I earned a Batchelor of Science degree, Cum Laude from Westminster College, Salt Lake City, Utah in 1978.  I have over 42 years of direct clinical experience in the public and private sector.  I have worked with consumers with a wide range of challenges and concerns that include depression, anxiety, relationship issues, self-esteem, career issues, and anger management.  I also have expertise working with culturally diverse people, and people who have experienced physical and emotional trauma. My therapeutic interventions are supportive, interactive, validating, and nonjudgmental.  I embrace treating everyone with respect, compassion and with unconditional positive regard.  

My approach combines cognitive behavioral interventions, humanistic, mindfulness, and psychosocial interventions.  I will tailor our dialogue and treatment plan to meet your unique and specific needs. I will assist consumers to seek empowerment, realize their strengths, and enhance their current emotional being.
