What I have learned, in my years working in mental health, is that my fellow human beings are resilient, creative, and strong. I have learned that we often do not realize our own strength and power. I believe that each of us has within us an internal wisdom. I want to help you locate that wisdom and bring it forth into your life. My experience is in a variety of outpatient settings and primarily in community mental health. I have worked with people from all walks of life. Each person I meet with is a unique individual. There is no one way to approach the challenges that come up in our lives.

There's something particular about the weight that women carry, not just the hard events themselves, but the expectation to keep going, keep giving, keep managing… I work with women, individuals, and couples who are exhausted from doing exactly that, and who are ready for a space where their story finally gets the full attention it deserves. I specialize in trauma, depression, women's issues, and relationship healing. Using EMDR, CBT, and DBT, we'll work on processing what's underneath (not just managing symptoms!), so the growth you make in sessions actually changes how you feel in your daily life.

Serves Area
I help adults navigate life’s challenges by combining trauma-informed therapy with somatic and movement-based approaches.
My therapeutic style can best be described as warm, straight forward, and humorous. I have a strong belief that my clients are the experts of their own lives and experiences. I view that my job as a therapist is to assist my clients in finding their own meaning, purpose, and direction in life. To do this, I challenge my clients to live their lives authentically and according to their own moral compass. I have a non-judgmental, person-centered therapeutic approach. I work with my clients on taming that inner critic, which I like to refer to as their gremlin, and ever so politely showing it the door.

I work with women who are navigating religious trauma, faith transitions, identity shifts, and the complex experience of being a mother after leaving Mormonism. So many of the women I support were taught to be selfless, agreeable, spiritual, and “good”, often at the expense of their own needs, voice, and intuition. When you’ve spent years being told how to think, what to believe, and who to be, it makes sense that questioning any of that now feels overwhelming, scary, or disorienting.

You want to truly enjoy motherhood, but you feel like you’re always running on empty. You are stuck in the cycle of snapping more easily than you’d like, feeling guilty for it, then snapping again. You say yes even when you’re overwhelmed, apologize when you don’t need to, and quietly wonder why motherhood feels so heavy when you’re trying to do everything “right.” You know logically that you’re enough, but deep down it still feels like you have to prove your worth as a mom, a partner, and a person. Somewhere along the way, you lost yourself.

Couples often come to therapy when communication has broken down, trust feels fragile, or every conversation turns into an argument. If you and your partner feel stuck in the same painful patterns, arguing about the same issues, shutting down, or feeling more like roommates than partners, you are not alone. Many couples wait until things feel urgent or overwhelming before reaching out, and therapy can be a powerful turning point when both partners are ready for change.
