I am a Marriage and Family Therapist with experience working with individuals, couples, parent–child relationships, and families. I view each client within the context of their family system, recognizing that every family has unique strengths and challenges that shape how individuals understand themselves and the world. I help clients gain insight into these dynamics, identify their strengths, and use them to overcome difficulties and achieve their personal and relational goals.

I have specialized training in couples and family therapy, including Level 1 Clinical Training in the Gottman Method Couples Therapy and Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT), including Externship and Core Skills, as well as Emotionally Focused Individual Therapy (EFIT) Levels 1 and 2. As a certified Gottman Bringing Baby Home Educator, I emphasize the importance of maintaining strong partner connections during the transition to parenthood. I am also certified in Accelerated Resolution Therapy (ART), a brief, evidence-based approach that uses guided eye movements and imagery to help clients process traumatic experiences, reduce emotional distress, and resolve trauma-related triggers.

I welcome clients of all ages and work with a wide range of concerns, including depression, anxiety, trauma, relationship conflict, suicidal ideation, parenting challenges, stress management, social difficulties, and family distress. I am trained in teletherapy and offer both in-person and online services.

It’s more than Happily Ever After...
It’s Real Life and Growth
I am committed to providing the best quality care possible. It’s understood that everyone is unique, which is why I take time to help identify each individual’s and couples’ path to building or remodeling what will make things work best for you.

Coaching is available online anywhere. For in person at my office located in Meridian and serving Eagle, Boise, Nampa, Star, Caldwell, Mountain Home, Fruitland and the surrounding communities.

No one teaches us how to navigate relationship challenges and experience deeply close relationships. I help couples and family members experience true connection by identifying the roots of their issues, heal from past hurts, and learn how to connect in new and intimate ways. I help you have new experiences with yourself and your partner which is how lasting change happens.

I am certified in Emotion-Focused Couples Therapy (EFT) and have advanced training in Sex Therapy and Internal Family Systems (IFS). I am also certified in many trauma therapies including EMDR, Accelerated Resolution Therapy (ART), and Trauma-Focused CBT.
