Grief counselors and therapists in Utah

I have over 25 years experience working with young men and their families. I love digging in and helping clients find joy in life and increase their resilience.

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.

I'm a marriage and family therapist who loves to work with couples and families. I also do a lot of individual work with folks navigating grief and loss. I am trained in ART and use this tool to help clients work through trauma.
