I work with children, adolescents, and adults, from a foundation of respect, collaboration, and genuineness. I offer individual and family psychotherapy and psychological assessments (including educational evaluations). Therapy is tailored specifically to each individual or family. I bring a strong clinical background and range of experiences that have allowed me to hone my skills to meet the needs of each of my patients. I work with a range of patients that may seek a deeper understanding of oneself or improved self-esteem, as well as changes in mood, behaviors, or relationships.

Welcome! My name is Cat and I am a Licensed Professional Counselor. I currently provide individual and couples therapy. I work with a range of clinical presentations including anxiety, depression, substance use, bipolar disorders, PTSD, and obsessive compulsive disorders, as well as those who have complex trauma histories. I believe in providing a holistic approach that honors the many different intersections each person has, so I'm excited to learn more about you and your needs to be able to tailor your sessions specifically to you.

Staring at the slow monotonous drip of the office coffee maker, you realize your life is slipping away one day at a time. Hopelessness and the overwhelm of motherhood is settling into your bones. Your days are a blur, what day even is it? You’re exhausted. You are drowning in laundry, appointments for your child, and no time for yourself. Feeling like you don't know who you are anymore. Are you more than a mother? Praying that you don't feel like a terrible mother at the end of the day. Praying that you aren't messing up your children one moment at a time. Praying that your spouse will understand how badly you need a break one day.

I strive to serve the community around me and advocate for those who are in need. I focus on psychotherapeutic models to aid individuals in understanding the role their brain plays in treatment. Educating individuals about brain structure, function, development, and explaining how neurobiology can be applied to individuals dealing with depression, anxiety, and other disorders. Interpersonal neurobiology of human development aids us to understand that structure & function of the mind & brain are shaped by our experiences especially involving emotional relationships.

I'm so happy you're exploring my practice. I can imgine there are a lot of emotions running through you; anxiety, worry, hope. I've heard all of these and more in my practice. These thoughts and feelings are so normal. Therapy is a big, important step for any couple or individual and one that will transform your life. It takes so much courage to take this step and be hopeful for something better!

I am a Licensed Professional Counseling Candidate based in Denver, CO. I continue to choose this work because I am passionate about helping others find their unique path to growth and healing. As a therapist, I combine my experience as a trauma-informed yoga and mindfulness instructor with my knowledge of evidence-based counseling and love of experiential education. My practice focuses on older teens, adult women, and genderqueer individuals struggling with depression, anxiety, identity exploration, and the impact of trauma.

I specialize in neurodivergence (ADHD, autistic, gifted, 2e) and anxiety/stress. Do you feel like no one really understands what you're dealing with? Do you need help managing life's stressful situations? Do you wonder why it seems like everyone else is just fine and you're barely surviving? Do you wish you understood why you are so overwhelmed and how to change that? I'm here to help - you don't have to do this alone!

You keep looping around the same negative thoughts, and the same feelings of anxiety and being insecure. Overtime, you notice patterns and experiencing seasons of hopelessness, vacillating with attempts at therapy or wellness trends. You are willing to take action but you are afraid that nothing will change. Ultimately feeling unsafe in relationships that you think should feel safe. Not knowing if it’s them or you with the issue. You end up investing time and emotional energy replaying the past or rehearsing the future, but never quite present. - You do not have to stay stuck. I believe you can experience restoration and freedom.

Many times, life transitions and unresolved trauma can make us feel like there is no way out. It can be overwhelming. But it does not have to be like that. As your therapist, I can provide a supportive nonjudgmental space for you to explore and resolve issues related to past trauma or present moment issues that cause distress to you.

It is vulnerable looking for a therapist. This is especially true when your life is constantly changing and you are being overwhelmed by both the choices and expectations you have for the future. It is common in life to become stuck. You know you are stuck when you feel like you never meet the expectations you have for yourself, are deeply burdened by the fear of making the wrong decision in life, and are exhausted by the roles others expect you to play. You are trying to keep it together, your job, kids, and social life but it just continues to overwhelm you.

I have provided counseling services in Denver since completing graduate school in 1999. I worked in both pediatric and adult medical settings, including hematology/oncology, emergency trauma and hospice. For 8 years, I worked at a school and community based medical clinic providing psychotherapy to all ages. I have also enjoyed private practice over the years. In each setting I work, including private practice, my therapeutic modality varies, but I always come from a strengths based/empowerment approach.

Once upon a time, I didn't know who I was, and that made me depressed, anxious and insecure. The problem was, I was also pretty functional. I could almost make it through this life - going to work, paying my bills, dining out. Thankfully, I lost my patience. If you're curious or confused or losing your patience, let's talk. I've earned my letters and have fancy theories, but I'm helpful because I've been there and then found a better way. (For the geeks out there, my way is ACT, Hakomi and Buddhadharma).

Psychotherapy can help you to transform your life! In a safe and supportive therapeutic environment, you'll learn how to break old patterns that keep you stuck, so that you can experience happiness, joy, and success in your life. By addressing the emotional issues that keep you from having a healthy relationship with yourself and others, you will develop self-acceptance, self-love and positive self-esteem. With consistent encouragement and support, you can overcome your problems, and heal emotionally inside so that you can reach your personal goals.

I offer in PERSON (Colorado) & VIRTUAL (California & Colorado) sessions for adults and couples. Clients come to me when they are exhausted of, or in addition to their current talk therapy with issues like: challenging relationships; feeling stuck; find the world to be unfriendly; anxiety; difficulty focusing; trouble sleeping; not knowing and communicating their truth to others; have chronic pain and unexplained physical syndromes; want to know what "self aware" means; and/or want to experience a positive connection to their bodies.

Are you feeling stuck, overwhelmed, anxious, and unsure of yourself? Are you trying to gain your footing after a recent life transition? Are you curious about how your past is influencing your present? Is your inner critic in overdrive during this season of life, telling you to "stop being so sensitive!" This is where I come in! You don't have to do this alone.

I love working with children, teens, and adults navigating all that life throws at them, while emphasizing everyone’s capacity to grow and heal. Through building a safe and strong connection, we can navigate these hard moments and memories from the past in order to heal these wounds in the present. Whether this means exploring your own childhood or recent difficult moments, using EMDR therapy for healing, or supporting you as a parent now, we can help you become who you want to be in your relationships and life aspirations.

I'm glad that you're exploring your options for greater personal growth and I'm excited to be a part of your journey. I work well with motivated individuals seeking to find and create positive meaning as well as overcome aspects of life that have become maladaptive. Each of us has the potential to live out our greatest self, be empowered, and live intentionally. Work with me to overcome life's roadblocks and re-connect with your truer self.

Have you been dealing with symptoms of anxiety, depression, unresolved pain, or anger? How you feel impacts so many things- your relationships, your health, your sleep and your work. You may have tried making some changes to feel better on your own, however, you may be frustrated by your progress. You know things could be better. Finding a therapist you truly connect with can help you gain the skills you need to transform your life into one that feels calmer, more joyful and healthier.
