I am passionate about helping people heal trauma, anxiety, shame, depression, or perfectionism related to feelings of inadequacy or worthlessness. I empower people to shed feelings of guilt or over-responsibility for others. I help people develop greater compassion within themselves, as well in marriage, parenting, and other relationships. Yes, it takes work to make changes, but I provide skills and a safe place to make and sustain those changes. Studies show when we live with more compassion, we have less anxiety, depression, and conflict. I love supporting people and couples on their journey to live with more compassion.
I specialize in couples, families, and individual work (13 and older) using Compassion-focused therapy and Integrative Couples Behavioral Therapy which are highly effective for change. In person sessions available in St. George, UT. Telehealth sessions available for individuals, couples, and families throughout TX & UT. I'm here to help!
For 15 years, I've helped couples find joy and connection in their marriages, families increase closeness, and individuals to live with greater self-compassion and fulfillment. I work from a place of client empowerment with a continual growth mindset. I have seen amazing changes happen in people's lives. AAMFT approved Supervisor for LMFTAs in UT & TX.
