I love bringing clarity and vision to my clients and giving them the tools they need to be successful long after we're through. I'm dedicated, warm, compassionate, and always looking for more resources to share. I genuinely believe my clients are the experts on their own life and working together, we'll build an individual treatment plan that includes a tailored approach, timetable, and clear objectives. I believe everyone can benefit from talking with a counselor and want everyone to have access to quality and timely services. If you're ready to make some changes in your life, I'd love to help you on your journey. Please note I am generally available Tuesdays and Wednesdays from 9:30-3 MDT for these appointments. If that does not work with your schedule, we may need to get you matched with another therapist. I did my Undergraduate studies at Brigham Young University and received my Master's in Social Work at the University of Utah. I have worked as a Mental Health Therapist for 5 years and am proud to also have a Coaching certification and be EMDR trained. I have 3 children and we enjoy exploring the beauty and variety of the West!

Invest in yourself. You are worth it! It is not about being connected. It is about feeling connected. I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in Texas, Iowa, Colorado and Utah. I currently reside in Texas. I received a Master of Science in Social Work at The University of Texas at Arlington in 2014. My undergraduate degree is in Applied Gerontology. My professional experience includes inpatient psychiatric treatment and emergency departments working with adults from age 18-95. I have engaged clients in Cognitive behavioral Therapy, Reminiscent Therapy and Solution Focused Therapy among other therapeutic modalities. Working to manage depression, anxiety, addiction, substance use/abuse, grief and/or suicidal ideation is my passion. I have motivated individuals, couples and families to engage in change. My goal is assisting people remain in the community and not become hospitalized. Together we can make that happen! There is no problem that does not have a solution. There are always options. I have an extensive "toolbox" and will encourage you to build one as well. I am genuine and that will be evident the first time we meet. Allow me to help put 'life' back into living with a new perspective. I do not provide faith based therapy nor prayer in session. If this is the type of therapy you are looking for, I will not be a good fit and recommend seeking someone with a seminary background. Thank you very much. I care. Let's talk!

I am an Licensed Clinical Social Worker with 30 years of experience working with individuals, couples and children from all walks of life and from across the country. My approach to therapy is client-centered, trauma informed and strengths based. I believe that family is the first "cell of society" and want to assist individual and couples struggling with communication issues or other barriers to change. I offer every client a short presentation on basic human brain development which takes a cognitive/physical/emotional look at their specific experiences and provides a foundation on which to move forward. I believe that a strong supportive relationship between client(s) and therapist is essential in creating trust and safety in the therapeutic process, so I will actively listen to you and allow you to feel validated and heard. With years of experience working with individuals, couples and families, I believe I can help you build your interpersonal relationships and discover your true value and strengths, through the therapeutic process!
