We as human beings long to connect and feel seen, heard, and validated. Stresses are mounting, emotions are high, and life is much more complicated.

We will work together to explore your strengths and help you to live your best life possible. Together we will work to support you in feeling deeply connected to yourself and to those you love and care about. I help to foster a sense of self-trust, connection, and belonging. Therapy is a place where you can explore what makes you laugh and cry.

It's time to think about yourself differently. I'm not exactly the touchy feely kind of therapist and won't ask "how does that make you feel" every 5 minutes. I help you get significant, lasting change, not just to feel good talking. I work with individual, couples and families. It's your thoughts and beliefs that cause your problems. If you want change in marriage, trauma, anxiety, depression, anger or even drug/alcohol use, we have to change the way you think about yourself, both individually and within your relationships. When we fix that, everything else falls in line.

Take a slow, deep breath. It's okay not to know exactly what you want out of therapy. My job is to help you cultivate the ability to communicate with your inner being and essence to understand yourself more. Through this process your needs and goals will become apparent and we will create a plan for how to move forward. I'm not going to lie, Therapy is not easy - but it is fulfilling in so many ways. My clients are motivated for positive change and put the work in to reap the fruits of their labor. My clients want to change their lives for the better - I am here to help guide them along their path. I love utilizing humor in growth.

I use a non-judgmental approach that values each person as an individual, considering the many factors that can create personal problems, and guides individuals, couples, and families to reach their goal of physical, emotional, and spiritual health and well-being. As a Colorado native with over 15yrs experience in Clinical/Medical Social Work, I have extensive expierence and a wide network of referrals/colleages when additional support is needed (i.e. elder law attorney, addiction specialist, homemaker services, etc.). I have a strong sense of humor and delight in the little things of life and maintain hope when others cannot.

How much time have you spent thinking: "I am tired of feeling this way" "is this really my life?" "how did I get to this place?"? Too much? What if I told you that you don't have to wake up feeling hopeless, lost, unworthy, or like you don't belong. You have the power to take control of your life and face battles with strength and courage. Our history is powerful and it shapes us in wanted and unwanted ways. It creates patterns and beliefs that can create a world rid of joy, purpose, love, peace, and connection.

I view the counseling process as forming a trusting relationship with you to explore the nature of who you are, why you are, & the nature of the problems you face. I use an eclectic approach including a variety of counseling theories to meet individual needs. I believe there is purpose in behavior which is shaped by positive, negative, and traumatic experiences. Throughout the counseling process we will explore how negative thoughts & experiences have reinforced the perception of oneself & worldview, and how to replace negative thinking patterns/behaviors to increase self-worth leading to fulfilling relationships and connections.

You don’t have to navigate this alone. Life can be overwhelming, and sometimes we lose our sense of direction. As a mental health counselor, my approach is guided by your unique needs, but at the core, I focus on strengths and values—helping you reconnect with what truly matters to you.
There’s no magic formula for healing, but everything you need is already within you. Sometimes, we just need someone to sit with us in the hard moments, to listen without judgment, to help us unlearn patterns that no longer serve us, and to encourage us as we take small but meaningful steps toward growth.

Do you feel not "enough"? Do you struggle with people-pleasing? Likely, you’ve spent much of your life hiding your true self—shaping yourself to fit what others want or accept. You may find yourself in relationships or situations with people who just don't "get" you. Somewhere along the way, you were taught that expressing yourself is wrong—that you should hide your emotions or needs because they're not okay. You have no idea what you need or you fear you will be rejected for having needs at all. You feel alone in your relationships, yearning for community of people who accept you for you.

Rediscover laughter and joy! Through my own journey of overcoming anxiety I have learned that avoiding negative emotions is impossible. In fact when we try to avoid them they become worse! They often turn into anger or anxiety. This causes personal stress and conflict in relationships. We are so afraid to feel pain that we numb out, lash out or become overwhelmed. My passion is to provide support and guidance for you to learn how to safely experience emotions, and learn coping skills. My collaborative, non judgmental approach to counseling enables you to feel empowered, gain clarity, and heal relationships.
