My Ideal Client

As a therapist, I am warm, calming, and funny—but I can push you when needed! I have a passion for helping people rediscover who they are, how they want to live, and what they value. I am very passionate about helping people overcome some of the very difficulties I have struggled with. I know from personal experience how it feels to be living life on autopilot, a life that doesn't feel like yours. That being said, I will meet you where you are, because I know that is what you need right now!

What I Specialize In

I have 7 years of experience in trauma-informed care. I have specialized training in treating religious trauma, Technology/Internet addiction, and have trained to be IFS-informed. I am excited to start incorporating Somatic approaches into my work, and I'll be trained in Deep Brain Reorienting this coming January. I have worked with many clients who struggle with trauma, ADHD, depression, and anxiety. If you feel lost, paralyzed, or overwhelmed, I may be the right fit to help you move toward your new life. You deserve to reclaim your values, your culture, your body, and your mind. I know that sounds like a lot (I’m on the same journey), but you can get there! Reach out if you think I may be the right fit!

Why I am a Good Fit for You

I have lived through similar struggles with which I help others. I grew up in the Mormon religion and I know how massive of an impact a high-control environment can have on your mental health. I personally know how trauma can impact your entire identity, your nervous system, and your beliefs about others, yourself, and the world. I know how hard it is to be neurodivergent in this neurotypical world. I know what it is like to lose control of your relationship with technology and suffer big consequences. I know what it feels like to be lost, overwhelmed, torn apart, insecure, and afraid. I also know how empowering healing and growth have been for me. I want to help guide you to find your own healing and growth! I believe that therapy is inherently political. As I learn and grow I apply what I learn from intersectional feminism and anti-racism to my work with you. I am LGBTQIA+ friendly. I take a liberation psychology approach to therapy and acknowledge how systems of power impact us all.

Techniques I Use

Issues I Treat

Specialties

  • ADHD External link

    As someone with ADHD I know how unsupported some can go in therapy. I am continuing to train in supporting people with ADHD and using concrete systems and skills to make life more manageable. I help address shame cycles and crash-and-burn cycles that seem inescapable. I want to help you work with your neurodivergence, not against it.

  • PTSD External link

    I have 7 years of experience in supporting people with trauma. I have personal lived experience with trauma and am very passionate about helping people through it. I have trained to be IFS-informed to help with trauma. I will be trained in a somatic modality called Deep Brain Reorienting in January.

  • Historical Trauma External link

    I have been trained in addressing religious deconstruction, faith transitions, and religious trauma. I have also lived through that myself. I will support you in building self-trust, agency, exploring values, identity, and helping you find a life you authentically want to live.

  • Internet Addiction External link

    I have training in online behavioral addictions. I have supported a variety of people in reducing their time video games, smartphones, pornography, and AI. I strive to help you create a healthy relationship with technology and spend more time doing what you value most.
