When I moved to Colorado, I got more involved with Trauma and Anxiety.
I have been working in the mental health field for over 40 years. I started working in mental health facilities in my early 20's while I was in college. I have worked with adults and adolescents in all kinds of modalities, yet I seemed to focus more toward young people and their families with substance abuse problems and anxiety. Some of that stems from having to deal with my own addictions in my late teens and finally getting clean and sober at age 20. Thus, I understand what it is like to be overwhelmed by addiction and the need to engage in a recovery process.

My focus is adults who continue to be impacted by childhood trauma.

Whether you're navigating trauma, chronic pain, or relationship struggles, we’ll work together to help you show up in the present with more safety, choice, and self-trust.
