their personal and sexual relationships. I can help you to find and use your strengths to get un-stuck. My work and training for last 17 years has focused on complex PTSD, attachment, neurobiology and addiction. I am trained in Somatic Experiencing, a unique and evidenced based form of psychotherapy to treat trauma. If you have tried EMDR and found it minimally helpful, this may be a good approach for you.

I specialize in trauma, domestic abuse and addiction. I also help clients that struggle with depression, anxiety, relational issues and interpersonal struggles. I use a comprehensive, integrative approach to healing (EMDR) as well as CBT, DBT and Mindful practices.EMDR is a systematic process of healing that promotes emotional stability by helping to free the mind from past thoughts, memories and behaviors that are present in daily life. The mindful approach to emotional healing works through conscious change in perspective. Being consciously aware of unconscious thoughts helps in the process of change. This mindful practice changes how you view yourself and the world around you.

“You yourself, as much as anybody in the entire universe, deserve your love and affection.” I always tell my clients that if they take anything away from therapy, let it be to know that no relationship is more important than the relationship you have with yourself. With this mindset, I become an ally to help my clients set goals and address various issues while building self love, empowerment and compassion. I work well with client that are ready to do the hard work of therapy and I do everything in my power to make sure they know how strong and supported they are for doing doing this. Therapy isn't easy and together we got this!

I am an empathetic therapist specializing in the treatment of children and young adults. I enjoy using Play Therapy techniques, as play is truly the language children use for communicating and healing. I enjoy the challenge, honesty, and rewards of working with kids. I have experience working with co-parenting, trauma, grief, anxiety, depression, Autism Spectrum, ADHD, addiction, violence related issues, and LGTBQ. I also enjoy working with parents, utilizing some techniques from Gottman Institute, Love and Logic, and Incredible Years curriculum. I look forward to working cooperatively with your child and family.

I am passionate about supporting those ready and willing to face the trials and traumas that we all experience on some level. I love working with individuals seeking support to create change in their lives. It is easy to get stuck and we often hold onto past traumas and hurts that can create mental, emotional, physical and spiritual dis-ease. Finding your way back to self is critical in living a heart centered life and that is my hope for you. Healing is possible and we are not meant to walk this path alone. One of my mantras is "Turn your pain into your purpose". I do believe we can make peace with our past. Are you ready?
