I am a mental health counselor licensed in Utah with nearly 10 years of experience working with a wide variety of people. I have worked with clients with anxiety, depression, problems adjusting to changes in life, addictions, and more. My therapy style is interactive and cooperative. I work to help people move toward the values they have in their lives in spite of challenges that exist in life. I believe that people suffer when they are stuck in their thoughts and believe that they are powerless to make changes in their lives, and I work to help people see how to move forward. I work with people to help them get separated from the thoughts and feelings that keep them from moving toward the things they value and help them move toward a life with more meaning.

I am a passionate therapist who has been around the block once or twice. I have experience myself in everything I work on with my clients-depression, anxiety, addiction, life purpose, self-care to name a few. I graduated from one of the best social work programs at University of Southern California. This means that I have the education to back up my real world experience. I love working with and helping others through rough times, I will be there with you, 100%, we will get through this together. Working through your concerns through this Better Help platform is a great way for you to process through situations you are facing. As your therapist, I will use a variety of modalities. Typically, I use cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) and dialectical behavioral therapy (DBT). CBT focuses on your thoughts and how they influence your feelings/emotions and how those impact your behavior. DBT focuses on emotion regulation, mindfulness and distress tolerance. Messaging is asynchronous, meaning it's not done in real time. I respond to messages Monday through Friday. Live sessions are available too. Regarding scheduling, if you cannot find a time on my schedule that doesn’t fit with yours, just message me and I’ll find a time that works for you!

How does the cost of an in-person therapist compare to BetterHelp?

The average price of an in-person therapy session in the US with most therapists is $100 to $200 per hour.

  • With a psychiatrist: $150-$500
  • With therapists: $100-300
