How I Can Help

I currently offer therapy sessions only for individuals, couples, and families located in Utah. All clinical services are provided under the supervision and support of Life Changes Counseling.

Individuals

My style is person-first, compassion-forward, and rooted in collaboration. Together, we’ll examine the old stories you’re carrying—about who you are, what you deserve, the world around you, and what’s possible—so we can begin to separate fact from fiction.

Therapy with me is about right-sizing the big stuff. Many of us live behind a foggy lens—one clouded by shame, fear, trauma, or beliefs we didn’t even choose. That lens can quietly dictate our lives, keeping us small and disconnected. My job is to help you clear off the lens and see what’s in front of you—not what was, or what you fear might be, but what is.

I work with people simply trying to get unstuck. I don’t believe in one-size-fits-all treatment, and I definitely don’t believe you need to be “fixed.”

I approach relationship work with couples or families with that same lens. Struggles in these dynamics often stem from unspoken stories we carry about ourselves, each other, and what connection should look like. These stories are usually much older than the current relationship, shaped by past experiences, roles, and expectations.

In our work together, we’ll slow things down, untangle what’s true from what’s inherited, and explore how these narratives may distort connection. The goal isn’t to assign blame or decide who’s “right” or “wrong.” It’s to co-create relationships built on curiosity, clarity, honesty, and love—where everyone involved feels seen for who they are and who they’re becoming.
