Are you easily overwhelmed or overstimulated by things others seem to handle with ease? Do you question who you are or what you want in life? Do you often feel misunderstood? Are relationships a struggle? If these questions resonate, you’re in the right place! I support clients navigating these very same things, along with depression, low self-esteem, trauma manifestations (PTSD/C-PTSD), suicidal ideation, anger/emotion regulation difficulties, life transitions and faith-related challenges. I find a special connection with clients who identify as "highly sensitive" or HSPs - an innate temperament found in 15-30% of the population. Dr. Elaine Aron uses the acronym DOES to summarize the trait: Depth of Processing, Overstimulation, Emotional Responsiveness/Empathy, and Sensitivity to Subtleties/Sensory Stimuli. If you're curious if you might be an HSP, reach out for a free self-test!

About me: I hold a master’s degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling and Dance/Movement Therapy from Lesley University in Cambridge, MA (2021). Following grad school, I moved to Kansas City, MO, where I worked in community mental health as a crisis counselor and youth ATOD prevention specialist. I then found my passion working as a therapist in group private practice, serving individuals, couples, and families. In 2025, I moved to St. George, UT, where I continued in private practice and attained full licensure as a CMHC. In 2026, I joined Headway to widen my reach and offer accessible mental healthcare to more amazing individuals!

Therapy with me is collaborative and moves at a pace that feels right for your unique nervous system. I draw from an eclectic toolbox of therapeutic approaches, with a focus on somatic therapies, IFS (parts/inner child work), ACT, Brainspotting and expressive arts techniques. The nonverbal approaches I have in my toolbox are especially helpful for clients who find talking overwhelming or simply not enough on its own. Brainspotting, for example, offers a gentle, nonverbal pathway to process C-PTSD and complex symptoms.

From the first session you can expect warmth, validation and renewed hope! My clients describe me as down-to-earth and easy to talk to, bringing authenticity and humor into sessions.

Starting therapy can feel scary, so I applaud your courage to take the step! You don’t have to know where to begin or have the perfect words. When you’re ready to explore what it would look like to have a space to slow down, feel understood (perhaps for the first time!), and reconnect with yourself through deeper healing, I'd love to hear from you!
