I am a therapist at Desert Horizons Therapy, and I'm passionate about working with adults facing a range of challenges, including substance use disorders, anxiety, depression, anger, and trauma. My background in outpatient services and community mental health has allowed me to engage with diverse populations, enriching my understanding of the complexities of mental health. I firmly believe that healing is not a linear process; everyone’s journey is unique, and therefore, everyone deserves a tailored approach to therapy.

Often it's a crisis or a series of unique events that bring people to therapy. Others may struggle with uncomfortable feelings or feel unsatisfied with patterns in relationships or in other areas of life. Therapy can help. I develop therapy relationships with thoughtfulness, kindness, and an appreciation of the humor in things. My perspectives draw from psychoanalysis, family-systems, socio-cultural contexts, mindfulness, and neurology. I incorporate many techniques; psychodynamic talk therapy, mindful-ness, EMDR, and others.

From the outside it looks like you have a great life. But on the inside, you never feel good enough and are overwhelmed. It’s exhausting trying to keep it all together and you don’t think you can do it anymore. You give so much to others while you continue to come last. Life has become unmanageable or maybe you look to others for validation or a sense of self. It is possible to find relief, connect to yourself and feel balanced. It is time for change.

When we can trust who we are and experience a sense of safety within us, regardless of what shows up to challenge us in the outside world, we begin opening to life in a way that offers us true joy and peace. Your body has the inherent wisdom needed for that kind of healing. I work with women and non-binary folx, and fit best with those seeking something different from traditional talk therapy. I provide an empathic and safe environment in which clients who seek to understand themselves further can explore who they are, free from judgment or criticism, and expand their capacity to tolerate difficulties they may encounter.

If your child or teen is struggling with their emotions, relationships, or behaviors, I can help. I can help your child or teen gain confidence, build self-esteem, change faulty thinking patterns, improve impulse control, and expand their emotional capacity. Children and teens face an incredible amount of stressors in their daily lives - school and social pressures, loneliness, cyber-bullying, the world of social media, substance use pressure, navigating relationships, learning to identify red flags, and trying to figure out what they stand for and how to be themselves in their world.

The clients I work best with are ready to dig deep and grow. Some folks have been in therapy before and wish to continue the process of self-reflection to deal with new and old places where they might feel "stuck." Here you can update, strengthen or start from scratch to build a strong sense of Self that works in this ever more complicated world. You will find your voice and learn to use it.

You have the right to feel complete, alive, and engaged -- in spite of your circumstances. Sometimes things can be so overwhelming that it's impossible to imagine a solution, but no matter how discouraged and stuck you may feel, you can feel better. Together we will identify the sources of your discomfort. We will work to find clarity, and develop a roadmap for your work. We will focus on your strengths, and we will help you gain the skills you need to become an advocate for yourself. I believe it is important to look at your past, but not to let it define your present or your future.

Are you feeling anxious or on edge? Are you overwhelmed because of past or recent trauma? I know how scary it can be to cope with trauma and anxiety. It can feel devastating, confusing, frustrating, and exhausting; and it impacts every part of you and your life. Together we will work to normalize how you're feeling, understand how trauma and anxiety are manifesting for you, and find ways for you to feel more grounded, empowered, and in control.

Your situation is not unworkable. Trauma, stress, and mental health struggles are often the stuff of life. What you make of these elements is your contribution to the art of living, an art form that demands continual practice and growth. I provide a compassionate, non-judgmental space for you to explore and reconnect with your inherent wisdom, clarity, and healing capacity. My aim is to assist you in shifting your energy from struggling against yourself to living intimately with the natural joy available to you in this life. Set down that which doesn't serve you and you will find room for what's here now, as well as what's to come.

There are times in life where we feel extremely alone, lonely, misunderstood, unhappy and beyond frustrated. Sometimes these overwhelming feelings can be about others; and sometimes about ourselves. These situations can arise because of: anxiety, change, depression, grief, conflict, and immense life challenges. At times, these problems are too much to face and bear alone. I specialize in helping clients through overwhelming problems and challenges. I collaborate with my clients to find changes they want to make, how they want to "see and live" their lives. My approach to therapy is a positive, hopeful, open approach.

SORRY...NOT NOW SCHEDULING NEW CLIENTS. I believe we can change by learning new behaviors and new ways of understanding. By working in the present, we can change the future. Even though I use humor, I know the work can be difficult. I am honored to be part of that work with my clients and to have been with them while they change their future. I adapt my work to your needs. “Client centered” is natural to me. With some exceptions I do not believe “one size fits all.” The exceptions are that every one deserves to be treated with respect, compassion, honesty, and complete integrity.

"Darkness cannot extinguish the light of even a small candle". Sometimes we just need a little bit of guidance to return our gaze to the light, to the good, and to the gratitude. Maybe you forget that they are there because of daily stresses or anxieties. Maybe you are just feeling so overwhelmed by your emotions that you find yourself struggling throughout the week. Maybe you just need a guiding voice to be present, help you understand your emotions, and learn coping and interpersonal skills that will help you. My experience and practice is focused on helping teens and young adults with this.
