About Me
I I am a proud native to the state of Montana, raised in a small, lumber town. My husband and I are small business owners in Missoula and are raising our four kids who are active in sports and school activities. After a decade of full-time momming, I returned to higher education and received my Master's in Clinical Mental Health and Counseling from Colorado Christian University, which is one of the top 5 CACREP accredited programs in the nation.
​
I believe we are all doing the best we can with what we have. Sometimes what we have is deep pain, buried (or very alive) trauma, and a sense that we are failing. What gets forgotten is all the strength that has gotten us as far as we are! In my work with clients, we work to discover what is driving the choices we make and intentionally discover healing and strength. We empower through choice, acceptance, and self-compassion. I believe when we transform what we have, we move to something better. My primary experience is working with trauma, survivors of domestic violence, assault, and childhood abuse.
Therapeutic approaches
No two clients are the same. I use a personalized, tailored approach for each individual. This is done collaboratively with clients through listening, discovery, and feedback. Together we discover more about who you are, what makes you you, and how you move through the world. With awareness, comes opportunities for choices and intentional changes.
It's a priority for me to provide a safe and welcoming space for all of my clients. My office is designed to create a warm and inviting atmosphere that will put you at ease and promote healing. Come visit today and begin your journey towards a happier and more fulfilling life.
