None of us are immune to pain in life. We all have difficult thoughts, feelings, experiences, and relationships. Sometimes we get stuck in these difficulties. Maybe life circumstances have left us depleted from prolonged stress, maybe we unconsciously picked up harmful beliefs about ourselves, maybe we were never taught helpful coping strategies or relationship skills, or maybe we’ve been hurt by others. While we might get stuck, we don’t have to stay that way. Working with a therapist can be an incredible and powerful experience that helps you get unstuck so you can create the life and relationships you’re seeking.

Asking for help is tough whether it is for you or someone you love, but it can be worth it. I have been a therapist for over 10 + years, and hope I can help you find some relief. I specialize in all types of traumas both “Little t” and “Big T” traumas (i.e. family or origins, bullying, chronic health, divorce, adjustment issues, life change, to all types of abuse and harm), PTSD, depression, addiction, and anxiety. I work with individuals, families, couples, the LGTBQIA+ community, first responders/military, and ages 4-76+ years old. As your therapist, therapy, we can do worth together to grow and heal.

I have experience working with young children, pre-teens, teens, young adults, couples, parents, and adults. Each phase of life has its own nuances, and I love to walk alongside my clients as they navigate the difficult and unexpected circumstances that can occur.

I have also been trained in EMDR and have experience working with both complex trauma and single incident traumas.

Finding the right therapist is a deeply personal journey, one that requires trust, empathy, and compatibility. Embarking on the journey of seeking therapy takes immense courage and vulnerability. It's a testament to your strength and resilience that you've recognized the need for support and are taking proactive steps towards healing. I understand that reaching out for help can feel daunting, but please know that you're not alone on this path. In therapy, you'll find a compassionate and nonjudgmental space where you can freely express your thoughts, feelings, and struggles. It's a place where you're heard, understood, and validated.

I understand how beginning therapy for the first time or re-entering therapy can be a stressful experience. Finding a qualified therapist is important, but you also want to find a therapist you connect with personally and who you can trust with your thoughts and feelings. My education gives me the qualifications, but my life experience provides the connection and empathy needed to guide or support you as we explore together the challenges that brought you to therapy and how to overcome them.

Life includes unique and meaningful journeys for each of us. During that journey, we all face wounds that require healing and mending. As a therapist, I would be honored to be a part of the healing journey for you and your loved ones. My goal is to provide a collaborative, supportive, and understanding environment focused on your growth, development, and recovery. I approach therapy with a respect for the importance of care in multiple life areas: biological, psychological, relational, and spiritual. I seek to provide healing with respect to the many unique identities and experiences that we each hold in our lives.

Most of us have the ability and desire to change, but we need help discovering exactly how. Despite our best efforts, we often feel frustrated and in pain from the impact of experiences we don’t fully understand. I use a dynamic yet evidence-based approach to mental healthcare focused on identifying and realigning a person’s beliefs, thoughts, and behaviors. Retain what makes you significant, and support yourself with a more accurate sense of perception and the accompanying skills required to implement. I’m genuinely grateful to be doing my dream job. I have a deep affection for people and would be honored to work with you.

Therapy can be intimidating - you may be going through the hardest time of your life and struggling to know who you can talk to as you go through this process. Rest assured, you are not alone and help is available to and within you. Working together, I hope to bring back the parts of you that may feel a little lost but were once full of hope, joy, and peace. My therapeutic style is collaborative and tailored to each of my clients to meet their specific needs whether you are currently going through tribulations or dealing with the aftermath of a big life change.

I’ve worked as a social worker with individuals and families in Utah for many years, and I feel honored to have been invited into people’s stories to be a participant in their healing and growth. As we live our lives, we’re presented with unexpected situations that can be overwhelming. Difficulties come from conditions in our bodies, sometimes from our relationships, and sometimes from our life circumstances. My clinical training and professional experience, and my own life challenges have taught me to enjoy each individual as a uniquely incredible human with boundless potential to overcome adversity and thrive.

I love being able to help clients with high levels of anxiety, depression, trauma, and relationship difficulties. I also have several years of experience working with adolescents with high functioning autism and some other developmental delays. If you want to overcome some of the areas in your life that you feel are holding back, then we will work together to find different approaches that can lead to better outcomes.

Tired, Sad, Hurting, Unheard, and Overwhelmed. These are just a few words that many people are feeling at this exact moment. The pain of any one of these words alone can be demoralizing by itself. As a person who has overcome my own mental health issues, I feel I bring an unmatched level of compassion, grace, and guanine care into every session. Let's work together to find you the peace, healing, and connection you unconditionally deserve. By no means will it be easy but as the saying goes "nothing worth doing is easy" and the time has come to recognize that you are worth the effort.

I believe in the power of healing and growth through connection and self-discovery. In my practice, I work with people of all ages to help them find their inner peace and happiness. I also believe in the importance of balance and slowing down to fully enjoy the human experience. Life can be hectic and overwhelming at times, but taking a step back to breathe and appreciate the present moment can make all the difference. Together, we can work towards finding that balance and creating a brighter future.

Life is hard, but it is not hopeless. There are many circumstances we would not choose to be part of our lives. These circumstances may even limit our choices. I have learned that it doesn't really matter if these limiting circumstances were brought on by yourself or others, if they were intentional or unintentional consequences of past or present behaviors, or if they are randomly introduced. Regardless, they are absolutely frustrating, painful, and time consuming. I am honored to work with individuals and families who are seeking professional support in these times.

In the Disney Movie, The Lion King, Rafiki the wise monkey says, “Oh yes, the past can hurt. But the way I see it, you can either run from it or learn from it.” Being an avid Harry Potter, Disney fan has taught me a lot of things in my life. I have been a therapist for over 10 + years. I specialize in all types of traumas (i.e. family or origins, bullying, chronic health, divorce, adjustment issues, life change, grief, to all types of abuse and harm), depression, addiction, and anxiety. I work with individuals, families, couples, the LGTBQIA+ community, first responders/military, and ages 6-96+.

I am a therapist because I believe everyone deserves to be truly seen, heard, and healed. Life might have taught you that you are unworthy, incapable, or unable to experience peace. I hope to guide you through your journey of healing and growth. I believe that the resources you need to find that peace and healing are inside of you–after all, you know yourself and your needs better than anyone. It can be hard to ask for help and be vulnerable with a stranger. I do my best to cultivate an environment where you feel safe to share not only your struggles, but also your joys and laughter.
