I've received training and supervision in various evidence-based orientations and therapies, including Person-Centered, CBT, Attachment/Developmental, DBT, and Motivational Interviewing.
I am currently accepting new clients. I have over 10 years of experience and hold a doctorate in Clinical Psychology from Northern Arizona University. I am also being supervised by Dr. Franza, a licensed clinical psychologist at Franza Psychological Services. If you're looking for someone to talk to, I understand that seeking help can be challenging, so I provide a safe and supportive environment to assist clients in processing challenges and difficult life circumstances. Negative experiences can influence our thoughts, emotions, and self-perception, leading to maladaptive patterns and behaviors that impact our lives.

Treatment modalities primarily used include Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Mindfulness, Psychoeducation, and a Person-centered, Strength-based Approach.
Having been in the field of behavioral health and counseling for 15 years I can understand that we all experience trauma and severe life stressors' that leave us feeling stuck and hopeless. Your crisis may be a breakup, depression, relationship issues, anxiety, chronic illness, or something that is so overwhelming that you are struggling with life. Often times we hold ourselves in bondage to the choices we have made. I believe some of life's most difficult experiences lead us to our most extraordinary growth. I will give you the tools to move forward from past attachments that seem to keep you stagnate in your life.

My approach is Person-Centered, strengths based, and trauma informed.
Stress? Anxiety? Withdrawal symptoms? Cravings? “I want to stop the cycle. I do. I don’t know where to begin, what to say. There’s just so much to figure out…and it’s all too much. I’ll just take another drink, pick up one more time.” Or, you’re the family member, partner, or friend who’s trying to help someone they care about with their addiction but living on the other side of it. “I’m not sleeping anymore. I have my own racing thoughts, heart palpitations, anxiety. I’m consumed by their addiction and I don’t even use! I’ve taken them to pick up before. What am I doing? I need someone to help me sort this out.”

I prefer a comprehensive approach to healing, including-but not limited to, EMDR therapy, solution-focused therapy, CBT, DBT, and person-centered therapy.
I believe it is imperative that we broaden our definition of "trauma." Trauma can be ANYTHING disruptive (in addition to assault, combat, death, etc.). An unhealthy relationship; a break-up; bullying; neglect; a stressful event or period of time are all traumatic. These disruptive experiences influence what we think about ourselves and our world; and they often guide our decisions and perspectives.
