Compassionate, personalized therapy for teens, adults, and couples in Utah


When you’re tired of feeling like you should have it all figured out…
Maybe you’re doing your best to hold everything together, but underneath it all, you feel stressed, stuck, overwhelmed, or disconnected from yourself. You may put a lot of pressure on yourself to make the “right” choices, struggle with perfectionism or self-doubt, or find yourself repeating patterns in relationships and in life that you’re ready to change. You want to feel more confident, more grounded, and more like yourself, but you’re not quite sure how to get there.
If that sounds familiar, you don’t have to figure it out alone.
I work with people who are navigating life transitions, anxiety and stress, perfectionism, self-esteem and self-doubt, religious deconstruction, relationship challenges, and the uncertainty that can come with figuring out who you are and what you want. My goal is to create a space where you can be honest, feel genuinely understood, and explore the parts of yourself that may be difficult to make sense of on your own.
My approach is humanistic and person-centered, which means I don’t believe therapy should be one-size-fits-all. You are a whole person, not a diagnosis or a checklist of symptoms, and your experiences, values, personality, and goals matter. Together, we’ll explore the patterns and beliefs that may be keeping you stuck, develop tools that fit your life, and identify meaningful steps toward the person and life you want to create.
Therapy with me is about more than simply talking about what’s wrong. It’s a place to gain insight and turn that insight into action. We can work toward understanding yourself more deeply, trusting your own decisions, setting healthier boundaries, strengthening your relationships, and creating a life that feels more authentic to you.
Life rarely gives us clear-cut answers. There is uncertainty, contradiction, change, and a whole lot of grey space and that’s where real life happens. You don’t need to have everything figured out before starting therapy. You just need to be willing to begin exploring.
Let’s go into the grey together.

We currently are offering 3 Groups:
Somatic Healing Through Yoga
-This group is held monthly and involves a combined approach of group talk therapy followed by somatic processing through yoga led by a certified yoga instructor. Engage in healing both body and mind as we delve into a variety of topics and themes designed to enhance wellness and mental health.
Mental Health Book Club
-Participate in a 6 session learning workshop where we focus on psychoeducation through reading. A reputed book will be selected and discussed as it relates to a specific mental health topic. Please join us for growth, learning, and discussion as a group book club.
Pet Loss and Grief Support Group
-Pets are family and the grief associated with the loss of a beloved pet is often overlooked in our society. This support group invites all who have experienced the loss of a pet and wish to join a community of support as we process the grief and honor the memory of these loved ones through discussion and rememberance.
Group start dates and availability are subject to group size.
If you are interested in a group, please inquire directly via our contact form or email. Start dates will be posted when there are at least 4 group members.
