Teletherapy for Denver, CO

Are you feeling alone in your pain? Do you feel stuck? And does the idea of opening up about your hurt feel overwhelming? Let's change that! Whether your pain is rooted in trauma, grief, anxiety, or difficult relationships, we will work together to transform your suffering into meaning, change, and growth. Together, we will shift your old ways of relating to others into new and healthy connections, so you can feel like your most authentic self.

Welcome! I am passionate about helping you become a more whole version of yourself and am honored to work alongside you in therapy. Together we will be curious about your internal world and the experiences that have impacted your story. I can help you process and heal from anxiety, relational wounds, marital conflict, or past and current traumas. We will work together on this journey of self-discovery through looking inward and nurturing your core self.

Are you feeling a disconnection between your body and mind, struggling to access your authentic self, or feeling strain in your relationship? Are these battles causing additional states? It's okay, and you're not alone. I am passionate about helping individuals and couples gain a deeper understanding of the roots of their attachment, how it impacts the nervous system, and how we can effectively address and unwind these patterns. Through therapy, we can reconnect, heal, and adapt to the challenges we encounter.

We need to feel to heal. I believe this to be true, and I’m also aware of how much easier said than done this process is. For many of us, disconnecting from our emotions, needs, and desires is how we’ve learned to protect ourselves from feeling the full weight of painful experiences in our life. I help teens and adults who have experienced trauma of any kind break free from these protective measures and begin to heal from trauma and its lingering effects. For my clients, these effects often show up as anxiety, depression, PTSD, self-harm, relationship difficulties, or a combo of all of the above.

Asking for help is one of the scariest, and therefore most courageous things you can do. Together, we will explore all the elements of who you are and discover your inner strength, wisdom, and clarity. I am a relationship driven therapist who uses a blend of modalities including AEDP, mindfulness, IFS, and narrative therapy. Whether your goals are to improve your relationship with yourself and others, live a life that is more full of meaning and joy, or to heal from grief and loss, I create an authentic space to support and challenge you in this process.

I work with individual adults on issues related to anxiety, stress, relationships, perfectionism, and traumatic experiences. Sometimes change is a choice, and other times we are blindsided by life. Regardless of what leads to a shift for you, having a compassionate ally on the journey can make all the difference. I’m not immune to struggle or disappointment in my own life, and see my work as part change expert and part companion. Simply another human being coming alongside you to help you process, make peace with, or initiate steps towards a bigger transition that leads to less suffering, and more joy.

I am a level 3 AEDP therapist. My goal is to help you develop an inner world with a clear sense of self-love, self-compassion, and courage, as well as an outer life of joy, great relationships, and purposeful work. Though our approach to creating this will be based on your unique needs, goals, and aspirations, there are a few foundational techniques that we will likely be relying on: we will aim to start the healing process from the get-go - this means noticing your unique strengths and gifts and leveraging them for our success. It also means working relationally, so that you feel less alone in the world.

I am an AEDP and Emotionally-Focused therapist working with individual adults on transforming challenges with mood, relationships and trauma into flourishing. While we will have specific goals for therapy, ultimately my hope is that you feel more alive, authentic, connected, resilient and self-accepting. We start by building a safe and trusting environment within which vulnerabilities, difficult experiences and unhelpful patterns can emerge and new experiments in thinking, feeling and relating can be attempted. This takes courage, and it can feel risky to speak the truth, to embrace disowned feelings, even just to receive support.

In my work as a therapist and through my own life experiences, I’ve found that so much of our pain as humans stems from a deep sense of disconnection, both from ourselves and from each other. I know it can feel like you’re in this alone- I’ve been there, and I’m here to tell you that you don’t have to be. Therapy can provide an incredible space to heal and grow through safe & affirming connection with someone else. I’m honored to hold this space for clients and I believe you deserve support.

Trauma blocks love and connection, love heals trauma and restores connection with ourselves and others, healing from trauma creates opportunities to experience the goodness inherent in all of us. Counseling is a great way to access inner resources to permanently heal trauma and suffering we all carry from past and current relationships. As a therapist and scholar with 20+ years of experience, I am a Gottman Level III certified, AEDP Level II certified and IFS Level I certified therapist, I understand we cannot change the past however, I firmly believe we can permanently heal from it.

You may feel tense, on guard, overwhelmed, drained, misunderstood, and disconnected from your body, needs, or relationship. You may have learned to appease the emotions and needs of others first and hide or criticize parts of yourself. If you are seeking relief from depression, anxiety, self-criticism, shame, grief, feeling disconnected, or weighed down by trauma or other experiences, I'm here to tell you that compassion for all parts of you is possible and you are so much more than the parts of you that are hurting!

Is your relationship struggling? Do fights or silences break out before you even know what happened? Do you feel cut out or lonely in your relationship? These are signs that the ‘check engine’ light is on and it might be time to take your relationship in for a check up. Sometimes you just get to a point where you need expert help. I excel at helping couples work through challenging conflicts and move past barriers to intimacy. Whatever the particular circumstances I will work with you to sort things out in an open and understanding way.

Are you ready to reclaim the power you've lost, connect with your intuition, and accept the parts of yourself lost to high control religion or from important relationships?

I am deeply committed to creating a safe and inclusive space with you to explore yourself and the pain you carry from previous relationships and experiences. By facilitating connection with your body, I aim to help you tap into your innate capacity for healing and growth by slowing down and tuning in.

Is your past is a heavy weight that you're always carrying around? Are you tired of feeling stuck in old patterns and beliefs?

I'm an EMDR certified therapist and I am passionate about helping individuals identify and untangle the deep wounds that are keeping them stuck. I'm here to help you process your story and learn to feel connected again.

You know who you were, but can't seem to access that person? Perhaps your relationships are in trouble, but you're not sure how to fix it? Gone through a transition and trying to find your footing?

Let us guide you on your path to wellness.

Being a woman in this world can feel so overwhelming- we feel like we are too much and also not enough, all at the same time. The endless to-do's, relationship challenges, and a loud and consistent inner critic can leave us feeling exhausted and on edge. Maybe for you the overwhelm looks like anxiety: constant worry and attempts to control your life. Or maybe it looks like depression: isolating, staying in bed, and shutting down to drown out the noise. It can be a struggle to live out of our authentic selves. But here, at Kin Counseling Services, you'll find the support and understanding you've been searching for.

Often our hurtful experiences are out of our control. You didn’t choose to live with pain. You are tired of feeling alone and misunderstood. The reality is our experiences and memories can shape our beliefs and worldviews, creating guilt, anxiety, shame, anger, and isolation. Living with chronic pain, illness, trauma, anxiety, and grief – does impact us. Even if you don’t feel like it at this very moment, there is part of you that knows they deserve something more, whether it’s self-compassion, healthy connections, pleasure, joy, or the chance to move from surviving to thriving. Let's get curious.
