My Approach to Helping

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker who is dedicated to continuing to utilize the latest technologies to meet the massive mental health demands our world has experienced since the pandemic. I am also a member of the BIPOC community and grew up in the very different areas of rural Utah with summers in Honolulu, Hawaii. This gave me the unique opportunity to learn from many different ways of thinking and find commonality among others. I have extensive training in working with the whole lifespan, but especially youth and caregivers. In my personal life I have found playing games with my own kids (from Mario Cart to Roblox and the Sims) has made them open up more and be willing to talk in a way where they didn’t feel pressured. My hope is always to help ease the very real burdens people face today and connect with those who have not felt understood.

More Info About My Practice

I team up with Theraplay, a clinic that specializes in integrating video games in therapy. Part of play therapy was meant to help connect with children and teens on a medium they're familiar with in order to help build a safe environment where change can happen. Children and teens are no longer as involved in card games and the typical mediums we used to use. Connecting over video games can be more natural and effective for many clients.
