  • I work with teens, adults and older adults. I utilize CBT, DBT, EMDR and other eclectic approaches.

    As your therapist, my mission is to be sensitive to your beliefs and values by providing you with a supportive non-judgmental safe space that allows you to open up and talk freely. Together we well work on identifying your goals and get to the core of what is concerning you in your everyday life; whether that be challenges from a past or current relationship, work/school, family conflicts, anxiety or grief. My aim is to elevate you in achieving your full potential!

  • I have success in empowering young adults who are in school and transitioning to post graduation to adults who are transitioning within their careers and personal life. I am also an EMDR trained clinician who provides support to adults who have experienced traumatic events

    in their past. My approach to therapy is client centered and I believe in tailoring my therapeutic techniques around you to meet your needs. You can count on me to be there every step of the way.

  • I have been providing care for 8 years working in diverse populations. My experience ranges from working in correction facilities with those struggling with addiction to working in Palliative and Hospice care. I am born and raised in Arizona and am an Alumni of Arizona State University. In my spare time I enjoy spending time outside, reading, art and relaxing with family.

    Please feel free to reach out and book a free 15-minute phone consultation, where I provide the opportunity to get to know each other.

    I am currently working towards independent licensure under the supervision of Holly Essler, LCSW.
