Along with my counseling experience, my work experience as Director of Youth and Young Adult Ministries at First United Methodist Church-Corpus Christi and my work with Laity Lodge Family Camp allow me to meet my clients exactly where they are in their story.
I believe that every individual, marriage, and family has their own story that comes with unique challenges and difficulties. These difficulties can lead to frustration and unwanted stress in life that can be difficult to navigate alone. I actively work to help you create the space to work through life’s difficulties and to build lasting and meaningful relationships in life. I have experience working in hospital and clinical settings alongside individuals with mood and personality disorders, suicidal ideation, marriage/couples, and other struggles "big" or "small" with every age individuals.

Clients often say “who can I trust with my most personal and private feelings and thoughts?", "Will the counselor truly understand what I am going through?", or "I feel hurt and so alone." To seek counseling is personal. Counseling is a safe and a non-judgmental environment setting. The Therapist-Client relationship is built on trust. It allows the counseling process to be less intimidating. With that said, many everyday life events are solvable within 1 to 12 counseling sessions or as needed. Many mental health disorders are treatable and manageable. Let me help you develop a healthier approach to life as it presents itself.

I enjoy working with clients of all ages, from all cultural backgrounds and from all walks of life. I offer outreach therapy for individuals, couples, families, and groups. After graduate school, I moved to Massachusetts, where I worked in both the traditional office setting, and in outreach, where I counseled clients in their homes. My lifelong love and appreciation for the outdoors called me to make a bold move to Montana. This is where I was exposed to the many opportunities to use my love of the outdoors to enrich the therapeutic process.

Family Therapy
What do family therapists do?
A family therapist facilitates the process of understanding and improving how a family functions. The therapist will help family members develop empathy for one another. They’ll seek to understand existing patterns, misunderstandings, and conflicts that arise, in order to help the family arrive at a realistic, unified understanding and develop the coping skills they need to build stronger relationships.
How long does therapy for families take to work?
Therapy manifests differently in every family; a common time frame is 12 weekly sessions, but some families may see improvement after just a few weeks. Families should discuss their goals with the therapist at the beginning of the process and periodically revisit those goals to assess their progress together.
How can you encourage a family member to attend family therapy?
You can encourage family members to attend therapy by expressing with both love and concern the challenges you see and explaining how a therapist could help the family navigate those challenges together. An outside perspective can help everyone feel heard, get on the same page, and develop new skills. If family members are still hesitant, it may be helpful to emphasize that family therapy is short-term—it won’t last forever.
Is therapy for families effective?
Family therapy can significantly improve family dynamics and relationships. Research suggests that family therapy can help individuals understand their role in the family, communicate and solve problems together, reduce conflict and draw boundaries when necessary, and develop coping skills for stressors, major life changes, and mental or physical illnesses within the family.
