I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker from Utah State University. I have experience working with children, teens, adults, couples, and families. I have worked in the child welfare system for 10 years, advocating for families and individuals by helping them improve their lives and reach their highest potential.
I strive to be warm, approachable, easy to talk to, and an excellent listener. I am not here to judge you. I am a mother of three children who are all grown up and I’ve experienced more than my fair share of life challenges. I don’t recommend any treatments or practices that I myself have not used.
I received my bachelor's in psychology from Utah State University and went on to get my Master of Social Work from the University of Utah. I specialize in treating OCD and Anxiety Disorders. I have worked in various locations including an intensive outpatient (IOP), middle school and private practice. I also have experience working with the aging population and the forensic population working toward competency restoration.
I am a compassionate and dedicated Licensed Clinical Social Worker with over two decades of experience across a wide range of therapeutic settings, including family, adolescent, individual, group, adult, outpatient, residential, and day programs. I help clients enhance their quality of life by using evidence-based therapeutic approaches, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy.
I believe in doing hard things—just not alone. With the right support, the game changes entirely. That’s why I bring Christian values into therapy—not as a rulebook, but as a foundation for becoming who you really want to be. So whether you're struggling with addiction, relationship issues, or life just not feeling as good as it used to, you don't have to figure it out by yourself. I'll be that support for you.

I have been described as a “down to earth” and “real” therapist. I like to believe these are accurate descriptors. I bring a plethora of experience to my therapy room; however, I recognize, acknowledge, and celebrate the client being the expert on their life. I provide a safe environment which allows my clients to be transparent without judgment. It takes a lot of courage to reach out for help and it is definitely a risk. We need to remember there is no growth without risk!
Are you struggling with anxiety, relationship, or addiction issues? I specialize in all three of those. With my 20 years of experience I can help you get the change and relief you are looking for. Most of my clients start to feel better within a couple of sessions. Therapy can be short or long term and I will work with you on a plan that works best for you and your needs. Some of my other experience includes, depression, mood disorders, couples/family issues, major life changes, grief, divorce, domestic violence, parenting, trauma, and adjustments to adult children.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Family Therapist in Salt Lake City
Finding family therapists in Salt Lake City starts with understanding what your family wants help addressing. Family therapy can support concerns like parenting conflict, adolescent struggles, blended family dynamics, and communication across generations. Family therapists are trained to work with the relational system, not only one person. As you compare therapists, look for listed experience with family systems, structural family therapy, parenting support, or adolescent concerns that match your needs.
Salt Lake City offers a range of local counseling options, with in-person offices across the city and virtual appointments that can make scheduling easier. Family therapy sessions may include the full family, certain family members, or one person at a time, depending on the goals and structure of care. Before booking, review each therapist’s bio for their approach, session format, availability, and whether they offer a free phone consultation. This can help you understand how they work with families before the first appointment.
Therapy in Salt Lake City can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs. Headway helps you find family therapists who are accepting new patients and offer upfront cost estimates after you enter your insurance details to confirm coverage. You can browse therapists, review bios, and book directly when you’re ready.
If anyone in your family is experiencing or worried about abuse, threats, or coercion, joint family or couples therapy usually isn't the right starting point — individual support is safer. The Childhelp National Child Abuse Hotline (1-800-422-4453) and National Domestic Violence Hotline (1-800-799-7233, or text START to 88788\) can help you think through next steps.
