Therapists in Florissant, CO

What if you woke up tomorrow and found yourself happier, healthier, and more connected to the world around you? Life can certainly leave us feeling disconnected and struggling to find happiness on our own. It does not have to be that way. Maybe you feel like you know where you want to go but are not certain how to start. I understand. Maybe anxiety has taken over at the worst possible moments, or overwhelming sadness has left you unable to get on with your day. I see you. Pain touches us all in a deeply personal way. And it provides connection by way of compassion, understanding, and validation.

Life creates challenges that are often tough to deal with by ourselves. By providing a caring and empathetic approach, I can offer support and guidance to address issues that may include relationships, grief and loss, family conflict, and addictions.

I collaborate with families, couples, individuals, and kids on issues that are big or small. I believe we try to do the best we can with what we have. We could all use more tools, more support, a deeper understanding of ourselves, and our pasts, to live the life we want. We can get stuck in loops that do not work and behave in ways that we are not proud of. I work with clients to create the change they want to see and is some cases figure out what that even looks like.

I work best with individuals who are ready to do deep, internal work to understand and develop a loving relationship with their inner world.
