“I don’t feel I am in the driver's seat of my life anymore”; “The demands of work have become too difficult to manage”; “I am tired of barely keeping my head above water”....Do you relate to any of these thoughts? Maybe similar ones? You don't have to address them alone and you don't have to feel stuck forever. I am in a position to help. Together, we can work to brighten the light at the end of the tunnel by making the change you are looking for achievable. Whatever the situation is, we can collaborate to find working solutions for you based on your needs.

I have experience in helping clients in a wide range of ages navigate the challenges of anxiety, depression, life transitions, trauma, body image, substance use, and stress management. I aim to build a strong therapeutic relationship with you before diving head first into the hard stuff, so you'll feel that you've established a safe space where you have autonomy in how therapy works for you.

Libby is a Licensed Professional Counselor, who has been practicing since 2016. She graduated from Denver Seminary with a Masters in Clinical Mental Health Counseling, and a certificate in School Counseling. Libby believes in a person-centered approach, which is a philosophy that focuses on creating a safe therapeutic space built on respect, compassion, and empathy. Libby operates from the understanding that each client is unique, and the expert of their own story, and aims to give every client the space to voice their own thoughts and feelings authentically and without judgement.

Do you find yourself feeling lost and frustrated with your life? Distress often arises when we are unable to show up authentically or when we are experiencing difficulty with change. Therapy can help you show up for yourself so you can be present for the important areas of your life.

“I feel like I’m just surviving instead of thriving” ... “I feel like difficult experiences in my past are holding me back from being fully myself”... “It feels selfish to take care of myself" ... “I feel like I’m under so much pressure” ... It doesn't have to stay this way! I am here to walk with you through this difficult time and I want to help you create more balance, authenticity, and joy in your life.

I use a combination of EMDR and IFS, Internal Family Systems, guided meditation and relaxation techniques to help clients explore their feelings and needs so they can find the happiness they desire. Both EMDR and IFS are evidence-based, transformative therapies for treating trauma, anxiety, depression, PTSD, and substance abuse. Rooted in neuroscience, these approaches allow clients to access inner resources and self-compassion for healing emotional wounding at its core. I teach clients a new way to identify with their "wise, healthy self", separating the person from the symptom, so they can heal.

“I cannot focus and my thoughts are racing 24/7” “I feel so alone and lost” “I want to grow up to be the person that I want to be, but don’t know how” If these are things that have crossed your mind. We might be a great fit. I want to be here for you. I work with children, teens, and adults. I have worked with children and adults with autism, queer youth and adults, and in any of my work, I bring in elements and connectiveness of the natural world.

Are you struggling with life changes or having trouble overcoming things from your past? Therapy can be a great start in overcoming these challenges. I believe in not only providing relief in the short-term but helping you with skills to prepare you for the obstacles that are to come. I find it important for my clients to have a space where they can feel safe, seen, and heard to help work on wounds from our past to take on any challenges we may face ahead.

Life can be unpredictable, and the expectations of society overwhelming. If you feel that you are not enough or alone, I am here for you. My work with others is collaborative, strengths-based, and emotion-focused.

“I am constantly stuck in negative thoughts”... “I have difficulty making sense or finding my purpose in life”... “It feels like my thoughts and emotions control my life”... “I often do not feel good enough”... “I worry about what others think”... I have walked with others in their journey with depression, anxiety, emotional regulation, trauma, work/life balance, and other important areas of life. I believe that everyone has the potential within themselves to live as their authentic selves. My past clients would describe me as supportive and caring.

Do you feel like you don't really know who you are? Do you struggle with finding purpose and meaning in life? Does your trauma interfere with your aspirations? If you can relate to any of these statements, I am here to help. I understand that asking for help is difficult. Sometimes we need someone who truly wants to listen and be there for us. I believe that having someone in your corner to both validate and challenge you is essential to personal growth. I will help guide you through this process of self-discovery- piecing together the mosaic of your life in a way that can serve as a window to your past and a guide to your future.

Are the constant stressors of life wearing down on you? Have you lost motivation to do the things that once brought you joy? Do you find yourself isolating from your support system? Are you blaming yourself for feeling this way? You are not broken and have so much magic inside of you waiting to come back to the surface. Let's talk!

Do you feel lost or stuck in your life? Do you often feel unheard or misunderstood by others or within your relationships? Are you worried that your efforts are not enough? I see you and I am here for you. Life can feel overwhelming even if you are doing “all the right things”. I am here to meet you wherever you are in your unique journey. My goal is to walk beside you and collaboratively work with you to meet your therapeutic goals.

Are you caught in an emotional tug-of-war, feeling like an outsider in your own life? Have you lost your sense of home and belonging? You don’t have to navigate these challenges alone. Unsure of where to begin? Let me be there for you. Together, we'll craft a safe and nurturing environment where you can freely explore your thoughts and emotions. As your partner in this journey, I am committed to your well-being and dedicated to helping you find relief.
