A little about me 

I believe therapy is a powerful tool for gaining clarity on your identity, pursuing dreams, and tackling life's challenges.

If you're someone overwhelmed by the unexpected hiccups of life, I would be honored to help you rediscover confidence and identity. I work with adults stressed by anxiety, depression, grief, faith transitions or other assorted challenges. I also have experience as a teacher, working with adolescents struggling with ADHD, disorganization and developmental issues.

Life's journey entails growth and change, with unforeseen challenges sometimes throwing us off balance. Seeking support is vital at these moments. As a therapist, I would be honored to walk with you on a path towards healing.

My approach involves coming alongside you in a caring, safe, and supportive environment. I utilize modalities such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Solution-Focused Therapy, and a person-centered therapeutic approach. Additionally, I am certified in Level One Gottman Method Couples Therapy, actively pursuing a trauma certificate from George Fox University, and learning Restoration Therapy.

I am currently completing my Master’s Degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from George Fox University, but also hold a Master’s of Teaching Degree from Lewis and Clark College and a Bachelor of Arts in Communications from Brigham Young University.

Beyond my professional life, I find joy in spending time with family, walking my dog, embracing the outdoors, continuous learning, staying active through exercise, and even navigating the challenges of gluten-free baking (a journey that began after being a Pillsbury Bake-off Finalist in 2012). Life is a series of challenges and triumphs, and I am here to support you every step of the way.
