About Me
Providing safety, relief, support and insight to my clients is something I am genuinely passionate about. I love helping clients recognize their strengths and provide a client centered approach to therapy. I have a gift for seeing the strengths in others and believe that within each of us lies the power to heal which is one reason I am so drawn to EMDR as a modality for growth and healing. I respect the spiritual aspects of my clients and make an effort to make clients feel safe in exploring their religious and/ or spiritual beliefs if they are inclined to do so. I have 5 adult children and 5 grandchildren who I adore. I have lived in Southern Utah for nearly two decades now and enjoy the wealth of outdoor activities in the area that I enjoy. As someone with an autoimmune disease myself, I have become increasingly passionate about the role nutrition can play in our physical and mental health and happy to share what I have learned with those who are interested, but never pushy with those who are not ;)
Education & Experience
I completed my Masters Degree in Psychology with an emphasis in Family Systems in 2005 from Capella University. I worked for many years as a therapist and clinical director in a residential treatment center for adolescent girls, working with the youth and their families addressing a lot of trauma, abuse, attachment issues and addiction. I have also worked in an EAP setting, in an agency setting and in private practice where I currently work full time, primarily with adults, couples and some adolescent clients. I enjoy helping clients with ADHD and have attended various trainings and read many books related to helping individuals with ADHD and their parents navigate the obstacles they often face. Anxiety disorders is another area I have spent much time increasing my knowledge and ability to help those who suffer. I recently completed a course on utilizing EMDR to assist those with chronic health conditions manage chronic pain and look forward to deepening my practice in this area.
