"When you come out of the storm, you won’t be the same person who walked in. That’s what the storm is all about." -Haruki Murakami

Joseph Bobrow said: “What we cannot hold, we cannot process. What we cannot process, we cannot transform. What we cannot transform haunts us. It takes another mind to help us heal ours. It takes other minds and hearts to help us grow and regrow the capacities we need to transform suffering. This is done in concert, reweaving the web of connective emotional, relational and spiritual tissue that cumulative trauma tears asunder. With another mind and heart, and an informed, compassionate culture, it is possible to transform ghosts into ancestors.” I can be that other mind and heart. And I can help to regrow and transform suffering into meaning and connection. I believe that healing is attainable for those that seek it. As a therapist, I do not heal people, but rather through an internal transformation, people heal themselves. With the right tools, knowledge, and skill individuals heal themselves. Having studied Family Science at BYU, Psychology at UVU, and embraced an emphasis in trauma in my graduate studies at GCU, my education is well-rounded and inclusive of a variety of perspectives, all of which I may choose to utilize in order to best aid my clients. I am certified in Gottman Couples Therapy Levels 1 and 2 as well as the Treating Affairs and Trauma course. With individuals, I use parts work as part of an IFS framework, and look forward to the completion of my EMDR training so that I can provide that as well. There is something so profound and beautiful in creating meaning from the overcoming of suffering. While no one is immune from experiencing it, what we take from it and what we do with it are ours to decide. Decide that the work it may take to come out the other side of whatever it is that you are facing is worthwhile. You are worth it.
