Therapists in Uptown, Denver, CO
I grew up in Chicago where I studied Psychology and Philosophy at DePaul University. It was here that I fell in love with diversity, culture, and sport. This passion took me on adventures around the world to many countries where I continued to grow outside of my comfort zones. Eventually the traveling brought me to CO where I completed my MA in Clinical Mental Health Counseling at Colorado Christian University. Since then I have enjoyed adding diversity to my clinical skills by working in various outpatient and inpatient counseling settings.

Everyone in their life faces conflict at some point, and I believe that when conflict is handled healthily it can foster meaningful change. Whether the conflict is within yourself, a relationship, or a major decision, having support can make these difficult times more manageable. Together, we can learn how to face those conflicts in a healthy, nonjudgmental, and curious way.

There are times in all of our lives that we need someone to talk to. Counseling can be a powerful resource in dealing with past hurts, trauma's, processing important life decisions, relationships and so much more. No matter what it is, you deserve to have someone walk with you in the journey of life. It is my belief that we are made up of mind, body and spirit and that we all desire to move towards being the best version of ourselves.

* I am no longer accepting new clients* I believe the most profound change occurs within relationships. Whether that be the therapeutic relationship, a relationship with yourself, a partner, parent, child, or family member, relationships in all their forms have the ability to foster new ways we see and interact with ourselves and others. While relationships impact us, they do not define us. Each individual carries the strength within them to make the change they wish to see.
