Therapists in Millcreek, UT

I'm an experienced child and family therapist ready to assist you in dealing with life challenges that come your way. As a parent and professional, I understand the many struggles attached to this journey through life. I also work with adults in helping to discover a place of healing and happiness. I love connecting with others and creating a safe and trusting environment to feel heard or understood. I'm humbled when individuals, both children and adults, open their hearts and allow me to support them along their treatment path.

If you are dissatisfied in your life or career, have difficulties parenting, or experience symptoms such as excessive worry, anxiety, depression, low self-esteem, I invite you to contact me. Together we can identify strategies and build skills to give you the tools to live a more satisfying and productive life. The habits you developed and use unconsciously in your day to day life may not be serving you. Great news! You have the power to examine your tendency to repeat the same mental and behavioral responses that have led to your current difficulties. You can make positive changes in how you experience your life. Let's get started.

Do you feel alone and unbalanced, like you’re spread thin without relief in sight? Do you feel guilty for not feeling the way you “should”? Have you lost hope? Stress and despair around issues such as pregnancy loss, infertility, pregnancy complications, birth trauma, unplanned pregnancies, postpartum anxiety and depression and the transition to parenthood often go unaddressed, leaving women and their families feeling disjointed and alone. It's time to break the silence and reclaim the hope you deserve. Your story is unique and warrants individualized attention as you work to rebuild in a safe, supportive environment.

Together, we can explore and understand the underlying root cause of your emotions and behaviors to strengthen your well-being and cultivate resilience. As a counselor, I am committed to creating a nonjudgmental and safe space where you can freely express yourself.
