Originally from Seattle, Washington, I studied at Seattle Pacific University before spending over a decade working on film sets and TV shows including Modern FamilyThe Office and Saturday Night Live. After serving as "unofficial therapist" for countless cast and crew members, I realized my calling and enrolled at University of Southern California to earn my Master of Social Work (MSW) degree. 

While completing USC's program at an Honors Degree level, I interned at The Haven, helping homeless female veterans cope with post-traumatic stress disorder, and at USC’s Center for Work and Family Life, counseling staff and faculty. I also spent nights and weekends becoming a Professional Certified Coach through the International Coach Federation’s prestigious program.

In 2016, I worked at the Pain Psychology Center in Beverly Hills for two years, where helping clients heal from chronic pain became my passion. In addition to working with individual clients, I’ve been a therapist in medical studies through the University of Colorado Denver.

Based in Boulder, CO, I see clients from all over the world, thanks to the world wide web. When I’m not working, I enjoy spending time in the mountains with my husband and two daughters.
