Therapists in Snowmass, CO

I specialize in working with people who are seeking health and wholeness in their lives and relationships. I am deeply passionate about helping people navigate through what is getting in the way of living their best life. Whether it be anxiety, depression, life transition, or just a general funk, I’ll help you journey towards healing as you overcome the challenges that are inhibiting you from living a fulfilling and meaningful life.

Therapy is a choice you make to support your personal growth, strengthen your mental health and define and work towards life goals. Every person has seasons of life where they struggle and this is an ideal time to work with a therapist. My clients are often feeling depressed or anxious when they start therapy and together we work to find a path that allows them to overcome challenges by developing skills and deepening understanding of who they are, how they came to be the person they are and who they want to become as they reach towards a happier version of themselves.

My clients seek deeper self-awareness, growth and lasting healing. Perhaps you have reached a point where you struggle with old thought patterns or habits, and you desire genuine change. You are looking for someone who can assist you in helping yourself, with the goal of becoming self-empowered and renewed.

I obtained by Bachelor of Science degree from Huntington University with a degree in Exercise Science a little over 9 years ago. After several internships in the field, the mind-body connection captivated me. Seeking to bridge the gap in my understanding of this intriguing connection, I obtained my Master of Arts in Professional Counseling and have been working in this incredible field ever since. I am trained in both Narrative Exposure Therapy and Inner Child Work for treating complex trauma and in Integrative Mental Health for treating people from a wholistic perspective.

I am honored to work with you through dynamic trauma in your life to see the other side using intensive EMDR. Invest in 3 to 5 full days with me and get your life back, looking at your progress and saying "wow! I did that". Let's get started today! Half-day, 90-minute, or hourly sessions are available as well.

If you want closer relationships with your partner, family members, and friends I can help with couples and family counseling. If you are willing to dig into the cause of relational distance to become unstuck, we can move toward connection together. If you want hope and a path to healing divisions and family issues I want to help you achieve peace. I desire your relationships to give you better well-being and security. My practice primarily serves romantic relationships and families.

Most people muddle their way through life doing the best they can with the limited information and tools they grew up with. How might life be different if a person took the initiative to understand what they want out of life and relationships, and then develop the healthy habits and tools they need to cultivate that life? It is never too late to change your trajectory by deliberately curating healthy life habits and genuine, well-connected relationships. Imagine growing something healthy and productive out of the ashes of trauma, or cultivating genuine relational connection out of conflict and loneliness.

It's time to think about yourself differently. I'm not exactly the touchy feely kind of therapist and won't ask "how does that make you feel" every 5 minutes. I help you get significant, lasting change, not just to feel good talking. I work with individual, couples and families. It's your thoughts and beliefs that cause your problems. If you want change in marriage, trauma, anxiety, depression, anger or even drug/alcohol use, we have to change the way you think about yourself, both individually and within your relationships. When we fix that, everything else falls in line.

I strongly believe in the power and importance of the therapeutic relationship between me and my clients. There is nothing more important to me than building trust and safety so that you feel comfortable opening up about what is happening in your life. I am very laid back and use an informal style that feels much more collaborative than authoritative. I am on the journey with you!

I have a passion for working with children and teens, ages 5-17 around school issues, as well as family issues, including depression, anxiety, and divorce. I also enjoy working with adults that have experienced childhood and adult trauma, .

I have been practicing therapy for over 14 years and I am passionate about supporting my clients in their personal growth. I use a person - centered approach while exploring the past and present and challenging distorted negative cognitions when appropriate. The decision to enter therapy is not an easy one and my goal is to offer support in a safe and compassionate space. I am trained in Cognitive Behavior Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing and Somatic Experiencing. These training provide me with a wide variety of tools/skills to offer my clients.

Young adults navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, and self esteem issues and wish to get to the root of their struggles, who also desire a warm and person-first approach will feel comfortable in my office.

Anxious? Depressed? Overwhelmed? Stuck? Life is difficult. We all suffer. But you do not have to walk this path alone. I am so glad you are taking this courageous step! I want to offer you the right support where you can be seen, heard, and understood. Are you tired of waking up dreading the day or thinking there must be more to life than this? Does your mind swirl with negative self-depreciating thoughts or does your anxiety spiral out of control? Maybe you wake up feeling like a black cloud is hanging over your life? Do you have trauma that is disrupting your life and relationships? Do you have the same fights with your partner?

Are you feeling overwhelmed with daily tasks or feel like everyday is just like the last? Do you question what your purpose is or do you worry about what life will bring next? Are you stuck in the past or worry too much about the future? Have you suffered loss that you can’t quite get over? I am passionate about helping people become empowered to live their best lives possible. By encouraging self-awareness, I assist in helping my clients make choices that align with their personal value system.

Most of us are looking for peace, with ourselves, in relationships and as we move through our world. In cultivating peace, we may seek relief from difficult emotions or may need support working through a loss or traumatic experience. Whether you are looking to manage depressive symptoms or anxiety, or you desire to cultivate a deeper relationship with yourself and others, knowing our own truth is key. The answer is in each of us; we may just need a little guidance in finding it. I deeply love the work of meeting people where they are and guiding & creatively companioning them into work that enables a richer, more peaceful life.
