Shame can make anything feel worse, no matter how bad it already feels. I am an enemy of shame, and we will fight it together. Trauma, Addiction, Bipolar Disorder, and major life changes causes stress. Our strengths connect to our problems, and we can use those strengths to find solutions. Be yourself, after all that is a good thing to be. You can always be open, you will never be judged in our sessions, and all of our work will always be individualized. I now offer Prime For Life Alcohol & Drug classes, required by Utah courts for DUI charges, and can provide a certificate of completion to satisfy the court.
My background is in a Harm Reduction approach, which means finding individualized goals specific to your needs. We will assess those needs together, without a one-size-fits-all program. Modern trauma therapy techniques such as IFS, EMDR, Somatic Techniques, and DBT embrace the belief that personal choice and comfort with treatment is vital to recovery.
In 2014 I began hosting & producing podcast sharing information about mental health and healing on The Broken Brain podcast, a free resource dedicated to sharing understanding of psychology, culture, art, and recovery.
