Great to meet you!

I work with teens and adults across Utah who are carrying the weight of trauma, PTSD, dissociation, anxiety, depression, relationship pain, and identity-related stress. Many of my clients come in feeling overwhelmed, disconnected from themselves, or unsure how to move forward after difficult or confusing experiences. I offer a grounded, affirming space where we can slow things down, make sense of what you’ve been through, and begin building safety, stability, and self-understanding together using EMDR, IFS, DBT, and trauma-focused approaches.

My approach to therapy

I specialize in helping clients work through trauma, PTSD, dissociation, and complex emotional and relational experiences. Using EMDR, IFS, DBT, and TF-CBT, we focus on reducing distress, increasing emotional regulation, and helping you feel more connected and steady in your life.

What you can expect from me

If you're feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or carrying things you’ve had to hold alone for a long time, you don’t have to figure it out by yourself. Therapy with me is a collaborative, steady space where we can work at your pace toward relief, clarity, and healing.
