Healing begins when you feel heard. As your therapist, I will support you in gaining insight, releasing what no longer serves you, and exploring your story in a safe environment. My goal is to help you embrace your authenticity and reclaim your power. This journey can feel isolating, and I aim to help you reconnect with what feels true to you. I identify as a free-spirited individual, bringing these qualities into our therapeutic space. I value empathy, collaboration, and honesty as we build the skills and confidence to face life’s challenges.

Perhaps you are here in Colorado surrounded by beauty and a vibrant community that is always seeking the next best thing. It can be an intimidating process to find your purpose and make your mark especially when you’re not feeling like yourself. “I know where I want to be in life, but just can’t seem to get there... Will therapy even work for me?... I feel like a piece of the puzzle is missing, now what?... I’m running out of time to change... I don’t know who to trust.” Fear, Doubt, and Shame like to interfere with our pursuit of self-improvement, introducing thoughts like these to keep us isolated and uncertain.

My approach is to create a space where you are free to be who you are. By encouraging inner transformation and your desire to heal, the wounds and archetypes you have created for survival reveal themselves. Revealing these archetypes provides you with insight to the parts of yourself that are dark and needing to be heard. Together, we invite these parts of you into the room and learn from the wisdom they can provide us. This insight into emotional turmoil, and its relationship to mind-body connection, becomes the tool of healing.

Are you feeling stuck? Whether that’s stuck in a relationship, stuck in your work, or stuck in patterns that are not serving you, I would love to be of support. Through cultivating a space of curiosity and non-judgment we will explore and practice new ways of showing up in the relationships and activities that are important to you. Through building awareness, somatic interventions, and contemplative practices we will work to find how these places of “stuckness” and constriction can be supported into release and freedom.

There are seasons when life feels heavy, when anxiety, grief, or the quiet ache of disconnection start to take up too much space. You may wonder why you feel this way or why you can’t just handle it. I have been in those places too, and I know how lonely it can feel to carry pain that no one seems to see. My work as a therapist begins there, with the courage it takes to show up even when you are unsure where to start. I believe healing happens in moments of real connection, when someone finally feels safe enough to exhale and be honest about what hurts. In our sessions, you are not broken or in need of fixing.

As a registered Psychotherapist with 18 years of experience serving children and adults with mental health support, my approach is quite holistic.
I believe that therapeutic listening can support us as humans to clarify our own intentions and hear our truth. Modern external life challenges like relationships, balancing career and family, and unforeseen hurdles can leave us unbalanced and disconnected. My ideal client is looking for a beacon within themselves that I hope to shine a light to bring back to center. As a mother, entrepreneur and self-starter of many fulfilling endeavors, realizing that the grounded connection to our own inner voice is fundamental in generating a meaningful life also plays a role in what I bring to the table as a mentor, champion and resource.

You may look like you have it all together—steady, capable, the one others lean on—but inside you feel exhausted, anxious, or unsure who you are beyond the roles you play. My clients are therapists, helpers, and high-achievers who long for more ease, authenticity, and connection. Together we slow down, listen to the body, and gently transform patterns of overdoing and self-doubt into grounded presence, self-trust, and aliveness.

We are all becoming. Becoming more confident, more weighed down by the stressors of life and our relationships, more independent, and more unsure of our identity or place in the world. And the most confusing part: all of those ‘becomings’ are happening at the same time. How are we able to celebrate the joys in our worlds while feeling tied to pressures that are both external to us and internal, hitting close to vulnerable wounds? Welcome to Becoming Therapy Services. By engaging in open and collaborative dialogue, we will use tools to help discover the stories that deserve a voice and parts of you that exist beyond the surface.

Life is like a river, rapid and perplexed as it streams us into a direction. There may be times where we choose which way the river will bend, and other times where we become subject to its flow. In this chaos, finding our way home to ourselves becomes the journey. If you are reading this today, that tells me there is something in your life worth recognizing, acknowledging, expanding, or even evolving. In my experience, I have helped individuals recognize the root of their challenges, embrace empowerment, and redefine their journey. Patterns that intertwine us dissipate as we find our way home to ourselves.

FAQ - About Adult Counseling
Why should adults see a therapist?
Adults may benefit from therapy for a wide range of reasons—whether it’s managing symptoms of a diagnosed mental health condition like anxiety or depression, navigating life transitions, coping with grief or trauma, or simply seeking support during a challenging life period. Many adults find that therapy helps them build healthier coping skills and better process their emotions, which may lead to better relationships and reduced stress. It’s important to note that, unlike psychiatrists or primary care physicians, therapists do not prescribe psychiatric medication. However, they will often work alongside prescribing clinicians to ensure coordinated care and can provide behavioral therapy as an important addition to psychiatric medication. Mental health concerns can look different in adulthood than in childhood or adolescence, so finding a therapist with expertise working with adult clients is important. Conditions like major depressive disorder (MDD), generalized anxiety disorder (GAD), bipolar disorder, and post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), for instance, may present or resurface differently in adulthood than in childhood or adolescence. Adult-specific stressors, such as job strain, caregiving responsibilities, relationship challenges, financial stress, or identity transitions, can also influence the onset and type of symptoms an individual experiences. Adult-focused therapists, therefore, are trained to understand these complexities and tailor care accordingly.
How do I know if a therapist is the right fit for me?
When seeking care, it’s important to understand a therapist’s treatment specialties and their overall approach to treatment . Some therapists focus on common adult conditions like anxiety or depression, while others specialize in areas such as trauma, substance use disorders, or obsessive-compulsive disorder. It’s also important to consider a therapist’s training when seeking care. Therapists hold various licenses depending on their training and state requirements. Common therapy credentials include Licensed Clinical Social Workers (LCSWs), Licensed Mental Health Counselors (LMHCs), Licensed Professional Counselors (LPCs), and Licensed Marriage and Family Therapists (LMFTs). Psychologists (PhD or PsyD) receive additional doctoral-level training and may focus on assessments or more specialized therapeutic approaches. All of these professionals can provide talk therapy but do not prescribe medication. When searching for a therapist, consider their credentials and training background to ensure a good fit.
How do I find a therapist who sees adults?
Psychology Today’s online directory allows you to search specifically for therapists who work with adults. Each provider profile includes key information such as clinical specialties, therapeutic approaches, licensure, accepted insurance plans, languages spoken, and session fees. Reviewing these details can help you determine whether a particular provider aligns with your needs and can indicate whether they are a good match for adult clients.
