Welcome to my page! I believe in everyone's power to heal and enjoy working with couple and individuals of all backgrounds. I became interested in the mental health field after my family adopted two children. We had a great therapist who helped us get through a rough transition. I then went on to study at Eastern Oregon University and earned a Master's in Social Work from Walla Walla University. I worked in community mental health for several years before joining Hope Mountain Counseling in 2024. I specialize in a variety of presenting challenges including anxiety, depression, substance use, and severe and persistent mental illnesses. I also have a special passion for working with trauma survivors. I am a christian and am very comfortable having religiously based conversations for clients looking for this. I am in network with most major insurance companies and have certifications in an array of treatment modalities including Cognitive Behavior Therapy, Accelerated Resolution Therapy, Gottman family therapy, Neurofeedback, and others. I look forward to working with you!
