If you’re looking for a place to heal, grow, and explore what you want your future to hold, therapy can be a powerful way to reach your goals. Starting such an odyssey of self-discovery takes courage, but it is well worth the effort to make your hopes become realized. I work with a range of client issues, including depression, anxiety, OCD, PTSD, grief, ADHD, DID, relationship issues and life transitions.

I chose to become a mental health professional because I firmly believe in people's ability to change and create fulfilling lives. With the ebb and flow of life, sometimes we just need a little help. As a veteran, I bring a diverse perspective to my work. I understand the importance of perseverance, teamwork, and resilience—qualities that inform my approach to counseling. I bring a compassionate and personalized approach to therapy as each client's journey is unique. I provide a supportive therapeutic relationship that can give you the space you need to learn more about yourself and what you need to overcome life's challenges.

Hi! I am a bilingual therapist with over 20 years of experience. In 2000, I finished my Counseling education at Arizona State University. For the first few years, I worked in an in-patient mental health facility. Over time, I was more drawn to outpatient work and began starting my own Private Practice in 2006 called Life Transitions Counseling. Recently, I have spent time traveling the world working as a Military Family Life Counselor, aiding in the mental health care of our service members and their family members.

In the past thirty years of practice, I've come to deeply understand that all therapy is, in a sense, grief therapy. I began working as a volunteer with Hospice, and although I am trained and practiced in trauma and developmental techniques, I specialize my work with grief and loss. I help my clients walk through the profoundly life-changing territory of losses that can seem impossible to accept and heal from. Because we live in a culture that makes little room for it, I create a place and time for people to unpack their losses and, with time, grow into acceptance. Please let me know if I can help.

As a seasoned and experienced Counselor, I take a holistic (comprehensive) approach in psychotherapy focusing on all parts of a person which includes the emotional, social, biological, environmental, spiritual/philosophical (meaning and purpose), and psychological components that make us whole. And if you are in need of psychiatric medications, I work with a Psychiatrist in the area and you will have access to this service.

When we experience hardship without community support, we learn to defend against emotions that would be simply too much to hold alone. I identify as a pansexual genderqueer woman and I honor therapy as a space where all of our identities are important. I work with the nervous system and show up as my real, genuine self. My clients typically come to therapy when their defenses hold them back from loving relationships or a fulfilling life. These very same defenses were often formed to survive oppression in relationships, work environments, and school, and are a symbol of our resiliency as people.
