Biography: I am a healer for those seeking enlightenment. I believe in treating everyone with respect and in accordance with the laws set forth by the Lord our God. I am licensed in California and Montana. I offer 15 years of clinical expertise along with my mission, which is to guide injured souls by assessing their wounds and mapping out unique healing paths that reunite them with their purpose in life. I have experience helping clients who battle interference caused by dark energies (stress, anxiety, depression), life lessons disguised as trauma (relationship issues), toxic parenting and narcissistic abuse (trauma, abuse, anger, emotion management). I also offer relationship guidance for those seeking healthy relationships. Healthy relationships reverberate light. Unhealthy relationships breed toxins like anger and contempt, which add darkness to the atmosphere. I help individuals and couples enhance communication, discover root causes of conflict, accept differences, let go, mediate and settle disputes. Working with me is suitable for those who are firm in their decision to heal and overcome obstacles. I work with beings who are motivated to heal and release the stagnant energy attached to old wounds and patterns, commonly referred to as "baggage." Each session is personalized. This means you are unique. Therefore, your journey and the path toward enlightenment will be unique. The guidance offered will assist you in working to achieve your desired outcome, should you follow it.

Care Philosophy: Talkspace partners with care providers who find satisfaction in providing therapy in a way that prioritizes the clients convenience and preferences. Because all therapy takes place virtually, through messaging, live virtual sessions, or both, providers can communicate more frequently and casually in comparison to traditional face-to-face therapy. Talkspace treatment methods are supported by scientific research and are committed to non-judgmental care that is inclusive and respectful of cultural and other identities. Talkspace patients are matched with the best provider for them based on their needs and availability during the registration process. Once matched with a provider, patients may change at any time, and may contact support to request a specific provider. *The above is attributed to Talkspace and not the provider.*

Biography: I am certified as an LCPC in Montana and have over 15 years of experience in the field. I believe that most people want to and have it in them to help themselves. We all just need some support and direction sometimes. I originally got into the mental health world through how we think during sport/activity because I feel it is important to meet people in a venue that works for them whether that's sport, activity or using an easier to access format. From there I kept going deeper and deeper into what influences our happiness and fulfillment and what makes us feel successful. Along that path I've had experience performance coaching, working with youth and those recovering from injury, working with those in crisis, LGBTQ+ folks, weight loss coaching, using biofeedback and physiological aspects to address stress and anxiety, coaching sport, and teaching at both the high school, undergraduate, and graduate levels among other things. These experiences have culminated in my style being very open, non judgemental and patient while being equally practical and theoretical. I believe in capitalizing on your strengths. My style is skills based utilizing coping skills/CBT/DBT and mindfulness skills, and am direct when needed. However no two clients and relationships are the same and I utilize aspects from many approaches that fit the situation best. I really respect those working to improve themselves as I believe it can be a life long process. (I know it is for me!) Thanks for taking the time to see if we might be a good fit working together.
