Originally from Seattle, Washington, I studied at Seattle Pacific University before spending over a decade working on film sets and TV shows including Modern Family, The 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.

Based in Boulder, CO, I work with clients going through challenging life transitions including breakups, relationship issues, pre and postnatal difficulties, and career challenges. I also specialize in treating clients suffering from chronic pain and worked for two years at the Pain Psychology Center in Los Angeles, CA. Lastly, I offer private workshops in Boulder, Denver, Los Angeles and New York City, with topics including Mindfulness for Chronic Pain, Healthy Relationships, Disarming Hostility, and Trusting your Intuition.
