Is life what you thought it would be like, how it was “supposed to” be? Are you doing what you know you are supposed to, what you have been told is expected of you, yet your world is not improving? You still have choices, and you can make change happen. Often, our behaviors that interfere with achieving the life you deserve have protected your well-being or your relationship for many years. Whether it is trauma saturation, professional boundaries, intimacy avoidance, or unwanted addictive behaviors, you no longer have to react alone but can now respond with someone beside you.

I specialize in childhood trauma, inner-child work, spirituality, codependency, CBT, DBT, shadow work, narcissistic abuse, anxiety, depression, eating disorders, self-esteem, setting boundaries, and building effective communication skills.
For most of us, living a life without pain and suffering is the ultimate goal. Oftentimes, we try to change or control everything in our external environment to find peace and happiness within ourselves. We may change jobs, move to a new city, or seek out new relationships – only to find that our pain and suffering still exist. As a result, we feel hopeless or powerless over our lives and may resort to destructive behavioral patterns to cope with our emotions. Over time, we may realize that – no matter where we go, or what we do – we are always left facing ourselves.

We greet each other by asking "How are you?" and answer "great, good or fine". But how are you really? The definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results. If you are feeling stuck, anxious, or overwhelmed my desire is to help you identify and use your innate strength and internal resources to grow and overcome life circumstances that may feel too big to handle. I understand the challenges that individuals face in an often overwhelming world. I desire to journey alongside those of you who want change and direction in their life.

Moving through life is like a book. We are all in the process of composing our own stories. Sometimes we get stuck, due to choices, events or behaviors. This causes anxiety and depression. It’s like a bookmark getting stuck in the pages of our story and as we try to move forward, the pages fall open to that bookmarked, painful memory.

“No need to be ashamed of tears, for tears bore witness that a man had the greatest of courage, the courage to suffer” – Viktor Frankl. Sometimes we hide our pain or get stuck on the how of life; however, starting counseling is a courageous act on the path to finding the why. My why is to help the community that I grew up in with genuine compassion for each person who is struggling. People have always felt comfortable opening up to me, and I always find ways to help my community. Also, being a Colorado Springs native, I have always loved the outdoors and exploring its beauty.

Narcissistic Personality (NPD) Therapists
What type of therapy is best for narcissistic personality disorder?
Narcissistic personality disorder (NPD) is best treated with talk therapy, which could involve cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, schema therapy, gestalt therapy, or similar approaches. A therapist will help a patient uncover the feelings that may drive their behavior and discover how to engage with themselves and those around them with greater empathy and understanding, fewer demands, and less defensiveness, with the goal of developing a more authentic sense of self that enables healthier relationships.
How do therapists treat NPD?
By developing a strong therapeutic relationship, and continually focusing patients on relationships, community, and connection, a therapist, through talk therapy, may be able to help someone with NPD change. In sessions, a therapist will help an individual achieve relief from their current stressors, including the treatment of co-occurring conditions such as anxiety or depression. A therapist may also help an individual to recognize unhealthy coping mechanisms, learn new ways of interacting with others, and eventually become able to feel and display empathy.
Can a narcissist be cured with therapy?
Therapy can be effective. After a serious setback or great loss, someone with NPD may be forced to recognize that they are not immune to life’s challenges. That can spur feelings of melancholy and depression that lead them to seek professional help. Once an individual decides to seek help, they have already taken a step that the majority of those with NPD never will. Still, people with NPD often quit therapy as they naturally resist feeling vulnerable, being challenged, or admitting to flaws.
How can you get narcissistic personality disorder treatment for someone?
It is notoriously difficult to convince someone with NPD to seek help. With their feelings of superiority, they may be unlikely to recognize or acknowledge that they have a problem, or that their problem is narcissism. Sometimes, they are aware that they are arrogant and that others resent them but they don’t see it as a problem because they are convinced of their superiority. People with NPD have trouble maintaining relationships, but family members and others who do feel close to them, and whose presence they value, may be able to encourage them to seek therapy.
