Team & Trailheads

For over 15 years, I’ve been walking and talking with clients. In 2009, I founded Trailtalk, believing that movement and nature are the most powerful tools for maintaining mental wellness. As one of the early pioneers, I helped bring walk-and-talk therapy into mainstream private practice as a powerful way to process emotions, reduce stress, and reconnect with yourself. I haven’t looked back since. I refer to my sessions as emotional tune-ups. As both a psychiatric nurse practitioner and a mental health therapist, I have combined nursing theory with wilderness therapy techniques. I prioritize lifestyle changes and mindfulness and introduce practical ways to regulate your mood. We explore medication as part of a thoughtful, collaborative plan when needed. I work with teens, adults, couples, and families on the trail, sitting outdoors, or via telehealth. If you’re feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or simply looking for a fresh perspective, I’d be honored to walk this path with you. Better emotional health begins with one step. Let’s take it together.
