Pain can either define us or serve as the driving force for personal growth. I have dedicated an extensive amount of time to working with children, teens, parents, and adults who struggle with impulse control, existential crises, emotional challenges, and behavioral disturbances. I firmly believe that knowledge alone is insufficient; true change goes beyond conceptualization—it requires action. Clients require proven tools to actively pursue self-sufficiency.

Sometimes we catch our selves in the midst of chaos and often times we don't even know how we got there! It does not matter what situation you are in, your don't have to stay there, things can get better and you can come out of your present situation better and stronger. We have a variety of well trained, supervised and/or experienced therapists that can help you.

Do you find yourself exhausted, struggling to maintain relationships, and questioning if this is all there is? Worrying at night when you need to be sleeping? Are you searching for more meaning and connection? These challenges manifest in dissatisfying jobs, difficulties with intimacy, people pleasing, self-doubt, an inability to set boundaries, or lacking purpose. You are doing your best, but its still not good enough? Reconnecting with your intuition, standing in your power, and manifesting the life you truly deserve can be difficult tasks. The good news is that you can make change today by starting therapy. I honor your courage.

My therapeutic approach is holistic, human, and individually tailored to meet the needs of clients in their current situations. As a therapist, I am a down-to-earth person who sees myself as equal to my clients, sharing a non-judgmental space to promote and honor personal growth and healing. I work with a large variety of relational issues related to transitional life experiences, as well as common mental health concerns and diagnoses. I have significant experience in sex therapy and relational issues, as well as working with non-traditional/chosen families and diverse populations. I served as a faculty member in the UNLV Couple and Family Therapy Program for the past decade supervising interns and teaching sex therapy, sexuality, and diversity. Consequently, I have enjoyed many years of working with trans, non-binary, poly, and related communities. I am passionate about working with all couple and family dynamics as well as desired individual growth in your specific context.

Whether it's gaining spiritual insight and awareness, strengthening your personal relationships, healing from past trauma, or embodying authentic power, I'm here to help you create a life filled with depth, truth, meaning, love, expansiveness, and peace. I’m doing it for myself, breath by breath, and I’d love to help you arrive, too! I offer Spiritual Guidance Counseling, Couples Counseling, Shamanic Healing, Jungian Sandplay Therapy for Adults, Ayahuasca Integration Therapy, Hapé Ceremonies, Sound Healings, Yoga Nidra Meditations, and Empowerment Coaching.

Life can become overwhelming, making it difficult to maintain important roles or relationships. That the ways you’ve managed to this point seem to have lost their impact or have become a part of the problem. These situations may leave you feeling confused, directionless, or unmotivated. It can begin to feel as if you have no traction as your confidence in who you were recedes and is replaced with pressure to “just do or be this”. The difficulty to find a way to live life on your terms, to be who you want to be, can bring on feelings of hopelessness when facing things alone.

When you come in to work with me, we will pursue therapy in a safe way and learn to open new doors to create a better future for yourself. We are ever-changing and we need to learn to adapt to all of our new changes and how to move forward with them.

“Tell me, what is it you plan to do with your one wild and precious life?” With over a decade of experience, I specialize in adult relationships and the physiological impact that adverse life experiences have on mental health and the body. If you are struggling with maintaining healthy relationships with yourself or your loved ones, grappling with the ability to rest and regulate emotions, and have faced tragedy, neglect, or abuse—I'm here to listen. A therapist talking about trauma is different from treating trauma. I have a passion for treating trauma; with a focus on attachment needs. I am EMDR trained.

Whether new to therapy or not, my clients come to me looking to expand their personal growth, gain new mindsets, and learn to navigate those inner, choppy waters that keep them up at night. Being human is messy and I love the messiness of being human. My clients are able to build a new solid ship and stronger sail to navigate the endless seas of possibilities ahead of them. Our journey together can focus on your relationships, family, work, or, just you; but let's always start with you. It can be scary and confusing facing your fears on your own. I am here to be your guiding North Star.
