Currently licensed in Arizona and Nevada with 13+ years of professional work experience in the Social Work Field. I have experience in helping clients with LGBTQIA+ related issues, trauma and abuse, coping with grief and loss, & motivation, self esteem, and confidence. "Without having the Triangle of Self balance of the Mind, Body and Spirit, one has not truly aligned oneself.”-White Cloud Woman (Ma’kpe’ya Ska’ Winyan)
Works with individuals (age 13+) and families with a wide range of clinical concerns, including depression, anxiety, substance abuse, history of sexual trauma, grief, adjustment to aging, adjustment to chronic illness, and end-of-life issues.
Is a strong advocate for mental health services in the Native American/Indigenous population. Her culture, upbringing, and lived experiences have informed her clinical work, where she believes in cultivating the Being of a person from not only the physical side, following the medical model of treatment, but with an awareness of inner Spirit.
