Therapists in Telluride, CO

Are you frequently anxious, depressed, stressed or feel lost? Are you tired of trying so hard but not getting the results you want and need? Do you feel you are not reaching your potential? I have a 'virtual office' and you can explore your personal or professional challenges from the comfort of your home, office or car! I have over 25 years of training and practical experience to help you, your children and/or your family. I use a gentle (and even fun) approach to coaching and therapy that feels easier for most people to deal with than traditional therapy. My clients do better when they know better! I can be that guide for you.

My role is to act as a guide toward discovering and developing resources to manage the complex issues occurring in life. We will explore strengths and develop skills for you to decrease discomfort and disturbances from trauma, grief, physical and sexual assault, anxiety, depression, disordered mood or thoughts. I will provide a space for compassion and empowerment to navigate a different path.

I enjoy what I do and helping people figure out what they want and where they want to be — or get through what they have to! My clients tell me they've appreciate that I "don't give up" on people and I put energy and focus in our work because I want to see you get better. Some people know exactly what they want - anxiety management skills or how to cope with depression or trauma. Some people know that something isn't right but they're not sure where to start. The question is what do you want to change about your life - what's not working now. I’m ND affirmative, nonjudgmental, and see couples in all types of relationships

Most couples don't get married thinking they will need to see a couples therapist. Maybe your relationship isn't following the course you had planned or imagined & you are experiencing a roller coaster of emotions, feeling: frustrated, helpless, hopeless, angry, sad, anxious, resentful guilty, shame or maybe you are numb. Maybe you are wishing your partner would HEAR you, UNDERSTAND you & CHANGE! Maybe there has been an emotional or physical infidelity in your relationship. Most couples therapy clients come to therapy sad because the relationship was so good in the beginning & feel as if they can't communicate anymore.
