About

Hello. First, allow me to commend you for making the decision to seek therapy. This decision is one of great significance and courage. Knowing that entering into therapy can be scary for many, it is my goal to help my clients have a comfortable and successful experience in therapy. I am a licensed Marriage and Family Therapist in the state of Nevada. I received my Bachelor of Art's degree in Psychology from the University of Oregon. I then went on to obtain my Master's of Science in Marriage and Family Therapy, from the University of Nevada Las Vegas. I have worked in both agency and private practice settings. I enjoy working with a diverse client population and have experience treating a wide range of concerns, including mood disorders, significant life changes/transitions, issues within relationships, addiction, grief and loss, issues related to identity and/or self-esteem, and trauma and abuse.
I use a variety of treatment methods. I believe that each person is unique, and therefore, deserves a therapy specifically tailored to them, their experiences, and needs. Some of the therapeutic modalities I frequently use include experiential therapy, narrative therapy, motivational interviewing, and cognitive behavioral therapy. However, above all, I believe the most important factor for therapeutic change and a client's overall progress, is the relationship between therapist and client. Therefore, I highly prioritize the therapeutic relationship and maintain an atmosphere of safety, compassion, and respect. I work to empower my clients towards hope and healing.
I believe you possess the innate capability to conquer your problems, but we can all become stuck, confused, or overwhelmed. Talking it over with an uninvolved, unbiased, trained individual focused solely on helping YOU can make all the difference. Allow me to provide that for you. Lets solve the problem together.
