Prenatal and postpartum therapists & psychiatrists in Flagstaff, AZ

I believe anyone can live a meaningful and fulfilling life and that we all can change and grow even in the most challenging times. For over twenty years, I have worked with Adults, Couples, Teens/Children, and families from a diverse population, helping clients change problematic behaviors and thinking patterns to achieve wellness and growth.

Healing isn't about fixing what's broken; it's about understanding how your mind and body adapted to survive and discovering new ways to thrive.

I'm a Licensed Professional Counselor in Arizona specializing in trauma, attachment, anxiety, depression, substance use, relationship patterns, and nervous system healing. I hold a Master's degree in Clinical Psychology and am currently completing my PhD in Transpersonal Psychology. My doctoral research explores the lived experience of healing developmental trauma through attachment repair, somatic integration, inner-child healing, and innate healing processes that support lasting transformation.

Many people come to therapy believing they're broken, when in reality they're living with nervous systems that adapted to survive difficult experiences. I believe healing begins by understanding those protective patterns with compassion and helping them soften so you can live with greater freedom, connection, and authenticity.

Whether you're navigating the effects of childhood trauma, painful relationships, chronic stress, grief, or recovery from substance use, therapy can help you understand the patterns that once protected you while creating new ones that support a more fulfilling life.

My approach is warm, collaborative, and grounded in both research and experience. I integrate Somatic Experiencing, attachment-based therapy, mindfulness, parts work, and evidence-informed trauma treatment to help clients move beyond insight into meaningful, embodied healing. My work focuses not only on understanding your story, but also on helping your nervous system experience safety, connection, and lasting change.

If you've always been the one holding everything together while quietly struggling on the inside, you don't have to do it alone. Together, we'll build greater resilience, self-compassion, healthier relationships, and a deeper connection with the person you want to become.

I believe that healing happens within the context of community and connection. My journey in social work began in 2015, and since then, I have had the privilege of walking alongside families and individuals in their most vulnerable moments. From my early days as a parent educator and working within child protective services to my recent years in community mental health, I have seen firsthand the incredible strength of the human spirit.
