Licensed in Utah.

I work primarily with Asian and multiracial couples to improve communication, work through conflict, and return to a secure and enjoyable relationship. I also work with individual teens and adults regarding trauma, religious and cultural identity, and giftedness.

I work with adults and couples who want to better understand themselves as they work through challenges. I gather information and help generate ideas that support autonomy and healthy relationships. I support clients as they find strength in a challenging world, adjust to life transitions, and manage difficulties such as families, illness, grief, depression, and anxiety. Using EMDR therapy I can assist clients in processing and healing from personal trauma(s). I see therapy as an active and collaborative process. I am here to listen and to help you navigate a desired change.

I have over 20 years experience helping high school aged teens (14-18), adults, couples & families. My therapy style is friendly and casual. I believe humor is healing & I use it often. My treatment approach involves talking through the issues/concerns, guiding clients towards personal insights/growth, and giving direct feedback/direction. I also teach theory guided interventions/skills that are effective at creating desired change and reducing negative symptoms. My approach has been refined by my clients. They want to be heard & understood, but they also want to learn & grow. I would like to partner with you to reach your goals.

Life is painful. You may feel lost or trapped, overwhelmed or numb, fearful or broken. You need someone to hear and understand you, to support you and help you find a way forward out of your pain. I want to provide a place where you can feel safe, valued, and respected so that you can face with courage whatever blocks you from discovering your true and unique beauty. I would be honored to join you in this important and brave work, using my expertise and your honesty and commitment. A major part of my work is also helping couples find better understanding and mutual support.

I find people are far more capable and resilient than they realize. My approach to therapy is collaborative, eclectic and person-centered. Whether the challenge stems from anxiety, depression, trauma or conflict within your relationship, skills can be learned to navigate your life circumstance. Relationships make up the core of who we are as human beings and effort is needed to learn skills to communicate, have healthier conflict resolution or restructure a relationship to fit our needs (with others and self).

You are trying so hard but it never seem good enough; You are exhausted but can’t seem to rest; You’ve tried to find peace but you can’t seem to quiet your mind; You feel like you are always letting someone down; You catch yourself asking “what is the point”. You want to feel at ease with yourself; You want to feel enough without having to be perfect; You want to feel connected with your loved ones; You want to feel in control of your life; You want to feel present in important moments; You want to find joy and passion once again.

I have been working with individuals and couples since 1978. I love what I do and I believe my clients know it. I also believe they feel the respect I have for them. I know it takes courage to ask for help, especially when feeling vulnerable. All of us, at some point, experience painful life circumstances or relationship difficulties--usually accompanied by symptoms of depression and/or anxiety. At times we know our lives are not what they could be, but in spite of all our best efforts we may feel stuck.

My ideal client is someone who has an intention to change. During my 31 years as a practicing therapist I have encountered a wide range of issues. Having worked with a large number of clients to the point of solution, I have concluded that in the end, the core of helping people is to listen. Effective listening gives me a deep understanding of their current situation. I can then gently point them toward getting more of what they want. My experience and compassion have often proven to be crucial elements for our success. This is the work of my life.

Making the decision to become well holistically is being proactive with your life encompassing the mind, body and spirit. By engaging in therapy you are taking the first step to obtaining the skills you need to reach your goals, gain useful knowledge and feel empowered. I work from a variety of treatment models, unique to each individual and situation.

We serve couples in the areas of relationships and sexuality. We offer couples counseling for all relationship issues. We use research-based Gottman Methods.

It is hard for many of us to reach out to someone for help. It may be embarrassment, or being unsure how therapy would help heal you. Our journey together will be a compassionate, nonjudgemental classroom where you will learn more of your pure self and its ability to heal. It is important that we both see clearly in our work together: "There’s one skill at the center of any healthy family, company, classroom, community, university or nation — the ability to see someone else deeply, to know another person profoundly, to make them feel heard and understood.” David Brooks, New York Times

Even with the current situation, we are still accepting new clients. However, please email us rather than call. Our goal is to focus on mental wellness. We do this through a variety of treatment methods tailored for your specific needs. Our providers will work with you to determine whether CBT, DBT, Mindfulness, Art therapy, or other treatment methods are best in helping you overcome your current challenges. We’ll work together to develop an action plan to gain the skills and insight that help you get back on track to happiness and success.

We specialize in couples/relationships, communication issues, sex therapy, and grief and loss, as well as anxiety and sex therapy for individuals.
