Hello! I'm looking forward to meeting you. I am a therapist specializing in working with sexuality topics. Maybe you are looking for a therapist for a sexuality concern, sex therapy, sexual pain, trauma, or for transgender-affirming care. Maybe you just want to see someone who "gets it" and will be affirming of everything that makes you uniquely you. Whatever the reason, I am excited to accompany you on this wellness journey you're taking! I bring great enthusiasm to my therapy and I am looking forward to helping you achieve your life's passions. I have immediate openings, so we can get started soon without the wait.

Couples begin therapy for reasons ranging from "We're doing okay but could use a little help," to "We're falling apart and may not make it." Wherever you fall on that spectrum, from a bump in the road to what feels like rock bottom, couples counseling can help! Couples feeling distant & constantly at odds with one another, exhausted by repetitive conflict, defensiveness, misunderstandings & lack of appreciation wonder "is this as good as it gets? Is this the best we can hope for?" I am a highly engaged therapist who believes it is possible for people to grow and change & I help couples gain confidence that they CAN hope for more.

Accepting new clients! Stepping into therapy takes courage and a readiness for positive change. I provide individual therapy to adults experiencing a wide range of life challenges including relationship difficulties, work-life balance, life transitions, identity loss, anxiety, depression, and stress management. I have a particular passion for maternal mental health and parenting support. No matter where you are in your life, if you are looking for a change, you are in the right place.

Sound familiar? You're in or approaching the mid-years of life, but the term middle-aged makes you cringe. Your life seems to make a perfect social media post, but you feel like an imposter every time you hit send. You have all you ever wanted but feel like something is missing. You worry about caring for your parents or are grieving for the life you never had with them. Pain, sleep problems, and other changes abound, but it's written off as “part of aging.” I’m here to empower you to move beyond these dismissive diagnoses and life concerns and to change your experience with yourself, with others, and with your health and wellbeing.

Women in their 20s-40s are often bombarded with difficult life transitions such as adulting, relationship distress, quarter-life crisis, career pursuits, parenting, caregiving, and more. This can be a lot to manage! Social pressures and the changing roles of women in this age group require a focused, feminist, and knowledgable approach. It can be tricky searching for the right therapist, so I appreciate you being here in the first place. My approach is fine tuned, using radical genuineness, to help you learn how to manage these unique stressors while maintaining authenticity and calm.

As a mental health professional, I am highly passionate about helping my clients navigate life's challenges and achieve their goals. I take a caring and accepting approach, creating a safe and non-judgmental space for all of my clients. My approach is grounded in the belief that every person has the strength and resilience to overcome their challenges and create a fulfilling life for themselves. I work collaboratively with my clients to help them identify their strengths and develop strategies to tackle their obstacles.

Therapy is not a one size fits all endeavor. I am a strong believer that we are all in fact our own best experts. It might mean (re) discovering what brings us joy, fulfillment, even excitement. Discussing your own individual, unique journey without judgement, bias, coercion, or assumption can be a way to ensure you feel you are on the path YOU are consciously choosing. I'm here to support you in YOUR goals. I think of my role first and foremost as an ally. Utilizing my experience, expertise, education, & empathy to best support you in your own healing journey. Our past, while vital to our sense of self, does not have to define us.

Shame and guilt bogging you down? Dealing with the pain of losing a loved one? Grieving a break-up? Struggling with self-blame and criticism? Do you feel stressed, overwhelmed, and have lost some of your interest in things that once made you feel alive? Or maybe you're feeling stuck and searching for more purpose in life? I offer a safe space to process these feelings. A space where you can feel validated, and understood, but held accountable to begin making meaningful changes.

Is the transition to motherhood more difficult than you expected? Do you wonder what you're doing wrong? You may be tired of the sadness, guilt, worry, scary thoughts, and anger. You may be feeling disconnected and isolated, wondering if you're cut out for motherhood. You might not even remember how you felt before all of this started. But one thing is for sure: you're ready for some relief. You're ready to start feeling like yourself again. You're ready to reconnect with your loved ones and enjoy your children. Most of all, you're ready to find joy and contentment in motherhood.

Do you ever ask yourself when you’ll have your life back? You give it all to your kids, partner, and career. It’s time to rediscover your heart and soul. I offer relational and nature-based therapy in Denver and Evergreen, CO.

I work with children, adolescents and adults who are primarily dealing with anxiety, depression and relationship issues. Emotional health is as important as physical health. We work together to understand how to accomplish change. I work in medical and mental health settings with the belief that integrating feelings with appropriate behavior creates a more peaceful existence. This summer I will be offering psychotherapy with equine assistance for kids (individual and group treatment) ages 6-adolescents at Affinity Ranch in Parker, CO.

Does daily life feel overwhelming and out of control? Showing up for ourselves, our loved ones and our other roles can feel like such a struggle when anxiety and depression leave us paralyzed. Stop feeling stuck in the same behaviors and start making different choices. Together lets find meaningful, real solutions. I can help you learn helpful tools to calm the body and mind, change negative thinking, and address harmful, unhelpful behaviors. Therapy can be the place where you can begin to create a plan for meaningful change.

Welcome! I am a somatic psychotherapist who believes that the foundation for growth and lasting change involves developing a loving and nurturing relationship with all parts of ourselves, especially the parts that we tend to feel the most afraid of and resistant toward. When we begin to embrace our present experience and listen to the deeper wisdom inside, we gradually and naturally transform into the most empowered versions of ourselves. In this way, we can learn to use moments of darkness and suffering as a path to light and freedom.

So many women in nursing and healthcare professions get to a point in their career where they realize how exhausted and unsatisfied they are, and wonder if they're in the right place. Maybe your strategies for managing stress stopped working, you've missed a shift because of feeling overwhelmed, made a mistake because your brain is frazzled. Or you spend so much effort recovering from your last shift and preparing for the next one, that you aren't enjoying life and relationships. It's possible to feel inspired and fulfilled in the work you do, while also having a satisfying life outside of work.

Many clients are in crisis and seeking assistance with a specific issue: Divorce, Grief, Addiction, Depression, Medical Diagnosis, Anxiety, or Life Transition. Therapy helps treat the turmoil that is the natural result of these issues. The skills developed during therapy help clients live full, happy and rich lives. Clients generally arrive with a specific personal crisis. I work in unison with clients to facilitate a deeper, richer, sense of identity. Each individual is held from a perspective of capability, competency, and resiliency, that bring about a sense of continuity and recognition of their authentic self.

Everyone has a story. Our stories say something about who we are and how we manage life, how we get our needs met and how we relate. We all have the same basic needs for love, acceptance, connection, significance and purpose. Life can be full of joy and laughter, and at other times there can be deep hurt and sorrow when we need someone with an understanding heart and mind to join us in our journey. My heartfelt compassion and commitment to each person I serve, specifically caring for their unique needs makes all the difference.

Are you or someone in your family experiencing conflict and stress in their everyday life? As a parent, do you often find yourself not knowing what to say or how to respond? If this sounds like you or your family, you are not alone. For the past 25 years I have been providing therapy to children, adolescents, adults and families. Many of the clients I see have a history of trauma and struggle with anxiety, fluctuating moods, issues related to self-esteem, challenging behaviors and complications in relationships.

I will partner with you to feel better about yourself by exploring those issues that are affecting you in a negative way. Together we will find solutions to your problems.
