About My Clients

Life can feel overwhelming when you’re navigating the ups and downs of parenthood, a faith transition, religious trauma, postpartum struggles, or trying to reconnect with yourself, you don’t have to do it alone. Together, we’ll explore the emotional challenges you are experiencing and get you tools to heal from trauma and rebuild your identity with clarity and confidence.

My Background and Approach

I specialize in helping women navigate life after Mormonism, religious trauma, faith transitions, and the complicated identity shifts that come with motherhood. Maybe you've spent most of your life being the good girl, doing what was expected of you, and putting everyone else's needs before your own. Now you're questioning beliefs you once held deeply, figuring out what you actually want, or realizing that the guilt, perfectionism, and people-pleasing you learned growing up are still showing up in your relationships, parenting, and everyday life. You don't have to figure all of that out alone. My approach to therapy is warm, collaborative, and down-to-earth. I'm not the kind of therapist who just nods and asks, "How does that make you feel?" I show up as a real person. I'll listen, ask thoughtful questions, offer new perspectives, teach practical tools, and help you make connections between your past experiences and the patterns you're noticing today.

My Personal Beliefs and Interests

As an ex-Mormon woman and mom myself, I deeply understand the complexities of faith transitions, identity shifts, and the emotional toll of leaving a high-demand religion. I’m passionate about supporting women as they reclaim their autonomy, redefine their values, and heal from religious trauma. I’m a strong advocate for mental health awareness, LGBTQ+ rights, and social justice, believing that everyone deserves to live authentically without fear or shame. My work is rooted in compassion, inclusivity, and the belief that healing happens when we feel truly seen and accepted.
