I graduated from Brigham Young University with a Masters of Education in School Psychology in 1994 and with a Ph.D. in Clinical Psychology in 2003. As part of that training, I completed a doctoral level internship in clinical child psychology at Primary Children's Hospital. Since then, I have worked in a variety of settings, specializing in child psychology. The majority of my clinical experience has been in working with children who have been traumatized, but I feel comfortable treating the entire range of childhood psychiatric disorders. Overall, I have been working with emotionally/behaviorally challenged children for over 25 years.

Clients and clinicians seeking deeper healing often come to me feeling stuck at work, home, or in anxiety, depression, codependency, ADHD, dissociation, addiction, or the lasting effects of trauma. Many are navigating chronic illness such as cancer and autoimmune disorders or pure exhaustion. With over 30 years of experience, I help clients move forward by creating personalized plans that blend nutrition and mind-body work with practical tools—so they can release old patterns, build self-compassion, and rediscover their healing truth in a safe, non-judgmental space.

Finding the right therapist can feel overwhelming, especially if you’ve spent much of your life holding things together on your own. I work with individuals who are thoughtful, self-aware, and often deeply caring toward others, yet still feel stuck, anxious, disconnected, or unsure why certain patterns keep repeating. Healing from trauma isn’t about erasing the past, it’s about helping your body and mind feel safe again. Whether you’re struggling with anxiety, dissociation, self-blame, or feeling disconnected from others, therapy can help you come home to yourself.

This person is open to self-reflection and motivated to make positive changes in their life. They may be navigating significant life transitions, such as changes in their career, relationships, or family dynamics. They want support because they recognize that they can’t continue on their current path without making changes, and they are committed to doing the inner work required for growth and healing.

FAQ - Therapist Gender
Does it matter what gender my therapist is?
In general, there is no relationship between a therapist’s gender and their efficacy. Some clients, however, prefer to see therapists of a particular gender, whether due to their own past experiences with men and women, or because they feel more comfortable with a therapist of their own gender due to shared life experiences or perspectives. Considering what one wants to address in therapy can help someone determine whether their therapist’s gender may matter or improve their therapeutic experience. The most important consideration is that a client is able to build a trusting relationship with their therapist.

Should I see a female therapist?
Many people—not just women—prefer to see a female therapist. For women, this could be because they believe that they will be able to better connect with a woman, and that a female therapist will be able to relate to their specific challenges and personal issues. It may be particularly beneficial for women to see a female therapist, for example, for gender-specific issues, such as sexism in the workplace, relationship issues, and gender roles. The most important factor in therapy is the client-therapist connection, and a therapist's gender as well as many other factors may play an important role in this.

Do therapists get specific training to help with women’s concerns?
Therapists are trained to provide care to clients of any gender. However, some therapists may pursue additional training in feminist therapy, gender-specific issues, or women’s mental health. Female clients may wish to ask prospective therapists whether they have received specific training in the client’s primary area(s) of concern, or whether they have worked extensively with women on issues similar to their own.

How can I inquire about a therapist’s experience in treating women?
It’s OK—even encouraged!—to ask a therapist directly whether and how often they have treated women in the past, or whether they have treated women dealing with the client’s most prominent concern(s). Competent therapists will be happy to share their educational background, preferred treatment modalities, and prior client experience to help an individual find the therapist best suited to their needs.
