Book a therapist or psychiatrist in Centerville, UT covered by United Healthcare

Hello and Welcome! I began my LCSW career as a therapist at the University Neuropsychiatric Institute (now Huntsman Mental Health Institute, or HMHI) and several Employee Assistant Programs (EAP’s) before opening my own private practice.

With a strong foundation in diagnosing and treating acute mental illnesses, I now focus primarily on helping clients facing less severe but impactful mental health issues. My areas of specialization include depression, anxiety, trauma, self-esteem, relationship challenges, anger management, and childhood-related problems and primarily work with adults and older adolescents.

Though it may not be immediately visible, I bring extensive experience working with diverse populations, including LGBTQIA+, BIPOC, neurodivergent (ND), and neurotypical (NT) individuals. I openly invite questions and conversations around these topics, emphasizing my inclusive and affirming approach.

Beyond my clinical work, I am passionate about the outdoors and enjoy Utah’s rich natural offerings, including hiking, camping, scuba diving, skiing, sailing, and climbing. A dedicated traveler, I’ve visited approximately 75 countries, with extended stays in the majority of them. My extroverted nature fuels a deep curiosity about people and their unique life experiences.

​My practice is not a social hour or "paid friendship"; it is a surgical intervention for the soul. I deliver my strongest results for high-achieving professionals, most often cisgender women, in medical, legal, and niche service industries where performance and desirability are currency. You have mastered the art of becoming the "perfect provider" to survive male-dominated spaces, but you are starving behind the mask.

​Leveraging my background in Law (JD) alongside clinical mastery, I provide a formidable container of safety where you can finally drop the performance. I work best with high-acuity professionals tired of carrying the emotional load for everyone else. We don't dismantle your strength; we restore the authentic self hidden behind the armor. (Note: I do not accept "fix-it" referrals for unwilling partners. This space is for you.)

I’m a Clinical Mental Health Counselor who works with adults navigating trauma, addiction, anxiety, depression, and big life transitions. Many of the people I work with feel stuck, disconnected from themselves, or exhausted from carrying more than they ever should have had to. I bring a grounded, real-world approach to therapy that values honesty, self-trust, and meaningful change. My goal is to help you feel more at home in yourself—not just “functional,” but genuinely alive.

Hi! 🫶🏼 I specialize in complex trauma and neurodiversity

It is my honor to work alongside my clients to recover, move on from difficulties, and feel peace and integration. I love working with children and teens as well as adults!

Are you struggling with anxiety, relationship, or addiction issues? I specialize in all three of those. With my 20 years of experience I can help you get the change and relief you are looking for. Most of my clients start to feel better within a couple of sessions. Therapy can be short or long term and I will work with you on a plan that works best for you and your needs. Some of my other experience includes, depression, mood disorders, couples/family issues, major life changes, grief, divorce, domestic violence, parenting, trauma, and adjustments to adult children.

Accepting change and working on your personal growth can be challenging. Right now, you are taking the necessary steps to grow. I am excited to meet with you and discuss your needs and ways to achieve your therapeutic goals. I work together with clients to set goals that can help address their needs and inspire insight and growth. I have worked extensively with adolescents both individually and within their relationships with parents and peers.

I approach therapy as a collaborator. My method is client-centered and humanistic. I aim to accompany my clients in achieving the goals brought into the therapeutic environment with openness, empathy, and compassion. Creating goals in small steps is vital for progress and change. Identifying insecure attachment and dysfunctional patterns will lead to lasting change. My clients can learn to recognize unhealthy cycles and gain a deeper understanding of their attachment styles.

Currently, I do not provide therapy for couples or minors.
