Addiction therapists & psychiatrists in Orem, UT

I am currently accepting new clients. I’m so glad you’re here. Taking the first step toward therapy can feel overwhelming, and my goal is to offer a warm, nonjudgmental space where you feel truly heard, respected, and understood. I work with adolescents, adults, couples, and families navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, PTSD, ADHD, relationship challenges, grief, life transitions, stress, self-esteem, and family conflict. Whatever you’re carrying, I would be honored to walk alongside you on your journey toward healing and growth.

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) and the owner of Night Owl Wellness. I hold a master's degree from the University of Utah.

I work with a wide range of adult populations, including LGBTQIA+ individuals, veterans, sexual trauma survivors, those with addiction, people with Autism/ADHD, and survivors of religious trauma. My personal and professional understanding of trauma's complex impact is what drives my passion for this work.

My therapeutic training includes Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (TF-CBT), Solution-Focused Therapy (SFT), Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT), Eye-Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), and other eclectic and integrated interventions.

I provide a non Judgmental, positive environment for all populations I serve. I have a no nonsense, direct approach to therapy.

I'm a Utah native who studied at the University of Utah in Pesychology and Clinical Mental Health Counseling. I've worked primarily in substance abuse and addiction, which includes depression, anxiety, family issues, and communication - all the things that come with it. In my 11 years or practice, I've picked up a lot along the way.

When contemplating “resiliency,” I am reminded of the wisdom shared by Thich Nhat Hanh in his quote, “No Mud, No Lotus.” This succinctly encapsulates life’s challenges and the accompanying suffering. While we often yearn for happiness devoid of difficulties, I firmly believe that these struggles are indispensable for our overall well-being, akin to the lotus requiring mud to flourish.

My role involves helping clients recognize their potential to bloom into something remarkable, even amidst adversity when the path seems obscured. Through the integration of mindfulness, self-compassion, and trauma-informed methodologies, I facilitate a journey where clients unearth their inherent strengths and resilience, fostering transformative growth from within.

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.

I am a graduate of the University of Southern California with a Masters in Clinical Social Work, and received my Bachelor of Arts in Psychology from the University of California, Los Angeles. I am also a certified 200 HR yoga instructor and Reiki practitioner.

I am also currently completing my PhD in Integral and Transpersonal Psychology at the California Institute of Integral Studies.

I primarily work with survivors of domestic violence, sexual assault, and those navigating PTSD and other trauma related diagnoses.
