I am currently pursuing my graduate degree at Utah Valley University, where I also completed my undergraduate studies. With five years of hands-on experience in both inpatient and outpatient settings, I am a dedicated CSW intern specializing in the treatment of mental health and substance use disorders in adults. My approach is rooted in a strong foundation of evidence-based therapies, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Motivational Interviewing (MI), and trauma-informed care.
I am passionate about addressing the complex challenges associated with mental health, and I am committed to helping clients develop effective strategies for managing anxiety, depression, and other mental health concerns. My therapeutic approach integrates these evidence-based practices with a holistic, client-centered focus, emphasizing empathy, compassion, and understanding.
I believe in fostering a collaborative and supportive environment where clients feel safe to explore their emotions, build resilience, and work toward meaningful, sustainable change. By tailoring my methods to the unique needs of each individual, I aim to enhance overall mental well-being and empower clients to live more balanced, fulfilling lives.
