Do you feel like your anxiety is preventing you from living the life you want? Are you tired of being called lazy, forgetful, and having people assume you don't care...when in reality you just have ADHD. Other people don't understand that you have to work 3 times as hard to do basic things like making appointments, or folding laundry. Maybe you feel imprisoned by your own mind, spiraling and doubting yourself. Maybe you only feel good about yourself after a hard workout, a productive day, or getting an A on a test. Life doesn't have to be this way, and you no longer have to navigate it alone.

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor and Registered Play Therapist specializing in working with school aged children, teens, and adult individuals. As a child therapist I utilize play therapy, expressive art, and sandtray therapy modalities, providing children with developmentally appropriate opportunities to self-direct and “play out” their feelings and inner worlds much as adults “talk out” their feelings in traditional talk therapy. I also work with adult individuals or parents seeking to re-procress traumatic memories. My counseling approach is integrative and proscriptive, relationship-focused, and strengths-based.

As Brené Brown reminds us, “Only when we’re brave enough to explore the darkness will we discover the infinite power of our light.” My work is informed by extensive knowledge of trauma, family-of-origin dynamics, intrusive narratives, and life transitions that can redefine identity, such as becoming a new parent. I strive to create a safe space for people to explore their experiences, understand their patterns, and reconnect with themselves beyond survival. My goal is to walk alongside others as they build their favorite life—one that feels aligned, authentic, and deeply connected within themselves and with those who matter most.

Feeling stuck, unmotivated, or like even the simplest tasks drain every ounce of energy while your mind races with “shoulds”? Exhausted, overwhelmed, and bracing for that one more thing to push you past your limit? Do things just feel "off" & you can't quite pinpoint what it is? Or maybe you’re just tired of feeling tired. You don’t have to keep pushing through alone. Together, we can help you find your footing, ease the heaviness of life and move forward with clarity and steadiness. I’m Jackie, an integrative therapist, and I look forward to supporting you in finding relief, balance, and a life that feels lighter.

Life inevitably brings both challenges and opportunities for growth. In the face of difficulty, it’s common to feel overwhelmed or stuck. Taking time to check in with yourself—and engage in the reflective, goal-oriented process of therapy—can help you reconnect with your strengths and resilience. In my work, I support clients in identifying and clarifying their therapeutic goals, and in moving toward them step by step. I believe mental health is a vital part of overall wellness, and that small, intentional efforts each day can nurture our capacity for contentment and balance.

I help people who feel like they have to perform to be loved: the perfectionists, people-pleasers, and quiet overthinkers who carry a lot of shame on the inside. You will be a good fit for me if you've struggled with shame, difficulty processing your emotions in a healthy way, or noticing the impact this has on your relationships. If you grew up feeling like you had to perform, stay ‘strong,’ or earn love to belong, you’re not alone. I help people heal the quiet shame and emotional exhaustion that comes from a lifetime of people-pleasing. If that resonates, I’m currently accepting new clients.

There are no "bad" clients. My ideal client is someone who has courage to heal. We can often say we want to change, but the fear of the "unknown" sometimes outweighs the motivation for actual change. I have shifted my approach to assisting in focusing on the motivation instead of changing. Our world is performance based, but I want your shifts to begin because they have been internal and sustaining. You can do this!

My approach is strength-based , solution focused, trauma focused and mindfulness based.
The Latin root of the word motivation means “to move”. In order to move we need to have a purpose and a goal as well as the confidence to believe in ourselves and the decisions we make. Trauma, including PTSD, Depression, Anxiety, relationships with food and eating, self harm and suicide ideation are the areas where the majority of my clients are challenged. Gaining self awareness, confidence and belief in yourself and your abilities, and the courage to move through the hard stuff, will be the foundation for creating a new way to move in the world.

Golden, CO 80401
The couples and individuals who work with me are generally in their late 30's through 50's and they are ready to get down to the business of living their lives like they really mean it. This means getting honest with yourself, cutting through what isn't working, building on what IS working, and being open to trying new ways of thinking and being. My clients tell me I'm down-to-earth and compassionate, and I'm really good at getting to the heart of the matter and helping create change through experiential approaches (mindfulness, somatic work, here-and-now practice). I love what I do, and I look forward to meeting you!
