Great to meet you!

Hello and welcome. I have been a licensed therapist for over 12 years and have enjoyed running my on-line private practice for individuals in both Idaho and Montana. I love helping people heal from past traumas and/or reduce present day distress, such as anxiety, anger, low self-esteem and relational problems. Our time together will focus on your goals and needs and at a pace you feel comfortable with.

My approach to therapy

I have come to learn that many of our present day issues stem from past experiences, old messaging, difficult relationships and trauma. These stay within our nervous systems and cause physical and emotional distress, often times without even realizing why. They can create negative beliefs about oneself, such as, "I'm not good enough," "I am not safe," "I am unlovable," and so on. These beliefs may feel true, but that doesn't mean that they are. Challenging/dismissing these beliefs can improve your wellbeing and help you move towards a happier and healthier life.

I specialize in Internal Family Systems (parts work) and EMDR in order to facilitate healing and growth.

What you can expect from me

When we first meet, we will get to know each other better and discuss your personal goals. Over time, you will begin to learn more about yourself, your patterns, what pains you and how to breakaway from what doesn't serve you anymore. I foster a safe and welcoming environment and look forward to working with you if you feel I am a good fit.
