Lose your anxiety while strengthening yourself
Late appointments available. Convenience of therapy from wherever you are - so no matter what is going on you can attend the session with peace of mind.
Do you find a reason to cancel plans at the last minute because the idea of going out leave you nauseous, anxious, and spiraling into what ifs? Do you feel like an imposter while working in your comfort zone appearing confident but believe as soon as you step outside of their you'll fail?
Many people are going through what you're going through. Often these feelings come from worrying about what might have happened in the past or what will happen in the future.
I have helped hundred be able to feel more confident and in control of their lives over the past decade. Together we can look at how your past is affecting your future. Using several different therapy tools we can work on releasing you from the weight you're carrying and start learning to leave the past (and future) where they belong.
Making Therapy Easy For You
With ease of access, appointments at various times of the day, and being able to do therapy from wherever there is no reason not to have therapy. This can be especially helpful to those dealing with chronic pain, students, couples, or those who can't afford to miss school.

About me
Do you ever feel alone or overwhelmed with life? Do you ever think that there is no hope and that this must be as good as it gets? Since 2013 I have worked with people who often have frequently felt this way. I have had the opportunity to work with teenagers, college students, trauma survivors, adults, and couples. As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker I look forward to working with you as you may be struggling with your own personal feelings of depression or anxiety as well as concerns with your significant other.
Some techniques I'm trained in (but not all by far):
- Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)
- Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT)
- Eye Movement Desensitization Reprocessing (EMDR)
- Gottman Couples Therapy
Why 1st Degree of Change
Small changes can create large differences over time. A plane leaves Puerto Vallarta (Rocky Point) on a trip around the world, with the intention of landing where they started. However their instruments are off by 1 degree so by the time they have traveled around the world they actually end up in Utah.
At 1st Degree of Change we understand that everyone is in a different place. So we celebrate the small accomplishments while recognizing that those small goals can change your direction forever.

I took the one less traveled by,
And it has made
all the difference.
