Achieving your life goals can be challenging, especially when you're dealing with difficult emotions or feeling overwhelmed. The therapeutic approach is designed to help you explore your thoughts, feelings and behaviors in a confidential and supportive environment. Life is full of windy roads and we all need extra support at times. Perhaps what worked well before doesn’t anymore. Think of it as building muscle; sometimes we have to exercise a muscle in a different way to achieve results. And though change can be scary, let's work together to learn the tools you need to feel better about yourself today.

Here's what I know about how women trying to cope with anxiety: we tend to try to keep pushing ourselves, while ignoring signals to slow down.
Welcome, anxious women! It's great that you're finally doing something for yourself. Anxious women tend to be overwhelmed, feel that we don't matter, feel disappointed by our partner not supporting us, and worried about not being the best mom, wife, or employee that we can be. We tend to feel like life is spinning out of our reach. Many times, we even doubt ourselves and our ability to be effective. Does this describe you? I know what you're going through, and I can help.

I have a unique background and heart to support emergency responders because I am an EMT and retired law enforcement officer. I have been a licensed therapist in Arizona since 2007. I believe first responders are very strong and resilient people, but sometimes they need support by a licensed professional who understands their jobs and work culture. I can help them build resilience, learn additional coping tools to get better outcomes at work and at home, and I can provide a safe and understanding environment to "off-load" and process some of the intrusive effects of trauma they've experienced (accepting adult clients only).

My doctoral project is on sexual trauma to women.
If you have been through trauma, you may need support to help you navigate your healing process, as you work toward creating a better life for yourself. Your relationship with yourself and others will improve and change. Research tells us that people desire to live a happy and fulfilling life. As life is full of difficulties, you can find the joy within, even through trials you have experienced. Hope and healing... this is a process that I am familiar with. In combined efforts with clients, the healing process is activated and deeply meaningful lives are created. I will appreciate an opportunity to work with you.

Your world has turned upside down, and it feels impossible to imagine a world that is right-side up without your loved one. People around you want you to be okay, but they don’t know how to take away the sadness, anger, and pain of loss that weighs you down. They expect you to pick yourself up and just get over it. If they could see the void you have inside, they would know how hard it is just to get up and get out of bed each day. You are devastated; every wave of emotion that washes over you prevents you from finding solid ground. “This is not how it was supposed to be,” you think. Now, you must figure out how to move forward.

I specialize in trauma therapy for both children and adults. With a deep understanding of how trauma can impact individuals differently, I work with clients who have experienced both "big T" traumas, such as abuse, severe accidents, or significant loss, and "little t" traumas, which include everyday stressors or smaller, yet impactful, life events. I believe in creating a safe, supportive, and non-judgmental environment where clients feel empowered to explore their emotions and experiences. I am dedicated to helping individuals to heal and live their best life.

Although I have worked with diverse populations, I gravitate toward the family systems approach and feel that a family’s distress is not attributable to just one person, but rather a combination of interactions of individual members within that “system.” I have been using Emotion Focused Therapy (EFT) with couples and individuals. Recently, I have decided to open my own practice. My focus will continue to be EFT as well as Accelerated Resolution Therapy (ART) to help address the many clients who come to the therapy session with backgrounds in trauma.
