My personal journey with OCD started with my youngest son, who required treatment. We tirelessly searched throughout the entire state for a therapist who employed evidence-based treatment methods and genuinely grasped the concept of OCD. As my son got older, he took the initiative to successfully seek treatment out of state.

I founded Mindset Family Therapy in 2008 to better serve our community's need for specialized local expertise. We have experienced overwhelming success in treating OCD and OC related disorders. In my humble opinion, we (clinicians at Mindset Family Therapy) understand OCD and know how to address it!

I offer a gentle approach to therapy. I will support you in discovering your values and choosing a life for yourself that is resonant with your values. In that pursuit, we will develop skills together to help you stay in contact with the present moment, to be grounded and alert to your experiences, and increasingly resilient in the face of uncomfortable and difficult moments.

I enjoy the process of therapy and love hearing the unique stories of each individual I meet. I hope that as we work together you can gain a richer understanding of yourself and the world around you, connect more deeply with the people that you love, develop a greater sense of meaning and purpose in your life, and feel safe and comfortable just being you.

Thank you for embarking on this journey towards healing. I know it took a lot of courage to just take this step of looking for a therapist so I am grateful that you are here. I have witnessed healing in my experience working with children, adolescents, adults, and families in helping to navigate life's challenges and difficulties. I love this work and I welcome and am inclusive to all races, beliefs, socioeconomic statuses, disabilities, and LGBTQIA+ members.

My experience includes working with adolescents, adults, couples, and families in both outpatient and residential treatment settings. I believe therapy is most effective when it is a collaborative process considerate of the unique needs, circumstances, cultural backgrounds, and strengths each client brings.

I am passionate about helping individuals find healing, resilience, and renewed purpose in their lives. I have experience working with clients of all ages, genders, and backgrounds, but I feel especially called to support women and young adults. Throughout my career, I have had the privilege of working closely with early-returned LDS missionaries as they navigate the complexities of transition, grief, identity, and faith.

People are more than their problems. I believe everyone has unique strengths that, when developed, can lead to a rich life filled with meaning and joy. My goal is to help clients align with their values, expand their emotional toolset, and move beyond thoughts and experiences that no longer serve them—all within a compassionate and supportive environment.

I firmly believe that change is possible for everyone. In my own life, I have experienced the value of a trusted witness share in my journey, and I'm humbled to be able to be that person for others. I hope to create an open and collaborative space where healing can come through self-discovery and insight. I believe the real answers come from the client, and strive to maintain that focus in my practice.
