Acceptance and Commitment (ACT) Therapists in Colorado Springs, CO
In working with clients, I hope to help individual's discover their uniqueness. However, over my 18 years of working with people as a psychologist, I have also come to appreciate the many similarities inherent in being a human being. Often people come to therapy because they feel, "Something is wrong with me." I have found it to be healing when a patient realizes, "Oh, that's a normal response," given what has happened. They can then be open to learn ways to work with their symptoms, to work on their goals, and to begin living a satisfying life with the ability to find the inherent joys, along with the challenges, in life.

Everyone has their own unique story, and what has happened in our past affects who we are and how we experience the world and relationships today. I believe that as humans, we are fundamentally relational, and relationships can both be the source of healing and the source of pain. Having a space to process the pain without judgment is essential for healing.

I prefer clients who are motivated and open-minded above all other qualities. I have experience working with people who have a number of varying challenges, such as trauma (all kinds), anxiety, depression, grief, family discord, communication challenges, transitions, and adjustments to significant changes. Most people have goals to feel better, to experience more joy and peace in their lives. Some have specific goals like completing a project, or test, remaining on task without anxiety, for example. Overall, anyone who seeks therapy desires help with some sort of change in their current moods, habits, or state of mind.

I work with adults who are navigating trauma, anxiety, depression, emotional overwhelm, and relationship stress, and who may also notice patterns of coping that feel difficult to change. I bring both LCSW and Licensed Addiction Counselor training to my work, which helps me understand how emotional pain, trauma, and coping strategies can interact. I work with clients who are ready to slow down, make sense of what is happening, and build something more stable and grounded.

I work with motivated adults and teens (16+) who are ready to engage in the work of therapy, who are not looking for quick fixes, and wanting a genuine thinking partner. Many come in navigating anxiety, OCD, relationship struggles, life transitions, religious trauma, or challenges with body image and food. They’ve often tried therapy before and want something deeper. Together, we focus on building a real, trusting relationship where you can be honest, feel understood, and start making sense of patterns so you can move forward with clarity.

You’ve survived things that were supposed to break you. Maybe you’ve been told to just pray harder, have more faith, or let it go — and somewhere along the way, you started wondering if you’re just too complicated to be helped.
You’re not.
I work with women, ministry leaders, and couples — and honestly, anyone carrying rejection, heartbreak, or spiritual wounds. If you want to integrate your faith into real healing but have been hurt by toxic theology along the way, you’re in the right place. You don’t have to choose between believing in God and getting actual help. Both belong in the room.

You might feel overwhelmed, disconnected, or stuck in patterns you can’t seem to change, even if you understand where they come from. On the outside, things may look fine, but internally something feels off.
I specialize in working with adults navigating anxiety, burnout, and the lasting effects of complex trauma. Many of my clients have a sense that something deeper is going on, even if they can’t fully name it. Together, we explore how past experiences may be shaping your current thoughts, emotions, and relationships.

Is it anxious rumination or an obsession? A tic or a compulsion? These differences are often misunderstood, but they can make a real difference in getting the right kind of help. I specialize in working with children, teens, and adults with OCD and tic disorders using ERP, I-CBT, and CBIT. Many of the people I work with have tried therapy before without the relief they were hoping for. I aim to provide clear, practical, and supportive treatment, with flexible session options to help make steady progress between appointments.

I have been married for 17 years and have 3 adult step children, a son-in-law and 3 grandchildren. I also have 2 cats that are important members of the family. Family is something I view to be a living entity, challenging at times, and have come value over the years. My life experiences have given me insight and perspectives that allow me to make unique connections with my clients. I learned that life is ever changing. I have come to realize that during times when we feel defeated, it does not mean we are unable to change the outcome or our quality of life in the future, nor, is it too late to create the life we do want.

I use Written Exposure Therapy, Cognitive Processing Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, and the Collaborative Assessment and Management of Suicidality to support mental health.
Your life looks polished on the outside, but inside your mind won’t turn off. You’re the one everyone relies on, always holding it together while carrying anxiety, pressure, and the feeling that you can’t slow down. You replay conversations, overthink small things, and push through exhaustion because rest feels uncomfortable or guilt-filled. Maybe depression shows up as burnout, numbness, or disconnection. I work with high-achieving individuals who are tired of living in overdrive. Together, we’ll untangle the patterns keeping you stuck so you can feel grounded, clear, and like yourself again without losing your ambition.
