Bipolar disorder therapists & psychiatrists in Sparks, NV

Before I became a therapist, I was a high school English teacher, a

college professor, and a yoga instructor. That path wasn't random

— each role taught me something different about how people

grow, get stuck, and find their way back to themselves. I bring all

of that into my practice now.

I work with adults across Nevada via telehealth who are wrestling

with anxiety, depression, people-pleasing patterns, trauma, and self-worth.

I'm also a Level II Reiki practitioner and E-RYT-500+ advanced yoga

teacher — which means I understand that healing isn't just

cognitive. The body is part of this too, and I take that seriously.
