Therapists in Denver, CO
If you have been seeking solutions to problems without resolution, or you have tried therapy before without success, contact me to discuss a new path. People often look for ways to eliminate bad feelings, or ways to understand their past. You may have declared that you don't want certain things in your life; but as soon as you say that you don't want something the problems expand. I will work with you to find a workable solution - a way to live your life in accordance with your values, and to develop a willingness to be present in your life.

Each of us has the ability to impact the world in a unique and powerful way and we are all born with the desire to deeply connect with others. Struggles with anxiety, depression, insecurity, burnout and stress can discourage us and keep us from realizing our full potential. Counseling gives you the opportunity to feel seen, heard and understood as well as challenged. It is through therapy that we come to understand ourselves more fully allowing personal growth, self esteem and possibly true satisfaction with the life we are given.

I believe that each of us is capable, sometimes with a little guidance, of making our own best decisions, and that each of us is responsible for our own path in life. This means that as a counselor, I work closely with my clients to decide on the best course of therapy. My work focuses on helping people free themselves from pain and the feeling of being "stuck" that keeps them from moving in a forward direction.

Seeking therapy is difficult and the first step is reaching out to find a therapist. Congratulations! The most successful relationships are based on a good "fit" between therapist and client. We will work together to pinpoint your areas of struggle, understand your history, and rewrite your story in a way that feels authentic to you. My goal is for you to leave our first session feeling welcomed, seen, and heard so that you have a renewed sense of hope that things can change in your life.

The fact that you are reading this likely means that you or someone you care about is going through a difficult time.

Most of my clients are looking to reconnect with pleasure in some way — whether that's healing from sexual trauma, unmasking and accommodating their neurodivergence, embracing their queer identity, or simply cultivating more pleasure and joy in their lives. I deeply believe they deserve joy, even when — especially when — the world around them tells them otherwise. I work hard to bring joy into each therapeutic relationship. I work best with folks who are looking for something beyond the "blank slate" therapists of the past. I'm a whole human and I hope to celebrate the wholeness of your humanity, too.

Most of my clients are people in search of deep, meaningful change or healing, and have had trouble getting started. Whether you're a seasoned therapy client or this is your first time, you're here for a reason, and likely find yourself overwhelmed (hello, 2025). Together, we can navigate the complexities of life - burnout, new/late/chronic health diagnoses, LGBTQIA+/trans/queer issues, relationships & communication, self-worth, grief/loss, neurodivergence - with compassion and curiosity.
As an AuDHD, queer & disabled therapist, I get it: it's hard to find someone who understands. Attunement means harmony - let's find it together.

I offer a relational, mind-body approach to healing that recognizes how lived experiences are shaped by systemic oppression, internalized narratives, and survival adaptations. My work is rooted in liberatory, decolonizing, and anti-carceral frameworks, and centers client autonomy, consent, and the wisdom of the body in the healing process. I support neurodivergent clients as well as those navigating complex trauma, dissociation, chronic shame, perfectionism, disorders of overcontrol, and the impact of internalized abuse and neglect.

I work with individuals 14 and older, and while I enjoy supporting teens and young adults through major life transitions, my practice extends to adults of all ages facing a wide range of challenges. I understand how isolating life can feel at times, and I aim to offer guidance that fosters both self-compassion and practical growth. I come from the belief that we are always doing our best in most situations especially in times of hardship or chaos. I want to help support you in creating the best version of yourself and then celebrate those successes. I value authenticity, empathy, compassion, and humor.
