As a secular psychologist with 10+ years of experience, I support busy adults through professional stress, faith transitions (e.g., from Mormonism, which I was part of), and relationship issues and trauma.
You've worked hard to build your life, yet you know something needs to change. You might feel burnt out from constant stress, anxiety might have become unmanageable, or your beliefs have shifted so much that your whole world feels upside down. If so, now might be the time to reach out to a therapist who can help you navigate these challenges, rediscover yourself, and find balance & fulfillment. I work with action oriented people ready to break old patterns and build a more fulfilling life. Together, we’ll develop practical solutions to help you move forward. Booking a counseling session now might be the best decision you make.

Feeling the weight of trauma, addiction, or a faith transition? Whether you are navigating religious deconstruction, managing PTSD, or breaking addictive cycles, you don't have to carry it alone. I provide a safe, direct, and collaborative space to share your truth without judgment, while being both supported and challenged. Alongside talk therapy, I offer neurofeedback—a non-invasive approach that addresses the underlying brain dysregulation common to many mental health challenges by retraining neural pathways to shift away from automatic stress, mood, or behavioral loops. Together, let's build a resilient path forward.

The relationships that are most important often cause us the most pain. My work focuses on helping clients better understand themselves and strengthen their most important relationships. We explore how patterns developed, why certain triggers feel so intense, and how to respond differently without abandoning yourself in the process. I specialize in working with couples and families of adults (including those navigating the pain and complexity of estrangement). I also work with individuals needing guidance as they move through major life transitions with clarity and confidence.

Life has taught me that healing is not linear—and that resilience is often born from the most painful places. As a certified EMDR clinician, I specialize in helping individuals (13+) navigate relationship challenges, anxiety, depression, grief, and the complex effects of trauma. My work is grounded in professional training and lived experience. I grew up in a family shaped by alcoholism, abuse, and profound loss. These early experiences left me grappling with symptoms rooted in trauma, including a lifelong battle to prove my value. My healing journey deeply informs the compassionate, nonjudgmental space I offer my clients.

Secular and Non-Religious Therapists
What is a secular and non religious approach in therapy?
Secular or non-religious therapy is a theoretical orientation used by many therapists and describes a therapeutic approach that does not rely on any specific religious or faith-based beliefs in the therapeutic process. Secular counselors will often approach therapy with an emphasis on evidence-based practices, such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) or Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to help clients, instead of relying on religious practices, such as prayer or belief in God.

Is secular therapy primarily for non-religious people?
Both religious and non-religious individuals can benefit from secular therapy. People exploring their religious or spiritual beliefs may find it especially useful to work with a secular therapist who is unbiased toward any specific religion. While religious individuals might value the connection and familiarity of seeing a counselor who shares their beliefs, secular counseling can offer them the chance to develop coping skills independent of their religious practice, which can be beneficial in various aspects of their lives.

Can a secular approach to therapy help with religious trauma?
One major reason clients may seek a secular therapist is to process previous religious experiences, including religious trauma. Secular therapists can help clients manage symptoms of the trauma through practices such as Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) therapy or Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT). They can also encourage clients through talk therapy or psychodynamic approaches to explore the roots of their religious trauma. Since secular therapists do not have any predetermined religious beliefs, they can be particularly helpful for clients looking to explore their own religious beliefs following a history of religious trauma.

What does non religious marriage and premarital counseling involve?
Marriage and premarital counseling typically involves a couple meeting with a therapist to discuss topics such as planning for marriage, navigating a new marriage, addressing relationship challenges, and developing better communication and conflict resolution skills. Non-religious therapists assist couples in achieving these goals without adhering to specific religious beliefs or frameworks, often emphasizing inclusivity and non-judgment, especially for "nontraditional" couples. However, seeking couples therapy from a non-religious counselor does not mean religious topics are off-limits. In fact, non-religious couples from different religious backgrounds may benefit from a secular therapist who remains neutral toward the beliefs of each partner.
