Do you and your partner feel stuck in painful patterns of conflict or distance? Do small disagreements escalate or never get resolved? Do you miss the closeness, safety, and warmth you once felt together? Relationship stress can affect every part of your life — from your ability to focus at work to how you parent and care for yourself. Studies even show that chronic relationship distress can harm your physical health. If any of this sounds familiar, you’re not alone. We all need to feel secure with our partner to thrive in love and in life.

I work with individuals and couples offering existential therapy to help you to live more fully and find new ways to face your predicaments, paradoxes and conflicts. Together we can explore your life and relationships to discover ways in which you can live more authentically, in alignment with your values. I trained and worked in England before moving to Boulder in 2010. I have over 20 years experience as a therapist; I bring that with me as I meet each new individual or couple. I will help you describe, clarify and unravel your relationship to the world, your self and other people. We do not have to start with your childhood.

Are you feeling stuck in patterns that no longer serve you? Maybe anxiety or OCD is keeping you from living your life in the way that you would most enjoy. Or perhaps you are challenged by losses or life transitions which are difficult to face alone. Having a safe place to express your thoughts and feelings can make a difference. It can open up a sense of freedom and belonging, where you can grow into a fuller expression of who you are and what you want your life to mean. I offer a warm, inviting and empowering space for you to explore what matters most to you.

My ideal clients recognize life as a journey of soul development, as an invitation not a burden. They're curious, contemplative, innately spiritual. They're already noticing the patterns in how they relate, in what keeps showing up, in the ways of being that no longer fit who they're becoming. They sense, too, that not everything they're carrying originated here and now. That some of it runs deeper, more ancient patterns, from their childhood, their lineage, their soul's longer story. Often awareness isn't enough- the knots need more than witnessing, together we can dive deeper, identify the root and create lasting change.

Ever feel like there is more to this life than the one you've been living? As someone who has felt the gravity and darkness of untapped potential I know what's it's like to be living a life we don't love. The clues are within the depression and/or anxiety - these are our body's brilliantly sane ways of saying "pay attention!" Anyone can have a life that is full of passion, richness, purpose, and they feel joyfully proud to be living. It will take vulnerability, bravery, sacrifices, and perhaps some help to get this life that you love. I'd be deeply honored to be the gentle and firm guide you need to help you create this life.

Do you want to shift negative patterns that are holding you back? Reduce anxiety and depression? Therapy is a relationship that allows for an exploration into the deepest realms of the self in a nurturing space where you can be honest and open. We create a language for the practice of self-discovery and integration in the spirt of mutual growth and recovery; this looks different for every person. I use many techniques: talk therapy, somatic, EMDR, KAP, Parts work, mindfulness, cognitive, relational and attachment work. I am a contemplative psychotherapist who works from an integral framework, utilizing a non-pathologic view.

After many years in the public school system as a teacher and school counselor, I decided to leave the school system and joined a growing private practice specializing in OCD and anxiety. There, I offered therapy services and led specialized groups for two and a half years. Recently, I decided to expand my services to the Fort Collins area and launch my own practice, with locations in both Boulder and Fort Collins. I have created and led several therapy groups including a grief group for adults, a support group for adolescents with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD), and anxiety groups for all ages.

Hoarding Therapists
What is the most effective treatment for hoarding?
Cognitive behavior therapy (CBT) has been well-studied in the treatment of hoarding. This type of therapy includes changing beliefs surrounding possessions, as well as learning how to discard items and reduce acquisitions. The hoarder may also gain much-needed organizational skills. Another useful therapy may be compassion-focused therapy, which can address emotion regulation and negative self-perception.

How long does therapy for hoarding take?
Although treatment can vary, most people demonstrate improvement after 23 sessions, with some showing improvement after just a few sessions. Researchers have developed a 26-session cognitive behavioral program. People who hoard may need “maintenance” sessions over the years if the problem arises repeatedly.

Are there medications for hoarding?
The more commonly-prescribed medications for hoarding are including antidepressants, including selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs), and serotonin-norepinephrine reuptake inhibitors (SNRIs). This can include drugs such as venlafaxine and paroxetine. And because hoarding disorder is related to obsessive-compulsive disorder, medications for OCD, such as clomipramine, may be effective for hoarding as well.

Can hoarding come back after treatment?
Hoarding is a chronic disorder and it can last throughout an individual’s lifetime. Regularly checking in with a psychotherapist can help manage symptoms long-term. A good therapist will help the person learn needed skills including decision-making, organization, and stress reduction. The patient will gain a better perspective and the need to cling to useless items will lessen.
