Therapists in Park City, UT

I work hard to help my clients feel heard and teach them the skills they need to cope with the challenges of life. I also help them to find their voice and teach them to share it with those around them. Life is challenging, especially in the tough environment we live in today. I love learning and am trained in a wide variety of modalities. A few of my trainings include play therapy, trauma, EMDR, CBT, and LGBTQ+.

My approach is very relationship based, incorporating fundamentals of clinical practice...including CBT, DBT, psychodynamic and psychosocial approaches. I am very holistic and work with the person in the situation and the system. I specialize with many different presenting problems and have worked with very diverse populations in the past including; parenting skills/coaching, life skills, coping skills, anxiety, depression, high risk behaviors, adoption issues, adjustment issues, such as relocating, divorce, loss, identity issues and learning issues to name a few.

I provide therapy to individuals, families, and groups. I have treated a broad range of diagnoses and ages. My diverse experience allows me to work successfully with a large array of clients. Whether you are feeling overwhelmed by life, family, a specific event, or have struggled to feel your best for a long time, we can work together to increase control, confidence, and peace. Currently I see clients virtually and will open up in person appointments in Jackson, WY only as needed.

Our goal at Synergism Counseling is to help you uncover your true potential and lead a life that is worth celebrating. While we can't change the past, we can work together to better understand and resolve challenges in your life. Synergy is defined as the interaction of two or more parts to produce a combined effect greater than the sum of the separate parts. Together you can, with the help of an experienced therapist, make significant positive changes in your life, creating synergy. The relationship and trust we will build leads to empowerment, healing and strengthening individuals and family. Everyone can benefit from therapy.

Colleagues say to me, "people passing by your door want to know why there's always laughter coming out of your office." While being human sometimes is painful, I do my best to warmly connect with clients to lighten the load being carried. I believe that "Empathy is a radical act" and use basic therapy skills such as listening and validating to create a safe place to do the "scary" work of change. I believe people can find solutions to have fulfilling relationships.. no matter the challenges. Sometimes that takes creating inspiration..I'm here to do just that.

Welcome to your journey of self-discovery!

The one thing you can always count on in life, is that it will always change no matter if we are ready or not. Whether there is a struggle with trauma, depression, anxiety, a difficult transition in your life, or feeling overwhelmed, it is important to set aside time just for you; to explore, heal, and learn in an environment free of judgment or assumptions. Therapy is a way to be heard, emotions validated, and to gain a new perspective that will allow you to move forward.

Creating a space and an environment where you as the client feel welcomed, safe, heard, and understood is my goal. Whether you are a couple struggling through a difficult time or overcoming an affair, or an individual suffering from anxiety or depression, I aim to help you grow, develop coping skills, and find a healthy balance in your life. Using a variety of approaches from Cognitive-Based Therapy, to Gottman couples therapy, to Emotion-Focused Therapy and Strength-Based Therapy approaches, I work with you to find the right method and technique to help you improve your life and your relationships.

With regards to therapy, I tend to think in terms of months, not years. My role is to help clients get on a track that will lead to resolution of whatever brings them to therapy. I do not look for pathology or blame; rather, I try to help people build on their strengths. I also try to help individuals develop strategies and identify resources that work best for their unique situation.

Life can be complicated and full of traumatic events that overwhelm us. As a result, problematic patterns that negatively affect almost every area of life may begin. These overwhelming events may also negatively shift beliefs about self, others, and the world at large. Once this occurs, it can be difficult to repair without professional help. Additionally, trauma can be unique to the individual. It's not always a confrontation with mortality but rather, a deep hurt or betrayal by someone we should have been able to trust.

Therapy should be approached in a nonjudgmental fashion. We come from all walks of life, and our views and values may vary. Together we can create a safe and inviting atmosphere for you to tell your story, and be heard. I work with children, adolescents, and adults from varying backgrounds with different presenting needs. I can assist you in self-exploration at your desired level: to help you understand past and present experiences impacting your current life; to help you gain a deeper understanding of yourself; to feel healthier and more satisfied by maximizing your individual potential and better understanding limiting beliefs.

I provide supervision to clinicians working towards complete licensure. Please inquire for a consultation and fees.

Our relationships with our children can push us to a place of emotion that we never knew possible. Yes, to the depths of love and devotion! But parenting can also be one of the most overwhelming things we do. And most of us don’t get the support we need to do it. I help parents enhance their relationships with their children, providing support and strategies so parents can be the people they want to be and build resilient and thriving families. I have dedicated my career to helping parents gain the tools and support they need while doing the all-important work of raising communities of resilient and thriving children.

Therapy can help name experience, holding the moving pieces that keep bumping up against the edges of your consciousness, organizing them, fitting them back together in a way that makes sense and returning them to you with skills to manage them. Sometimes though, the articulate and self aware client will spend hours explaining things they already understand, while still feeling unseen and disconnected, like their inner world is still being missed, knowing there is hurt and dissonance but needing someone to help them connect to it. My holistic mind, heart and body approach can bring you to a place of both naming and experiencing.

Enhancing compassion for self and others are key elements of the healing process along with coping skill development, self-awareness, and acceptance to establish a foundation for change. I am now offering Ketamine Assisted Psychotherapy.

In 30+ years as a couples therapist, I've helped many couples work through problems to create the kind of partnership they truly want. Most couples tell me that they want to feel connected with their partner again; to stop the 'same old arguments' from cycling over and over; to stop living like roommates; to end the painful silences; to feel heard and understood; and to feel hopeful, and happy again.

Starting a new position in Park City & Murray June 3. It does not matter who you are, how old you are, what you have done, or what has happened to you. You are valuable just because you are here! As a military spouse for over 20 years, an immigrant, and a person that has encountered many of life's challenges, I know that we don't always choose what has happened to us.
