I am an LCSW. I am a trauma and neurodivergent-informed therapist that specializes in EMDR and DBT. I am good at building relationships with clients and helping them feel safe. I use humor and direct communication to overcome barriers with clients. I use things like art, culture, media, etc. to reach clients where they are at. I am non-binary and work on LGBT issues with clients. I am also a person of color, so I work with cultural trauma.

Therapist

Virtual • Riverton, UT


As a Marriage and Family Therapist, I work with individuals, couples, and families—regardless of sexual orientation—who are seeking deeper connection, healing, and clarity. Many people feel stuck in patterns of conflict, disconnection, or self-doubt and want to build healthier relationships, understand themselves better, and feel empowered in their journey. Together, we create a safe, affirming space to explore pain and possibility. I believe change is possible, and every person has the strength within them to grow, connect, and thrive.
