Mindfulness-Based (MBCT) Therapists in Colorado Springs, CO

Are you tired of being exhausted with worry, depression and lack of direction? Maybe you've made mistakes that are leaving you bogged down by self-defeat, doubt? And as a result, are you fed up? Like you just can't take another minute of it. If either of these is true, you are our specialty. We thrive working with families (and anyone else) suffering with self-destructive behaviors, anxiety, addictions, trauma, grief or loss. After working with us, people usually begin to embrace their shortcomings and rediscover their dreams.

I am passionate about holding the space for clients to find their path to their best selves. Life can be filled with so many challenges that are unexpected: becoming a parent, experiencing grief or trauma, or having had struggles as a child with your parents. When working with clients, I use the skills and knowledge that I have honed over the last 20 years which enables me to provide a vast toolbox to support the health and wellness of each person. Areas of specialty are birth trauma, perinatal work of all kinds, adjustment, loss, and trauma. I offer EMDR and perinatal consultations to other professionals.

If you’re reading this and considering counseling, there’s a part of you that’s searching for healing, wholeness, meaning, and joy, and I want to help you find it. I work with adult individuals using IFS, EMDR, guided imagery, and experiential and somatic therapies to help people heal from experiences like abuse, neglect, spiritual/religious or cult trauma, unwanted or compulsive sexual behaviors, depression, and codependency. I enjoy working with young adults, creatives, geeks and gamers, intuitive people who want to go beyond the black-and-white, and overthinkers of every variety!

Whatever you're going through right now, it's not going to defeat you! Life is full of change and challenges: trauma, depression, anxiety, job stress, school, finding work, parenting stress, relationship drama. The comfort of a nonjudgmental, accepting person and some wise interventions and advice can work wonders. I am the owner and director of Radiance Mental Wellness, where we provide targeted, effective therapy to help you heal and change your life for the better. - - Call, Text, or Email Us Today! - -

Taking the first step to begin therapy can feel overwhelming. Welcome! I am glad you are here.

Self-doubt. Overwhelm. Hopelessness. The fears and limiting messages of past traumas. Feeling disconnected from our partners, as if we speak different languages. Inability to relax and feel at peace. Does any of this sound familiar? These are some of the issues that clients have brought to me over the years in my practice. And I’ve been honored, humbled, and truly gratified to share and act as a guide in these journeys. I firmly believe that within each of us is the ability to find our voice, our self-empowerment, and our joy. I’d love to help you find yours.

I am a licensed professional counselor with a masters in counseling psychology. I have been working with individuals of all ages for 25 years. I believe that everyone deserves to feel good about themselves and live a life of meaning and purpose. I will spend time listening to you and will learn what is important to you. I will work with you to help you create the life that you want to live. You will learn how the relationships and choices you make influence your ability to live a life that fulfills you. We will create a trusting, authentic working relationship that will allow you to discuss all of the factors holding you back.

Four hours of sleep, 20 minutes late to work, and five espresso shots later…you’re day has started. And it’s come with a ton of anxiety and negative thoughts. The “fun” part? It doesn’t stop there - it bleeds into your day and evening - more tense moments with the kids, drinks to cope, and struggling to just BE. And sure, if this kind of day only happened here and there, that would be doable. But when it feels like this has been your usual for way too long…it sucks. And all you want…is some goddamn relief. Just to rest, to feel settled and at ease in your own body…your own life. And you can absolutely have this.

I treat individuals, couples, adults, and children that are dealing with substance abuse, relationship issues and a wide variety of other life challenges to include, mood disorders, sexual addictions, anxiety, depression, PTSD, and work-related issues. We'll look for short term solutions that help you cope, and long term solutions that help you understand.

It’s exhausting always waiting for the other shoe to drop. As an overthinking and overwhelmed professional, perfectionist, or people pleaser, you’re beyond tired of constantly reliving the past or worrying about the future. You have a good life, but you don't feel good, and you don't feel good enough. Even though you have a strong faith or sense of purpose, you stay in high anxiety, chronic worry, and feeling emotionally overwhelmed. You want to stop feeling like anxiety is controlling you and start feeling in control of anxiety, but instead you feel stuck in what-if and worst case scenario thinking that you don't know how to stop.

My approach to many issues we might face is that with a change in our mindset or normal path of thinking, we most likely have solutions to our concerns within ourselves. By changing our mindset or charting a new path we can find healing and peace. Sometimes we have to dig deep and look at situations from a different angle to see how we can take control and make the change we desire to achieve our best. I'm here to help you address areas where you feel like you could be struggling and discover new perspectives to help find a different path forward.

Are you or have you ever been in a season of life where you feel isolated, stuck, overwhelmed, or just not feeling your best? You are not alone! Everyone has struggles, whether that be in relationships, friendships, marriage, or family dynamics. Facing hardships in life is not uncommon and is something you should never face alone or be ashamed of. Thus, seeking help is not a sign of weakness but instead one of the bravest actions you can take as a human being!

My ideal client is seeking personal growth and self-discovery. They are driven to overcome challenges, gain clarity, and make positive changes in their life.

They are motivated to achieve these goals because they desire a sense of fulfillment, happiness, and a greater understanding of themselves and their place in the world.

Do you ever feel like the past is dragging around behind you, making it hard to move forward? While the past may shape you, it does not have to define you.

Getting through past traumas, whether they be big or small, can be a daunting task. As you navigate the various paths available to you in life, I can help you create your own map. Depression, anxiety, trouble adjusting to new life circumstances, and grief can all feel like stones in a backpack that drags you down. I can help you lighten the load.
