Teletherapy for Saint George, UT

Whether it's constant overthinking, that pit in your stomach, obsessive thoughts, or feeling like the world is constantly about to end, I can help. Many people going through this feel like they are the only one, or like they are going crazy. If you’re feeling overwhelmed and without stress management or coping skills, I can help you in a way that works best for you. I also work with difficult faith transitions or religious trauma. This has likely led to a change in your identity, shifting beliefs, changes in your important relationships, and a lot of anxiety, or to feeling like everything you once believed is now in question.

People experiencing depression, anxiety and trauma / PTSD can have a range of painful experiences. Day to day, chronic irritability can wear on your nerves, damage your relationships, and drive your stress level sky high. Are you on edge as soon as you start getting ready for the day, feeling sensitive, reactive or foggy even though the sun has barely come up? And when the day is done you want to relax but this is when your heart starts to pound in your chest? None of your coping skills seem to help enough-if you can muster the strength and time to use them. This is the reality of depression, anxiety and trauma.

Are you struggling to create the adventurous, meaningful life you imagined, free of anxiety, depression and irritability? I work with ambitious, professional women who want to have better boundaries, healthier relationships and improved self-esteem. My clients reduce people-pleasing behaviors, stabilize their mood and experience greater confidence as they navigate life's seasons and transitions (including motherhood, faith crisis, divorce, loss and much more). Together, we set an expectation that you'll not only be coping better, but having to cope less as we get to the root of the issue with weekly therapy sessions.

As a therapist, religious educator, and army chaplain I have a unique background and passion for helping families, couples, and individuals cope with life's stress. I specialize in helping teens, young adults, and their families overcome anxiety, depression, and conflict. With my training in marriage and family therapy I love helping couples reduce conflict and increase marital satisfaction.

My approach to counseling is, first and foremost, founded on the quality of the therapy relationship itself. I have worked in the the mental health profession for 35 years and for 25 years in private practice as a licensed psychologist in St. George, Utah. I provide individual and relationship counseling in an emotionally safe, supportive environment, drawing on a variety of approaches tailored to meet your needs and support your healing and growth. My integrative approach includes the exploration of mental, emotional, physical, developmental, spiritual, and interpersonal factors, as well as practical skill development.

I value creating an affirming, brave space with adults who have experienced chronic, complex stress and traumas, such as sexual and domestic abuse, religious trauma/LDS faith transitions, attachment and intergenerational trauma, and discrimination and oppression. The residues of these experiences can leave us stuck in perfectionism, people pleasing, depression, anxiety, and disconnection from ourselves and the world. I know the importance of finding a good fit with a therapist with whom you can feel both connected to and challenged by, who will respect you as a whole human, and who will bring a collaborative approach to therapy.

Clients that are seeking self esteem improvement, self-care improvement and reduction in the control anxiety, depression, addiction, anger, chronic pain etc. have on us are my ideal clients. Those who want to manage their concerns so that their concerns stop managing them are my ideal clients. Those who seek counseling and therapy because they want to improve are my ideal clients. I am licensed in the State of Utah and the State of Idaho to provide telehealth services for those in need.

Through my lived experiences through the education system and with family members; I work with my clients in a personalized way in achieving their life goals.

Your time is valuable and your needs are very important. Think about your goals and what you want to accomplish in therapy, or set a goal or goals, so that your search will include a therapist who is experienced in the area(s) you need help in. Some of you need to keep discrete about coming to therapy, some need to fulfill a request. Whatever it is you need I'm someone who has been around a while and can help you answer your questions. Whatever the need is I can help you figure out what is going on and ways to deal with it, so you can find respite.

As your therapist, it is important to me that you feel heard. I offer a safe space where you can express yourself without judgment. My favorite thing about therapy is helping people work through their emotional pain. Life is full of stressors and difficult experiences. Depression and anxiety can make us tired and exhausted. Life can be challenging and having someone who can guide you on your journey can make a world of difference.
