Meet Your Women’s Health Therapist in Utah

Virtual therapy for women across Utah

Maybe you’re a new mom who doesn’t recognize herself. Maybe you’re in your 40s and suddenly can’t sleep, focus, or keep your patience. Maybe your body is holding onto old memories.

People tell you it’s “just hormones” or “just stress,” but you know it’s more than that. You’re right.

Why i do this work

I founded Lunara as a passion to help women get the specialized support that is so lacking in mental health (and healthcare in general). I’ve worked in therapy for many years, and saw women getting dismissed or given false diagnoses, and decided to start my own practice where we take the whole woman into account: hormones, life phases, nutrition, sleep, etc. when addressing mental health concerns.

What sessions with me are like

Every session has a purpose. I keep your goals in front of us so we’re not just talking in circles, and I bring a lot of warmth (and enthusiasm) to the room. Everything I use is trauma-informed, research-backed, and tailored to you.

Outside the therapy Room

When I’m not in session, you’ll find me outside either on my mountain bike or navigating canyons by rope. I love exploring with my husband and our little boy. At home I enjoy quieter hobbies too: video games, knitting, and reading.
