Hi, I'm

AMHC—ASSOCIATE CLINICAL MENTAL HEALTH COUNSELOR

After 20+ years leading teams, mentoring professionals, and navigating my own recovery, I've learned that most people don't need more advice. They need someone who sees their potential when they've forgotten how to see it themselves.

Many of my clients are high-capacity people who look like they're holding it all together on the outside while quietly struggling underneath the surface.

Who I Work Best With

I may be a good fit for:

Gamers, creators, and deep thinkers trying to find their place in the world

LDS young adults navigating faith questions, faith transitions, or spiritual growth

People living with disabilities or navigating systems that weren't designed with their needs in mind

Neurodivergent individuals who are tired of feeling misunderstood

Anyone who is feeling lost, disconnected, socially anxious, or unsure of who they are becoming

Not sure if I'm the right fit?

Our care coordinators can help match you with the best therapist for your needs, availability, and goals.

People are often stronger than they realize. Sometimes they just need someone willing to remind them of that until they can see it for themselves

My Approach

I believe most people already have far more strength, resilience, and potential than they realize. Life experiences, trauma, loss, disappointment, and difficult relationships can sometimes make it hard to see those strengths clearly. Therapy provides an opportunity to slow down, gain perspective, and reconnect with the person you want to become.

My style is supportive, direct, and growth-oriented. I value honest conversations, practical solutions, and creating a space where clients feel both challenged and encouraged.

Whether you're facing a major life transition, relationship difficulties, trauma, or simply feeling stuck, our work together focuses on helping you move forward with greater clarity, confidence, and purpose.

How I support my clients

Before becoming a therapist, I spent more than 20 years developing leaders, building teams, and helping people navigate some of the most difficult seasons of their lives.

What I discovered is that personal growth follows many of the same principles, whether you're leading a company, rebuilding a relationship, healing from trauma, or finding your way forward after life takes an unexpected turn.

Many of the people I work with are carrying far more than others realize.

This is especially true for men, who are often taught to push through pain, solve problems on their own, and never let anyone see them struggle. Unfortunately, those same strengths can become barriers to healing. Therapy provides an opportunity to put down the armor for a while, better understand what's happening beneath the surface, and develop healthier ways of navigating life's challenges.

My work incorporates trauma-informed care, strengths-based counseling, CBT-informed interventions, solution-focused approaches, leadership coaching principles, and family systems perspectives. I work with individuals, couples, and families navigating trauma, anxiety, depression, addiction, relationship conflict, family challenges, grief, life transitions, men's issues, spirituality, and personal growth while helping clients build resilience, confidence, self-awareness, and meaningful change.
