Desert Sage Counseling

I’m the owner of Desert Sage Counseling and a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor. I’m passionate about fostering growth in myself and in my community, and this practice is one way I get to support people in the work I care deeply about.

I was born and raised in Idaho’s Magic Valley and have a deep love for the high desert I call home. That landscape inspired the name Desert Sage Counseling—a symbol of resilience, growth, and rootedness in a place that shapes who we are.

My first “adult” job was at the College of Southern Idaho Challenge Course, where I discovered a love for experiential learning and building connection through games, physical challenges, and reflection. That experience continues to inform the team building workshops I offer today.

My work at CSI also set me on the path to becoming a mental health counselor and clinical supervisor. It taught me the power of growth through experience, processing, and stretching ourselves in new and meaningful ways.

Whether I’m working with an individual, a couple,  a group, a team, or fellow clinicians, my goal is the same: to create spaces where people feel supported, challenged, and empowered to grow. I’d be honored to connect with you and explore how we might work together.
