Therapists in Denver, CO
Whether you're stuck in the woods of perfectionism, nice girl syndrome, or people pleasing, it is possible to climb out and get back on track. I know it feels daunting now, but that is why you are here.
We all embark on the journey of life at the same starting point. We travel down the road before us, trying to carve out a path that will lead us to the kind of life that will bring us joy.
However, there are times when that path leads us off the course of happiness and fulfillment and into the unexpected or unwanted.
If you're ready to get back on the path that leads to a more fulfilling life, then you've come to the right place.

I have a unique passion for working with a diverse range of individuals, including children, teens, young adults, adults and parents.

I'm very passionate about working with those who have been blindsided by grief, trauma, and transition issues. I believe psychological pain dwells within the brain, nervous system, and the body so elements of effective treatment must include them as well. I don't think any single approach to therapy will be enough so I use my understanding of several types of approaches to aid in collaborating with clients to best address their concerns and aspirations. I work with adult individuals and couples.

Are you a neurodivergent person who feels like they are constantly masking in order to fit in and feel burnt out from doing so? Do you struggle with communicating your needs which results in frequent misunderstandings with other people? Are you having meltdowns due to sensory overload?

Parenting a child with big emotions or challenging behaviors can feel exhausting, isolating, and overwhelming. Many parents come to therapy feeling stuck in difficult patterns with their child and unsure of what to do next. I specialize in supporting parents of young children through these challenging moments with compassion, collaboration, and practical guidance. My approach helps parents better understand their child’s emotional and developmental needs while strengthening the confidence, skills, and connection they already bring to parenting.

If you're feeling stuck in your life or relationships, change is possible. Sometimes, even though there is love in a relationship, people can't connect. Distance and resentment can grow, making loving and healthy communication impossible. Families can have similar dynamics, people don't feel heard, understood, or valued. These most important connections can break down and the family doesn't function in a way that works for everyone. These issues can intensify in the face of trauma, addiction, or the identification of special needs in children. In these intense times people need support so they can grow, individually, and together.

As individuals traveling through this world, we find that our experiences can be as ugly as they can be beautiful and as challenging as they can be blissful. Navigating our lives can be confusing, scary, and painful. But I believe in an individual's ability to find their own answers, create their own meaning, heal, and even thrive. I view my role as a facilitator of that process. As important as it is to me to incorporate my knowledge of psychology into the therapeutic process, it is equally important to me to simply be a human being in a therapeutic space with another human being.

I believe that meaningful change begins within a genuine, trusting relationship. As a therapist, I show up authentically—grounded, human, and fully present—so that you can do the same. My goal is to create a space where you feel seen, understood, and supported, while also being gently challenged to grow into the version of yourself you want to become.
I work with individuals who are navigating difficulties with emotion regulation, self-trust, substance use, and perfectionism. If you often feel overwhelmed by your emotions, stuck in cycles of self-doubt, or driven by relentless internal pressure, you’re not alone.

Many of my clients live with the sense that none of this matters, not knowing how to do it differently, or disliking who they have become. Coping through alcohol, drugs, or shutting down emotionally often leads to greater isolation and disconnection. They carry fear, guilt, shame, trauma, and Moral Injury while feeling pressure to stay composed. What they want most is relief, connection, and a path toward meaning and wholeness.
