Asperger's Syndrome Therapists in CBD, Denver, CO

Currently accepting new online clients! Are you needing help with managing and processing depression, anxiety, and/or ADHD issues? I'm a Licensed Professional Counselor with experience in working alongside adults and young adults in intensive, group, and individual settings. We all need a safe space to explore and better understand ourselves and to learn practical and insightful tools for managing life along the way. Therapy can be this space where work can be done and growth can occur.

Does it feel like you’re struggling to thrive in a world that just wasn’t built for you? We autistic folks know this feeling all too well, and how especially hard it hits when you’re feeling lonely, depressed, anxious, lost, or just completely overwhelmed. Whether you’re just trying to keep your head above water every day or trying to emerge into a new stage of your life, you don’t need to do it all alone. While I specialize in working with autistic adults, these feelings can resonate with folks from all sorts of backgrounds, and I welcome you too. Let’s walk this journey together.

The world has become a stressful place and while it has always been stressful, we have less community and connection. These times have really put a strain on us as individuals, our relationships, our families, our jobs/school and created overwork, stress, and trauma. Honestly, doing healthy relationship and navigating stress and trauma are not skills we have been equipped with. Therapy has become the space to learn those skills, navigate stress, do self care, live presently in life, and process the trauma that's historical and present in our day to day.

I am a licensed psychologist at Wolff Child Psychology providing neurodevelopmental and neuropsychological assessments for children from infancy to adolescence. I specialize in the assessment and diagnosis of difficulties in children born prematurely, children with genetic or medical concerns, children with suspected autism spectrum disorders and children with suspected developmental delays.

I help folks identify, access, and more effectively use their strengths and resilience - even under incredibly difficult and complex circumstances. Clients come to my practice to find alternatives to patterns and behaviors that are no longer working, to heal from traumas, explore identity, navigate transitions, and get unstuck. I work with teens, young adults, and adults who want real change, more support, effective boundaries, and honest connection in their lives using a social justice counseling framework that is client-defined, trauma-informed and strengths-based.

Many parents/caregivers have questions regarding their child’s development, behavior, or academic performance, while others are seeking guidance and support. Some parents/caregivers are referred by a teacher, pediatrician, medical specialist, or psychotherapist, but are uncertain as to why their child needs a neuropsychological evaluation. Regardless of what brought your family to our practice, feel comfort in knowing that you have come to the right place and that our team is dedicated to helping you reach your goals.

Are you someone who wants to explore your own depths, to better understand why you act the way you do, to break old patterns & work towards being your best self? Do you have concerns about managing anxiety, your career, your relationships, or life transitions that can feel overwhelming? If you are someone who would like to learn tools you can use to promote your overall wellness, build your sense of self-esteem, and grow, therapy is a great way to accomplish all this and more. By reading this & looking for someone to talk to, you have taken the first step in your own self-growth and that is something you should be proud of yourself.

Guiding you toward growth and healing, I'm a mental health therapist experienced in supporting teens and adults through challenges like anxiety, depression, neurodivergence, and life transitions. Whether it's navigating relationships, building self-esteem, or exploring identity, I use a collaborative approach tailored to your needs.

Counseling gives you an opportunity to express yourself with an enlightened witness: an ethical professional who listens carefully, and with acceptance and positive regard, and with the intention of promoting your wellbeing through insights, associations, and skills building. Ideal clients are those who want to understand what lies beneath symptoms of anxiety, depression, or other mental health diagnoses to examine your personal triggers for nervous system dysregulation. The source of your angst may include past trauma, neurodevelopmental disorders (Autism, ADHD, etc.) or physical health conditions, and often, all three.
