AFCC Informed, Family Systems Therapist

I am honored to have been working in this field for 10+ years. I have worked with many people in the most dire of circumstances and been witness to them transforming their experiences into a life of purpose. I have worked extensively with individuals in crisis whether a recent or past event. I have specifically helped people that have been suicidal, suffer from trauma, have been involved in foster care, Division of Child & Family Services, residential treatment, the prison system and those struggling with personality disorders. I have additional experience in substance use and addiction treatment.

I received my Bachelors Degree in Sociology from the University of Utah and Masters Degree in Counseling/Mental Health Counseling from University of Phoenix. I went on to specialize and receive a certificate from the University of Utah Addictions Program in Addictions Counseling. I have a background working with children and teens using art and play therapy.

I enjoy working with people of all ages, backgrounds and experiences, having the privilege to help each person heal in their way. Working in this field inspires me daily and I see so many humans grow and learn from who they have been into who they can become. I will provide support, coping tools, a safe place and the therapy intervention needed in your journey.
