Positive Psychology Therapists in Aspen, CO

When life presents challenges that are too difficult to overcome on your own, I offer a safe, non-judgmental space to explore and express your emotions. Working together, you and I will reveal your existing strengths and develop them into viable coping skills to overcome these challenges. I have personal experience, as a parent and a daughter, in dealing with the challenges of physical and mental disabilities. I have lived and worked in various regions of the United States and abroad thus I understand the feelings of isolation and uncertainty that can surface when in a new environment, situation, or even in every day circumstances.

Parenting, relationships, anxiety, depression, addictions, motivation, shyness and aging parents are some of the area's we can improve. Sometimes, we just need someone to talk to. "With over 40 years of professional experience traveling the world, teaching courses and trainings in personal growth and psychotherapy, I've learned a number of techniques and together we can learn what works best for you to make the changes you want."

Do you and your partner love each other, but you're not lining up when it comes to sex and intimacy? If sex has become one more thing to cross off the To Do List . . . if one of you has a way lower drive than the other . . . or just wants more passion in your love life . . . reach out and let's talk! When left unchecked, sexual issues can become the elephant in the room and can even lead to the end of the relationship. I know this from personal experience! But, there is so much you can do to diagnose the real issues and get you back on the right track. Sometimes you just need a guide who has been down that road before.

I have found that in therapy, the individual has the opportunity to become more mindful and self aware, which can better serve the person to live more deeply, with more knowledge, and with more happiness. In therapy, the client has the potential to access the wisdom of psyche, from which the individual can achieve positive changes in his or her life. Through being aware of patterns and habits of one's past, the client can make transformations in order to be more mindful through one's life.

You are feeling anxious about many aspects of your life. You are resisting change and you don’t know where to begin to feel better. In this place and time, you face challenges that very often include the need for change. You want to examine how to make changes that reflect who you are and what you want to achieve. Yet You don’t know how to escape your stress from all the demands you face in your life, and the feelings of sadness and emptiness prevail. You want to make better choices that lead you to a life filled with more happiness and joy. You want to use your mind for better health and well-being. Let us take a gentle walk through the territory of integration of mind, body, spirit and emotions for your optimal health. In times of uncertainty and change, it’s imperative to examine each of these pieces of your wholeness and discover what transformative decisions you want to make to achieve a balance and wholeness in your life. Your desire is to rise above life’s challenges with courage, hope and humor will lead you to a better way. Your most difficult challenges can reap unexpected benefits when you choose to develop a healthy attitude.

Cultivating joy and healthy habits requires creating a consistent space to practice and learn new ways of being. Did you know your mind is more wired to produce anxiety and depression than joy? There is nothing wrong with you! You just didn't learn the skills that generate more joy, calm and acceptance; this is what leads to long-term fulfillment and happiness. Burnout, abandoning your dreams, anxiety, overwhelm, feeling lost, an extra glass of wine-all can lead to a vicious cycle of not feeling good. I can help you break that cycle. Integrating the body, breath practices, and neuroscience into therapy helps bring lasting changes.

Non judgement and unconditional acceptance are the cornerstones of my practice. My strength is looking at each client's issues as opportunities for learning. Body centered education, teaching how emotional feelings become feelings in the body, is emphasized. Learning from my client's current awareness is the goal in any session. My work is non-religious but spiritual. My intention is to have each client lose the need for ongoing therapy. I have been successful in helping hundreds of individuals. I see adults, teens, couples and groups. I have offered Equine assisted therapy as an adjunct to my practice since 1999.

Relationships are a constant in our lives, and the relationship with oneself is central to them all. Relationship dissatisfaction and a desire for positive change is what leads people to my office. I frequently work with individuals and couples who are separating, and/or divorcing and are concerned about the well-being of their children in the midst of significant family change. My clients are often high achievers who are interested in navigating relational changes and co-parenting with skill, integrity and mutuality. I welcome the opportunity to support you in creating the future you desire.

I love working with people. I tend to be a really good listener, love to brainstorm, and am somewhat directive. I am very practical and real. I enjoy very much hearing and working to understand situations and patterns in a person's life, where are they repeating themselves, and how many ways are there to break up patterns that are not serving us. I am keen to see habits and places that shut us down, and like to work on and practice how that may shift, with much compassion on how scary that can be. I appreciate the vulnerability it takes to come in and share intimate and hard details about ourselves.

I also provide supervision for pre-licensed MFTs as well as consultation services for both licensed and unlicensed therapists.
