I’m a licensed professional counselor committed to helping people learn how to navigate the difficulties life throws us at times. I believe in taking a collaborative approach to helping clients reach their goals. I work with clients 14 and up, struggling with depression, anxiety disorders, and eating disorders.

Deciding whether or not to seek counseling can resemble a root canal I once had - embarrassment about not brushing properly, pain of the procedure, and the cost all made me wonder if it was worth it. Counseling can seem like this. If you're like me, though, you may also feel stuck or hopeless as problems come up again and again. Will anything really change? Life just is not supposed to be like this... Let me say, you are not alone and there is so much hope!

Difficult relationships are something that almost everyone has to deal with at some point in their lives. However, it is how a person deals with that relationship that counts. I help individuals learn how to manage relationship issues in a healthy manner, and try to help them recognize and stop destructive patterns. I do this by helping my clients identify the core of their relationship issues. Many people have not yet healed from childhood wounds and traumas, and these things are causing them to be attracted to difficult people or even causing them to sabotage their own otherwise good relationships.

Just as the body has the ability to heal physically, the mind can also heal from psychological trauma. I believe that every single person has a powerful story, and I take pride in providing a safe, calm environment where you are empowered to share, and heal from your story. If you are struggling with Trauma, PTSD, Grief, depression, anxiety, or would like to speak to someone in a unbiased, nonjudgemental environment, give me a call or email me for appointment availability. I do offer evening appointments as well as phone or video conferencing appointments.

Are you newly secular? Did you leave a religion or are you in the process of doing so? You've been considering therapy for a long time, but still, you hesitate. It can be challenging to move forward and you sometimes feel haunted by the fears and dogma that were previously a part of your daily life. Whether or not you consider what you are experiencing as religious trauma, you want to make sure you find a therapist who won't make you feel guilty for leaving your former religion. You've got this nightmare scenario of finally finding a new therapist- only to end up ducking religious vocabulary, feeling judged, or defending yourself.

Life can be meaningful and exciting, but circumstances and choices often cause problems that seem so complex there appears no way out. Though most people know deep down what they need, it sometimes takes another person to help them figure out what steps to take.

Trauma is an interesting part of life, you are not expecting it, and you barely understand it. Now you are forced to deal with it. Or even to deal with many other Mental Health issues. I have experienced enough trauma, Grief and Loss, sadness, and Depression to last a lifetime, from childhood issues to adult issues. However, I had to build a team; you would call this team a support system, much like what you are doing by reading my profile. You want to build your (Team) Support system, and you are not alone. It is easy to fight your battles alone and to suffer in silence. I want you to know that you do not have to.

For those who struggle with chronic problems such as physical ailments and disabilities, mental illness, or substance use, life can be quite daunting and difficult to manage. Complex trauma histories that come from life experiences resulting from medical care, relational interactions, or even natural disaster can make life even more challenging. I wish to assist you in navigating your experiences through compassionate guidance while helping you see hope in what is and what can be.

“The creation of something new is not accomplished by the intellect but by the play instinct.”- Carl Jung. As a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT), I work with all ages. I have worked with children and families for over 20 years, and my greatest joy is found in being a “helper.” Registered Play Therapist means that I have a specialty in play therapy. While this specialty equips me in a unique way to work with children and adolescents, I believe that play helps us to see our way through life's problems with fresh eyes. It's common for me to incorporate some playfulness in all my work with families and individuals.

Are you tried of feeling like you don’t have any control in life? Are you tired of worrying and anticipating the worse? Sexual abuse, domestic abuse, and other traumatic experiences impact us for a lifetime. The experience often leaves us feeling confused, doubtful, anxious, sad, and worthless. These traumatic experiences can shake the very core of our being, impact our relationships, and make us wonder how to move on and live fulfilling lives. Sometimes these horrible things make us feel lost and stuck in life.

I work with adults in the Colorado Springs and surrounding area and specialize in Internal Family Systems therapy and art therapy.
