A surprising number of people go through life feeling deeply alone while appearing completely fine on the outside. They function. They work. They show up for other people. They keep moving. But internally, something feels disconnected, heavy, or difficult to explain. Sometimes it looks like anxiety or depression. At times, it manifests as grief, burnout, emotional numbness, relationship struggles, or the quiet feeling that life has become performative rather than meaningful.

Therapy can be a place to slow down, make sense of those experiences, and better understand what we are experiencing with greater clarity and self-awareness. To me, therapy is about more than simply reducing symptoms; it is a place to think honestly about your life. About your relationships. About the roles you have learned to play. About the ways you may have lost connection over time. Ultimately, my hope is that therapy can help build the self-awareness, perspective, and emotional resilience needed to continue growing long after our work together has ended.

My style is warm, engaging, conversational, reflective, and direct. I ask questions. I notice patterns. I also believe in authenticity. Meaningful change begins when people no longer feel the need to perform, hide, or pretend. Some sessions may be practical and focused on coping or problem-solving. Others may involve deeper conversations about identity, meaning, grief, relationships, spirituality, or the parts of life that people often avoid talking about altogether.

Before entering psychology, I earned a master’s in Religious Studies and Chaplaincy at Brigham Young University. Chaplaincy work placed me alongside people during moments of grief, uncertainty, fear, and loss, and profoundly shaped the way I understand suffering and human connection. It also taught me that people rarely need perfection from one another. More often, they need honesty, presence, and someone willing to sit with them in difficult places without judgment and without turning away.

Today, I am completing the final stage of my doctorate in Counseling Psychology at the University of the Pacific and am a Registered Psychological Associate (RPA) with the California Board of Psychology. I have a particular interest in working with those who feel pressure to hold everything together while struggling beneath the surface. Here at Wellspring Psychology, I consider it a privilege to sit with people in vulnerable moments of their lives, and continue to be inspired by the courage it takes to begin that journey.

Outside of psychology: I love spending time with family, friends, and our two corgis. I enjoy sports, traveling, and love reading up on business, technology, and spirituality.
