Brainspotting Therapists in Boulder, CO
I help people create lasting change, by weaving Internal Family Systems, trauma therapies EMDR and Brainspotting, body-centered and mindfulness skills, Creative/Expressive Arts, Dance Therapy and Neoshamanic practices, during sessions to facilitate healing and integration.
As a seasoned psychotherapist/life coach, I believe in our innate healing potential and guide my clients to unlock their internal wisdom, resilience and resources for healing. Somatic (body-centered), mindfulness-based approaches to holistic coaching and therapy, allow me to integrate my clinical training while tuning into intuition to effectively guide the unfolding healing process of my clients. Trauma-informed, holistic coaching and therapy allows for greater capacity to rewire the brain, which can make the unconscious conscious and shift your automatic reactive patterns and outdated beliefs, helping you to live your best life.

Overwhelm washes over you when the world feels confusing and chaotic. Life challenges begin stacking up and complexity becomes too much. You can see your patterns but have no idea how to free yourself. You tried talk therapy and it helped a little but something is still missing. You know there's got to be something different out there.

Waitlist for new clients
I am a certified Brainspotting therapist, a trauma-informed modality similar to EMDR, and I am trained in DBT (Dialectical Behavioral Therapy) and CBT (Cognitive Behavioral Therapy).
We all need connection and understanding, a safe place where we don't feel alone. I use a mindfulness-based based approach to support clients through life transitions, loss, anxiety, depression and PTSD. I support both neurotypical and neurodivergent clients with Autism, ADHD and other gifts and challenges. I have worked at settings including Mental Health Partners and Boulder Integrated Health/AIM House, helping clients find relief from flashbacks, rumination and sleep disturbances. It is my goal to help clients envision their best life and rewire patterns and perspectives that are holding them back.

Sometimes in life, our ability to cope is no longer sufficient to get us through challenges or even day-to-day. This can leave us feeling anxious, depressed, and at times, out of control. We might notice ourselves experiencing struggles with self-care, sleep, relationships, self-esteem, health, and sometimes, turning to unhealthy habits to feel better. Therapy with me can help you regain control in your life, address past wounds, develop healthier coping skills, build resilience and heal.

Couples Counseling: Something has shifted in your relationship — and you can feel it. Maybe the two of you have drifted apart, or conversations keep turning into arguments no matter how hard you try. Perhaps trust has been broken and you're not sure if the relationship can survive it. Whatever brought you here, the fact that you're looking means some part of you still believes things can be different.
For the past 25+ years, I've seen partners find their way back to each other from some very painful places. What makes that possible is understanding where problems are really coming from and finding solutions that honor both of you.

Being a human in the world is both an inherently beautiful and painful process. Grief, loss and trauma shape the ways that we approach our daily lives, and sometimes the pain that accompanies these experiences becomes more than anyone can manage on their own. We develop coping strategies in an effort to safely navigate the world, and occasionally these coping strategies become problematic or no longer work for us. Change can be hard and it can be scary, but it can also be exciting and fulfilling; my hope is to help create space to access the range of experiences that arise through the therapeutic process.
