It is not the load that breaks you, but the way you carry it. - C.S. Lewis: I am passionate about helping clients to overcome their past, and gain freedom from their chronic mental health problems through EMDR therapy. I provide eco-EMDR and nature-based therapy that meets the client where they are. My ultimate goal is to empower clients to live more adaptive and meaningful lives through an evidenced-based model of healing that involves movement (green exercise), nature, TF-EMDR, and addressing the body at the client's fitness level. I offer EMDR extended session in-office and outdoors in various locations in Wyoming and Utah.

Experienced. Professional. Caring. Safe. Confidential. Licensed since 1995. Offices in Park City, Salt Lake City, and Evanston. With an open, empathic, non-judgmental style, I work with people from all walks of life who are looking for healing, change, and growth. I have provided such help to many people for years, often to those who thought there was no help, or for whom previous treatment did not quite get to the root of the problem. Whether seeking help with every day concerns, life transitions, personal development, family and relationship issues, or longstanding complicated problems, you are welcome in my office.

My goal is to help you find the courage to be the agent of change in your life, and I will support you throughout the healing process. You might be seeking counseling because of anxiety, depression, grief, partnership difficulties, or trauma (recent or past). Personal addiction or the addiction of a loved one is another reason you might seek help. Let me support your sojourn toward wellness.

It’s all your fault. That’s what you tell yourself. “I’m broken, I’m unlovable, I’m a monster.” Like a mantra, you hammer these messages into your brain. Sometimes it feels like you’re in an abusive relationship with your own thoughts. You’re exhausted but don’t want to sleep. The nightmares are that bad. The sound of a stranger’s voice can trigger you. A familiar scent can trigger you. And when you get triggered, you’re not just in a bad mood for a couple hours. You get taken down for days. It’s affecting your relationships, work, and friendships. No matter what you do, anger, anxiety, and depression persist. You just want peace.

Are you struggling with understanding why your emotions are so extreme or how your anxiety is controlling your life? Are you seeing yourself partaking in risky behaviors and do not understand why certain situations are happening to you? Have you notice your using an addiction to manage your mood, sleep, or other stressful situation in your life? Are you struggling with communication in your relationship and being assertive. These types of concerns can stem from many different situations that have occurred in your life and we can work through them and build your goals to help you live a more production and fulfilling life for you.

My motto for my practice is, “thrive, not just survive.” Many of us, and at varying times in life, do the latter. We simply just try and survive. We think, “if I can just make it past____, things will get better” or “if ____ happens, I will feel happier.” We think this over and over, and eventually realize that we doing just that- simply surviving. I want to help you and/or your loved ones THRIVE. I believe that we are here to do more than just “get by.”
