Thanks for visiting my profile and website. Are you looking for some help and perspective on life transitions, events or historical trauma causing anxiety, depression, or leading to some internal or external conflicts? Then I welcome hearing more from you, what you hope to achieve through therapy and how we can resolve these issues. I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker located in Salt Lake City, Utah, dually licensed in Minnesota, where I can meet with folks virtually. The last 10+ years I've been providing care to adults and adolescents in outpatient healthcare settings.
I approach therapeutic work with a foundation of supportive, strengths-based and mindfullness approaches to building trust and rapport. Theoretically, I use a psychodynamic and attachment perspectives to understand your life, relationships, experiences and overall narrative. I am also trained in EMDR and Acceptance & Commitment Therapy and IFS-informed.
Are you scratching your head and wondering what does all this mean?! Here’s the deal: I think the family, friends, partners, colleagues, religions and institutions you have interacted with throughout your life have impacted you in significant ways. It's important to understand and evaluate this together then decide how to move forward with your true self.
