About me

I am licensed in Oklahoma, Oregon and Utah with 14 years of professional work experience in this field with 11 of those years as a licensed psychotherapist. My approach focuses heavily on emotional intelligence, self awareness and meeting you where you are now while looking to your history for insights and motivation. I have experience in helping clients with relationship issues, motivation, self esteem, confidence and behavioral activation. I also have experience working with compassion fatigue. I work with my clients to create an open and safe environment where thoughts and feelings can be shared without fear of judgment. Taking the first step to sign up for therapy can take courage and I am proud of you for getting started!
