Therapists in Denver, CO

I work with adults navigating anxiety, depression, identity exploration, emotion regulation, relationship issues, and the impact of oppressive systems. I am a somatic (body-based) therapist dedicated to creating an affirming space for you to bring your full self to therapy and be met with genuine compassion and care. I work with you from a collaborative, strengths-based, trauma-informed approach to support you in moving in the direction you hope to go in life. My approach is holistic and recognizes the importance of mind-body connection in healing and growth.

Do you feel stuck? Do you feel like you know all the rules and what you are “supposed to do” but somehow can’t get where you want to go? As your therapist, my goal is to help you feel at home in your body, mind, and heart. I can help deconstruct and shift your “shoulds” into something that feels more authentic and meaningful to you. We also can dig into your past and explore how old coping mechanisms that may have helped at one time are now limiting. I am trained in a myriad of techniques—including mindfulness and EMDR—to gently guide your mind and body back to the present moment to a state of well-being and resiliency.

You have felt pressure your whole life. Maybe it was pressure from your family: pressure to succeed, a parent’s expectations to live up to, a family culture where you never felt good enough, or pressure to be someone you were not. Or maybe you have put pressure on yourself: to make others happy (often sacrificing your own happiness), to never let others down, to always excel and achieve, or to not take up too much space in the world. You’re exhausted and you wish you could just turn off the noise in your head: the self-criticism, worry, and the uncertainty. You want to feel free to live life on your terms and to just be who you are.
