Great to meet you!

Graduate education, clinical experience, collegial projects and research, and most importantly, my clients of 30 years have brought me to the expertise and capacity to support you. After a career in education and communication, my path led to a Masters in psychotherapy, and a group practice in Seattle, while supporting residential programs throughout Utah.

My approach to therapy

What does support look like for you today? Naming the stress, the difficulty, the imbalance, the pain, the frustration-that's how I like to begin our conversation. Enter the safe and private space in our therapy together, and we will find the courage to feel, hold, and explore the problems. We might even chop, stir, provoke, and push the problem and find what is beneath it, and certainly finish our session knowing what you want to work on in our next meeting.

What you can expect from me

Mental health is an action in the therapy hour, and I encourage you to share the top 3 things that need attention in your life-and we go from there. Overwhelming, sad, angry, shame or frustration, let's look at what you are carrying.
