I believe that everyone can benefit from therapy. The ability to talk to an objective and supportive person who isn’t attached to your everyday life has value because they can help guide you through your life and offer perspective in areas that maybe weren’t clear to you. Seeking help from therapy is like getting help with your broken car. Sure you could probably watch a YouTube video on how to fix the car, but why not take it to an expert who is trained on how to fix cars. The same thing goes for mental health. Life has so many ups and downs, so why not seek help from someone who is trained to help people navigate that journey.

I am a trauma informed therapist integrating talk therapy, EMDR, IFS, DBT, CBT, structural dissociative model, art therapy and MI.
Life brings unexpected challenges and traumas—some brief, others long-lasting. In the midst of this, we often lose touch with our inner voice, neglect our needs, and begin to believe negative core beliefs. This can lead to cycles of anxiety, depression, and difficulty in relationships and daily life. Together, we’ll work to break these patterns, heal from trauma, and reconnect with your true self. My goal is to help you rediscover your inner serenity, strengthen your self-awareness, and build the tools needed for lasting growth and change.

Life can be challenging. At times we may feel lost or disconnected from the things and people that we love. We may find ourselves lacking the joy we once had. Whether the struggle be due to mental health, grief or even changing relationships, I believe with time and putting a focus on the things you need, everyone can live a fuller life. As a counselor I enjoy walking alone side my clients as they learn new skills, gain new insights, and realign their focus to get through lifes challenges. I work hard to help find and explore this path for each of my clients.

I believe that as we set goals, it's important to celebrate the small success stories along your path. As we develop our thoughts, feelings, and behaviors across our lives we question if they feel disruptive or wrong. We all face difficulties with barriers and stressors as we navigate life's complex systems but too often, we dismiss those feelings and struggle on. Taking an active approach is how we process our circumstances and gain back control for personal self-care, growth or happiness. By taking time to reflect on our own needs, you can focus on living a healthier and more fulfilling life with the use of therapy.

I use EMDR and Cognitive Processing Therapy, two approaches built for trauma rather than adapted to it.
Some people come to me carrying something that happened. Others are managing a disability, a diagnosis, or a family that keeps missing each other. A lot of people arrive worn down by anxiety they can't explain, or by years of being told they weren't trying hard enough. I'm a licensed clinical social worker in Utah and I work with adults and families by video across the state. I've spent nearly ten years doing this, six of them with neurodivergent clients and their families. What I do is adjust the therapy to the person in front of me, instead of asking you to fit a format that hasn't worked before.

I use EMDR and IFS to go deeper than surface-level stuff and help you get to the bottom of what is going on.
You’ve been through more than most people realize. Maybe you’re constantly overthinking, feeling disconnected, or struggling to trust anyone. It can even be hard to trust yourself. You want to move forward, but it’s like part of you is still stuck in the past. You’re tired of pretending you’re okay when you’re not. And honestly, you just want to feel like the best version of yourself so you can move forward in your life.

You’re not looking for someone to just nod and ask how that makes you feel. You want real progress.

I help teens and adults move through difficult times- whether it’s navigating school, relationships, career changes, or just figuring out what’s next.

I use EMDR to support deeper healing from trauma and its scars.
If life has you feeling like Atlas bearing the weight of the sky or Sisyphus pushing a boulder up the mountain, you may have lost the purpose and peace that makes life meaningful. Battles and challenges of existence leave us with invisible weights and chains, stifling our voice, our will, and our inner power. I specialize in working with neurodivergency, caregivers, and women; those learning to unmask and embrace their truth, or those who are navigating overwhelming life transitions and identity shifts. Whatever your needs may be, therapy can be a space to rest, to rediscover your voice, and to remember who you are and once were.

EMDR Therapists
Who is EMDR for?
EMDR was initially developed as a treatment for individuals with Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), for whom memories of a deeply distressing experience can be inadvertently triggered by random everyday events. The procedure has since been applied in the treatment of many other conditions. For example, it is used by some therapists to treat anxiety disorders including panic and phobias, depression, dissociative disorders, eating disorders, obsessive-compulsive disorders, and some personality disorders. It is suitable for adolescents and adults.
Why do people need EMDR?
People need EMDR as a way to manage distressing memories that in some way hamper the ability to function in the present. The procedure is believed to target the way memories are stored in the brain. Evidence indicates that past disturbing experiences cause ongoing distress because they were not adequately processed, and when such memories are triggered in the present, they are accompanied by all the emotions, thoughts, and physical sensations as the initial experience.
What problems does EMDR treat?
First and foremost, EMDR is intended as a treatment for PTSD, to defuse distressing memories that intrude on and impair everyday functioning. It is also often used to help those who are subject to panic attacks, phobias, and other forms of anxiety. In addition, EMDR has been used to treat individuals with depression, eating disorders, and personality disorders.
What happens in EMDR therapy?
First the therapist takes an individual’s history, and then the therapist and client decide which distressing experience(s) will be the target(s) of the exercise, delivered via a side-to-side visual stimulus requiring lateral eye movements. The client will be asked to activate thoughts, feelings, and any body sensations related to the troubling experience. The eye movements are said to reduce the emotional charge of the memory, so that the experience can then be safely discussed with the therapist and digested, minimizing its ability to trigger anxiety.
