About

---

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker  (LCSW), and I have nearly a decade of experience providing mental health  services to individuals with a range of life experiences. This includes individual psychotherapy with teens, adults, and couples as well as working at a private residential treatment program in the mountains of Utah, working as a team member on a substance use and PTSD veteran inpatient unit, and providing case management care and therapy for rural Utah veterans for the Department of Veterans Affairs.

A big part of beneficial and effective therapy is the relationship between the therapist and the client. We will work together to identify concerns you have in life and find effective strategies to help you move forward towards growth and change. You are the expert of your own life, and I get the privilege of walking this path with you as you discover, understand, change or accept in a way that is best for you, and starting wherever you are. My practice is trauma-informed and attachment-focused using evidence-based techniques such as Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT), Skills Training in Affective and Interpersonal Regulation (STAIR), and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)

I received my Master's degree in Social Work from the  University of Utah and my Bachelor's degree in Behavioral Science with an emphasis in Family Studies at Utah Valley University. I continue  to invest in opportunities for professional growth and regularly  participate in consultation, continuing education, and training  opportunities. I also stay connected with other professionals in my field.
