Codependency Therapists in Buena Vista, CO
Healing often begins quietly, with the simple hope that life can feel different. If the weight of past experiences has made the world feel overwhelming, painful, or even numb, I want you to know that you do not have to face it alone; I want you to know you are worthy of a space where you are met with compassion and non-judgement. As an LPCC, I am passionate about helping individuals to understand, connect with, and nurture their nervous systems, ultimately supporting them to heal from past wounds, break patterns that no longer serve them, and engage with the world with curiosity, resilience, and clarity.

Many of us move through life carrying stories that were never fully processed — experiences of loss, trauma, disconnection, or relationships that left us feeling unseen. I aim to create an inviting space where we can gently explore and honor these stories together.
My approach to healing is integrative, spiritual, and deeply relational. I draw from somatic practices, attachment theory, and evidence-based psychotherapy to help clients explore the convergence between mind, body, and soul. I believe that meaningful change often happens through compassionate awareness of our emotions, patterned behavior, and our lived experiences.

I support individuals who are trying to find purpose, meaning and hope in a world filled with hurt and pain. Together, we'll explore the old messages and patterns that may be weighing you down, helping you find a deeper understanding of yourself and the people around you. Processing pain can be incredibly difficult. Showing the messy parts of yourself requires remarkable vulnerability. More than anything I hope to create a space where you feel valued, safe and understood.

You say yes before you’ve had time to think—then later feel exhausted, resentful, replaying the moment and wondering if it was your fault. Living on high alert, trying to keep everyone else comfortable, is draining. Trauma, grief, and ADHD can make it hard to slow down or trust your needs. You may be carrying the loss of someone important while still being the one others rely on. The pressure to stay strong or “move on” can leave you feeling overwhelmed, unseen, and stuck. You might notice racing thoughts, emotional swings, trouble focusing, or waves of grief that appear at unexpected moments.

Not accepting new clients
I am not currently taking new clients for regular therapy. My practice is focused on psychedelic work and EMDR intensives.
Many of my clients are insightful and self-aware, yet notice that understanding their patterns hasn’t always led to the change they’re looking for. This work tends to be a good fit for people who are open to depth and process-oriented methods rather than short-term or solution-focused therapy. This work is not a one-size-fits-all approach.

Many of the people I work with appear successful and resilient on the outside but struggle with anxiety, trauma, relationship challenges, addiction, shame, or feeling disconnected from themselves. Others find themselves repeating patterns in relationships, work, or recovery despite wanting change. Together, we explore how past experiences, attachment patterns, and survival strategies may be shaping the present. Through a compassionate, collaborative, and trauma-informed approach, I help clients build self-awareness, emotional resilience, and a stronger connection to what matters most.

What therapy types help with codependency problems?
Both couples and family therapy and cognitive and behavioral therapy (CBT) can help with the relationship difficulties referred to as codependency. Such problems typically include inappropriate feelings of responsibility for a loved one’s destructive behavior, irrational patterns of thinking about such behavior, and family interaction patterns in which the needs of one troubled member override the needs of others in a household.
What happens in therapy for codependency?
Spouses and family members learn and practice how to interact and support each other in a healthy way without sacrificing their own needs or well-being. They learn the limits of their responsibility for their loved ones and correct faulty patterns of thinking and feeling that underlie codependent behavior. Individuals may be encouraged to nurture an array of social relationships and to cultivate their own talents and interests so that they develop a healthy sense of self outside the family.
How does therapy help a person or couple overcome codependency?
Therapy helps people establish healthy ways of being in a relationship. Spouses and family members learn how to nurture and support one another without sacrificing their own needs or allowing the needs of one person to dominate the dynamic. Individuals learn how to say no and set boundaries, and how to maintain their own identity and self-esteem. Therapy helps people understand that they are not responsible for the feelings and actions of others. It also helps individuals deal with the turbulence that can come from living with a person suffering from such conditions as substance abuse and mental illness.
What is the goal of therapy for codependency?
One goal of therapy for codependency is to alleviate feelings of responsibility for and correct irrational patterns of thinking about loved ones whose behavioral problems override the needs of others in a household. Therapy helps people establish healthy boundaries of behavior and speak up for their own needs in a relationship. In addition, people learn how to maintain a healthy relationship, one in which both parties give and receive equally and are able to retain their own identity.
