You might be here because something no longer fits—your faith, a relationship, a role you were taught to carry, or the version of yourself that learned to stay quiet to belong. You may be feeling anxious, overwhelmed, disconnected, or stuck in patterns that are making daily life harder to navigate. You’re thoughtful and values-driven, but tired of second-guessing yourself. Therapy can be a place to slow down, rebuild self-trust, and create a life that feels aligned and genuinely yours. Serving clients in Arizona and Utah.
I specialize in supporting clients through faith transitions, identity shifts, divorce, and other major life changes. With specialized training in religious trauma and life transitions, I use EMDR, IFS, and DBT to help you process trauma, rebuild self-trust, and reconnect with your inner authority. Therapy is offered in a calm, affirming space where you can

I offer a trauma-informed, sociological lens that honors the full context of your experience. If you’re seeking a steady, compassionate space to heal and make sense of change, I invite you to reach out
