Working with Individuals, Couples, and Families
I recognize your efforts and desire to obtain happiness and healing in your life and relationships and I am so happy that you are here.
To help you, I strive to create an environment where you can feel safe to go to your hurt places and navigate your healing processes, whether as an individual, couple, or family seeking therapy. I know this can be difficult, so I work hard to be there with you in the process to help you experience real changes in your life and relationships.
I am especially passionate about providing therapy to couples and families and have received advanced trainings in both Emotion Focused Therapy for Couples (EFT) and Attachment Based Family Therapy, both of which heavily influence my work with individuals as well. I believe that no single person, couple, or family is the same, and as such, I try to see the uniqueness in all the people I work with. This includes, but is not limited to, your significant cultures, religious beliefs and practices, couple and family structures, life and relationship experiences, and individual personality traits. I try to see the whole you, the whole picture. I provide all my services in English and Spanish.
Personal History
I grew up in and love Cache Valley! I have been married for seven years and have one amazing kiddo. I enjoy spending time with my family, mountain biking, hiking, drumming, and reading a good book. When possible, I enjoy traveling to new places across the U.S. or the world where I can explore new cultures and food.
