Therapists in Denver, CO

I help clients see that change and growth are an inside job. When people feel unhappy they often look to other people, career, money and substances to make them feel better. This doesn't work long-term and only creates dependencies that harm them. For many, struggles are rooted in childhood experiences with less than ideal parenting and attachment patterns. Helping my clients to resolve and move past family of origin wounds, identify and eliminate destructive beliefs from their childhood and the behavior created from these beliefs, allows clients the ability to embrace their own lives and opens the door into joy & personal freedom.

Are you struggling with feelings of depression, anxiety, or insecurity? Therapy can help! I work with individuals, couples, and families, helping them strengthen bonds with those most important to them.

To accomplish this, I ask clients for feedback at the end of each session, and I actively talk with those whom I serve about any changes they feel need to be made to improve their client experience.

I am a Licensed Clinical Psychologist who specializes in treating clients with trauma, anxiety, and depression. Therapy can help with navigating life transitions, identity, relationship concerns, and family of origin issues. I seek to listen, explore where you've been, and identify current sources of distress. Therapy is not a one size fits all approach and developing an authentic and trusting therapeutic relationship is key. I'm here to offer some suggestions about strategies, treatment modalities, and approaches that may help you meet your goals in a way that fits for you.

I am currently only taking children & adolescents as new clients! Human beings are wired for connection. I whole heartedly believe this statement, and believe that trauma wounds and attachment issues can be healed. I have over 10yrs of experience with teens & families in various capacities, which allows me connect with each person differently. I also do in-home therapy with families, which allows me to work with your family in real-time, and be creative with interventions. I specialize in Narrative therapy, Attachment Focused Family Therapy, and other trauma-informed modalities.

As a queer counselor, I look to empower clients to love and embrace their authentic selves. I work collaboratively with clients to develop a plan to manage challenges, make changes, and build skills. I am trained in both CBT and EMDR and use these modalities in coordination with mind-body practices with individuals 12 years of age and up to make long-lasting changes. Additionally, I provide one-time evaluations for GAC (gender-affirming care) and ESA (emotional support animal) letters.

Grounded in empathy, curiosity, and a deep belief in the capacity for change and growth, I am dedicated to supporting individuals, couples, and families build stronger and more fulfilling relationships, heal from attachment wounds, process traumatic experiences, and foster emotional well-being. If you are facing relationship challenges and communication breakdowns, struggling to cope with stress, anxiety, and depression, having difficulty with self-compassion, navigating cultural identity issues, experiencing harm due to systemic injustices, and/or looking to gain a deeper understanding of yourself, I am here to support you.

How do we learn to embrace our vulnerabilities & imperfections so we can engage in our lives from a place of authenticity and worthiness? How do we cultivate the courage, compassion, & connection that we need to recognize that we are enough - that we are worthy of love, belonging & joy? Life's transitions can be very anxiety provoking & scary -- even those that should be happy transitions, such as starting a family or a new job! My goal is to assist my clients to become skilled at how to navigate these transitions utilizing a blend of techniques and a large dose of humor!

Through support and encouragement, everyone can have the ability to create positive change and find a balance in their lives. A strength-based approach can allow for the opportunity to identify successes, reestablish healthy patterns and learn new ways to deal with everyday life. I strive to create a safe and welcoming environment for clients from all backgrounds to share and process whatever brings them to the counseling space. I operate using an integrative approach to counseling, meaning I utilize different techniques based on what works best for you. Together, we can create goals that you or your child hope to achieve.

My goal as a clinical psychologist is to help children, teens, adults and families develop solutions to their problems so that their lives run more smoothly with less stress. I have worked at Children's Hospital Colorado and National Jewish Health for 15 years, and launched my private practice to add a community based focus. I provide clients with state-of-the-art, empirically-supported behavioral health interventions shown to result in fast and sustainable relief from depression, anxiety and conflict.

I am a licensed clinical psychologist and work with children of all ages, adolescents, adults, and families, and am currently accepting new clients. I approach therapy from a warm and relational framework and believe that therapy is about exploring patterns and looking within. These processes lead to heightened self-awareness and understanding, which break cycles and create lasting change.
