Therapists in Manila, UT

I bring experience and training in a variety of evidence-based mind-body-spirit approaches to help clients clear and heal from old stuck patterns and learn new tools for moving forward and allowing their personal and spiritual growth to unfold.

I have worked with a wide variety of people over the years, and have come to recognize both the commonalities in what makes all of us human, but yet uniquely individual at the same time. These commonalities and differences can both sustain us and frustrate us as we seek meaningful engagement with life and others through work, relationships, and continued self-growth. Often people experience internal stress and anxiety as they feel the push and pull between loneliness on the one hand, and the inevitable mix of emotional challenges that can come with attachment with others.

In order to provide unique and individualized care, I offer a multitude of services such as individual therapy, family therapy, couples counseling, and group therapy. I am licensed to treat clients in both Florida and Utah and I believe in alternative ways of conducting therapy based on the needs of my clients. I have spent the vast majority of my career supporting and counseling clients facing issues ranging from eating disorders and addictions, couples/family conflict, and mood disorders.

Feeling disconnected? Overly stressed or anxious? Wondering what might send you over the edge next? From the outside looking in, no one knows anything is going on. Are you an athlete that has sustained a concussion, injury, accident, or negative experience? You now have fear and pain that keep you from competing or recreating. You struggle with negative self-talk, perfectionism, anxiety, and understanding/feeling your emotions. Imagine if you could more easily understand what you’re feeling and why. Imagine navigating challenges with clarity and confidence, performing at your best, and remembering why you love your sport/recreation.

In life, difficult situations occur. These experiences can make us anxious, question ourselves and our self-worth, and affect our ability to connect with others and plan for the future we desire. Through EMDR, ART, and a mix of other empirically based modalities, it is possible to heal from past trauma, feel more empowered, and increase life satisfaction generally. I have been in the field for twenty years and a therapist for thirteen. I have also been an administrator, supervisor, and trainer for therapists. During that time, I have come to appreciate how change is possible in our lives and in our relationships with others.

Life can be complicated and full of traumatic events that overwhelm us. As a result, problematic patterns that negatively affect almost every area of life may begin. These overwhelming events may also negatively shift beliefs about self, others, and the world at large. Once this occurs, it can be difficult to repair without professional help. Additionally, trauma can be unique to the individual. It's not always a confrontation with mortality but rather, a deep hurt or betrayal by someone we should have been able to trust.

Saddle of Love will be a 501(c)(3) non-profit Equine Assisted Psychotherapy (EAP) program.

We will partner with horses for the exploration of self- awareness, connection and confidence and love to gain new perspectives on life. We offer EMDR, individual, group and family therapy as well as camps, retreats, culinary and horticulture therapy.

I believe that each person has the potential to live the life they truly want and that lasting change is possible. As a strengths-based therapist, I help a client find their strengths are built on and utilized in therapy to help the client work through the difficulties they are experiencing. I create a space where you can tell me anything without fear of judgment or me telling you how you should live life. Therapy is an interactive process and it shouldn’t look the same for each person. I love helping people build their confidence and becoming more assertive. I want to help you build the skills to live your life to the fullest!

Are you sick of feeling overwhelmed? Does it feel like you keep trying to move forward and there's something holding you back? Are you tired of taking care of everyone else around you and never having time to take care of yourself? Have you tried to feel better, lose weight or workout and still struggle with being comfortable with who you are? If you answered yes to any of these questions then you are in the right spot. We know that we can help you develop the necessary tools to equip you to face and overcome your challenges.

Therapy should be approached in a nonjudgmental fashion. We come from all walks of life, and our views and values may vary. Together we can create a safe and inviting atmosphere for you to tell your story and be heard. I work with children, adolescents, and adults from varying backgrounds and with different presenting needs. I can assist you in self-exploration at your desired level to help you understand how past and present experiences impact your current life to help you gain a deeper understanding of yourself so you can live a healthier, more satisfying life.
