Therapist

I specialize in working with adults who are navigating anxiety, ADHD, depression, grief, trauma, panic disorders, relationship challenges, and the particular weight that comes with being a woman managing too much at once. I'm a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor (LCMHC) based in Utah, and I offer all sessions via telehealth — so wherever you are in the state, you can access consistent, quality care without rearranging your whole schedule. I bring a wide range of evidence-based tools to every session, including CBT, DBT, trauma-focused CBT, Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT), Narrative Therapy, SFBT, REBT, Gestalt, and Motivational Interviewing. That breadth matters because no two people struggle the same way — my job is to find the right fit for you, not apply a one-size approach.

Therapist

Virtual • Utah


Every person experiences seasons of life that can feel overwhelming. Whether you're facing anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship challenges, substance use, grief, or major life transitions, my goal is to provide a safe, collaborative, and evidence-based therapeutic experience where meaningful, lasting change can occur.

For nearly two decades, I have had the privilege of serving individuals, couples, and families throughout Nevada as a Licensed Clinical Social Worker. In addition to direct clinical practice, I have served as a Clinical Director, executive leader, clinical supervisor, consultant, educator, and program developer, helping develop innovative behavioral healthcare programs and clinical services across Nevada. These diverse experiences have allowed me to work with individuals from virtually every walk of life while treating a broad range of complex behavioral health concerns.

My approach is individualized, practical, and grounded in research-supported treatment. I integrate evidence-based therapies, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Motivational Interviewing, trauma-informed care, and person-centered therapy to develop treatment plans tailored to each client's unique strengths, needs, and goals.

I believe people are far more than the challenges that bring them to therapy. My commitment is to provide compassionate, clinically excellent care while helping clients build resilience, strengthen relationships, overcome obstacles, and create healthier, more meaningful lives.

You’ve spent years protecting everyone else—your children, your partner, your household, and your career. It’s time to build a life you don’t have to constantly try to escape from. Real strength isn’t enduring a toxic cycle or silently surrendering your happiness; real strength is choosing the blueprint for your next chapter. If you are a dedicated father or mother quietly burning out to keep a fragile family dynamic intact, or a parent enduring the crushing grief of child estrangement, you do not have to carry this heavy isolation alone anymore.

For years, you may have believed that self-sacrifice was the ultimate proof of love. Society tells fathers to suppress their pain and keep producing, while telling mothers to give until they have nothing left. But holding everything together behind closed doors comes at a steep price. You end up feeling like an outsider in your own home, exhausted by the relentless pressure, or operating on autopilot. That persistent weight in your chest isn't a failure—it is your original self reminding you that protecting your family shouldn't require destroying your own mental health.

Clients who work with me quickly realize that I am not a passive therapist who sits in silence and nods. As a published author and clinician, I am a grounded, empathetic, and direct partner who deeply respects your time and intelligence. My practice is built around structured, real-world solutions rather than endless, circular processing. I bring warmth, clinical expertise, and enough practical humor into the room to immediately take the edge off the stress you've been carrying.

By taking this step to reclaim your emotional stability, identity, and personal peace, you aren't being selfish—you are becoming the steady, grounded leader and parent your family actually needs. Reaching out is often the hardest part, but you have already taken the first step. Let's begin rebuilding your peace today.
