Sometimes you don't really know what you have until you almost lose it. Sexual issues can cause you to lose relationships, jobs, and sometimes, your freedom. You never meant to hurt anyone and so often, things get out of control. The constant worry that someone will find out about your sexual behavior is exhausting. What would be like to live a life with no secrets?

The therapeutic process has been found to be challenging but what is harder to live with a less than a good quality of life. My commitment to assist my client’s can make that therapeutic process less intimidating. Through my dedication and the client’s willingness for change together can assist with the struggles of the client's mental health. The main ingredient is enough courage to take the first step and reach out to a professional for guidance through the healing process. There is no greater strength than addressing those things that are keeping someone from their full potential.

I am so excited for you that you decided to do this! Investing in you is the best choice you could ever make! I am not a regular therapist. I use a holistic approach to help you. What that means is that I come from the perspective of what you have been through in your life gets stuck in your body and you will continue to relive it until you know what it is and I help you to relieve it. By doing this, you start to experience life as it is, instead of having the filter from your past or the anxiety about your future. I am here to help you. Are you hungry for change? Buckle up and enjoy your life, let me help. :)

Feeling stuck in grief or overwhelmed by a major life transition can leave you questioning your identity and your next steps. You might be juggling work pressures while silently coping with loss, unsure of how to process everything that’s happening beneath the surface. These moments often don’t look like crisis—they look like burnout, disconnect, or just getting through the day. With an MA in Clinical Psychology from Alliant International University and over two decades of experience as an LMFT, I help adults who find themselves at these crossroads begin to understand what’s really going on and how they want to move forward.

My work as a therapist for the past 24 years has been focused on helping people uncover what is most authentic, naturally resourceful and vividly alive in each person. The stresses and traumas of living one's life can deaden our connection with ourselves and with those we love. Emotional suffering, isolation, addiction and crisis can be powerful gateways to a deeper foundation of self-acceptance, compassion and inner freedom. Learning to utilize proven tools for recognizing and transmuting pain into the ever deepening and changing experience of your life and relationships are the foundation of our work together.

When your sense of self feels tangled in family dynamics, past trauma, or the weight of others’ expectations, it’s easy to feel invisible—even to yourself. Many of the teens and adults I work with have spent years hiding parts of who they are to keep the peace or protect themselves. This can leave you questioning your identity, your worth, and your place in your own story. With an MS from California Lutheran University and a focus on trauma-informed care, I help individuals—especially those in the 2s/LGBTQIA+ community—begin to unravel these patterns and build more authentic, connected lives.
