I am passionate about working with couples—both those that may just be beginning their years together or those with already many years together—who are wishing to shift out of disconnection and disharmony, to foster the intimacy, passion, unity, and harmony each partner desires within the relationship.

If you are looking for: energy, humor, joy, understanding, relief, flexibility, and support...stop scrolling! I'm a Licensed Professional Counselor (Colorado, Texas), and I would love to help you find all of the above. I prioritize my clients experiencing relatedness, connectedness, and autonomy. I'm also a proponent of discovering how to slow down in order to accomplish more, and better, throughout our daily lives.

My way of working with people has been shaped by experiences in the field for close to 30 years. I use a pscychodynamic approach that is humanistic, compassionate, empathic. I believe that people can heal each other and that healing can occur through psychotherapy. We all have ways in which we organize our experiences based on things that have happened to us. The way we make sense of experiences can have an expansive or a constrictive effect on how we live our lives. In therapy, we will work together to get a deeper understanding of how your experiences have shaped you and explore creating new pathways for living and loving.

My straight-forward approach, coupled with gentle humor and empathy, helps my clients learn to broaden their sense of self and develop meaningful relationships. I am committed to helping clients identify their strengths, values and dreams in order to live a purposeful life. I work with clients to minimize self-criticism so that they can begin to think about themselves in a new light and create new possibilities.

I use the Family Systems theory approach while identifying family of origin roles and patterns. Using a cognitive behavioral approach in helping clients identify thinking patterns that impact self-esteem and the choices one makes, I can guide you to new thought patterns that will raise the quality level of your life in many ways. Mood disorder therapy, including Bipolar Disorder and Major Depression, is a vital instrument for those affected. Medication assessment and management referral resources are available to compliment psychotherapy. Think in new ways, feel new emotions, live with a new view of you and your world.

If you're reading this I want to encourage you to keep the momentum! Reaching out to a therapist is one of the most difficult and hopeful things you can do and it’s worth it! I work with anxiety, depression, addictions and relationship issues. I've been a psychologist for over 35 years and I still love the work. My approach incorporates a spiritual orientation; this is due to working with people who are in recovery, and my own journey. Spiritual based psychotherapy is not about religion, but about accessing the Power that surrounds us, the power of Love. I am an active, engaging therapist with a sense of humor, it’s good to laugh.

Are you ready to pull yourself out of the hole you've been living in? Are you struggling to heal from on or multiple experiences, that has diluted your ability to remain strong? I am confident that together we can work to equip you with the necessary tools to help you face and overcome these challenges. Whether you're struggling with anxiety, addiction, or PTSD, it is important that you know you don't have to be alone in this journey.

My practice uses many techniques to work with folks who have had difficult experiences. These experiences can make people feel stuck, act out in ways that are hard to understand, and feel as though they are re-creating ineffective past patterns. It is possible to feel better, and I want to help.

If you or your child/teen struggles with challenges related to Autism, ADHD, or intellectual or learning disabilities I would love to support you. Neurodiverse children often have challenges with socialization, communication, and specific interests. Through child-led play and cognitive behavioral support I work with children to strengthen skills and regulate emotions. If your child is older or in adolescence there may be additional challenges with Neurodiversity such as anxiety or depression. I utilize CBT (cognitive behavioral therapy) and mindfulness based therapy to support clients and help them reach their goals.

Research shows that the number one key factor to living a long life is directly related to one’s feeling of connectedness with others. Yet, a quarter us feel as though we have no one to talk to. It’s biologically imperative to know that we belong, matter and feel seen and heard. Therapy helps people (sometimes for their first time ever) to feel understood and have their reality/experiences validated in a safe, nonjudgmental and accepting way. I use strengths-based, person-centered, CBT, mindfulness, and somatic techniques to help you work towards understanding your problems, and finding solutions.

Hello! Do you love someone struggling with an addiction? Have you tried everything to help but nothing seems to be working? Clients come to me because their spouse, significant other, child, parent, or friend is dealing with an addiction and they need help. My clients find that their lives have become chaotic, scary, and unpredictable and they live in a state of fear wondering "when is the next shoe going to drop?" They feel powerless, constantly on-edge, and want to know how they can help their loved one. Maybe at some point you realize that your mental health has begun to suffer as well and you could use some personalized support.

I work with clients of all ages and have a very relational approach, looking at attachment as a primary driver of thought patterns and behavior. My goal is to help my clients feel a better sense of self and self-worth. With children, I use play therapy and brain science to teach emotion recognition and regulation. When teens and young adults are striving for independence and searching for identity, it helps to have a safe, nonjudgmental space to ask questions, share experiences & practice coping skills. I provide parents with knowledgeable support from postpartum through adolescence.

For too long, mental well-being has been something that people were supposed to figure out for themselves. We're here to tell you that it really isn't necessary to go it alone. Our private practice is located near I-25 and Colorado Blvd. We utilize Play Therapy with children and teens in addition to working with adult individuals and families to create the empowerment to make choices that better fit the reality you envision for yourself.
