Therapists for Teens and Adolescents in Greenwood Village, CO
I work with pre- teen, adolescent and adult individuals facing challenges with mood, life transitions, balance/stress, adoption/infertility, relational issues, crisis and trauma.

I help clients remain solution focused while learning new skills and tools to manage symptoms and stressors. My current schedule is Monday through Thursday 9am-4pm. Please call or email today for new patient appointments!

If you’re feeling stuck in your own head—overthinking everything, pushing yourself too hard, or constantly wondering if you’re doing “enough”—you’re not alone. Many of the people I work with are high-functioning on the outside, but exhausted, anxious, or disconnected on the inside. You might be juggling work, athletics, relationships, or recovery & feel like you’re barely holding it together. My goal is to help you slow things down, make sense of what’s going on, & find a way forward that actually feels sustainable.

I see therapy as a partnership; you are the expert on your thoughts, feelings, and past experiences, and I am the guide who helps reframe and challenge certain lenses you might be using to view a situation or part of yourself. One of my primary specialties is working with those who are struggling with their use of substances. Another area of passion for me is assisting those who are experiencing anxiety, depression, or who are having difficulty moving on from a past event. A third focus in my practice is working with the experiences of those in the LGBTQ+ community.

I specialize in autism and ADHD evaluations for children, adolescents, and adults, as well as neuropsychology testing.
My ideal client is insightful but overwhelmed—often navigating ADHD, autism, or both, possibly for the first time in adulthood. They’re seeking clarity, not just a diagnosis, but a more profound understanding of how their brain works and how to thrive. They want relief from burnout, support in emotional regulation, and tools to function with confidence. Their goal is to stop camouflaging, feel seen, and live more authentically—with strategies that actually work for their unique mind. I integrate clinical therapy with deep diagnostic expertise. I’ll walk you through every step so the process feels empowering, not clinical.

I am formally trained in Grief Counseling, Play Therapy, Trauma Focused-Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Traumatic Memory Reconsolidation, and Counseling Adolescents.
Life sometimes leaves us with deep wounds which, left unresolved, can later appear in the form of depression, relationship struggles, anxiety, and anger. Putting on a mask for the outside world when you are falling apart inside is exhausting. With a non-judgmental lens, I see you as a person; not your past, not your actions, not your diagnoses. Are you ready to finally shed the mask and live your best life?

When you are alone you understand why you feel lonely. When you are in a relationship and you feel you are alone, that is different. Our need for relationships is hardwired into our biology. It goes against the grain for us to remain alone during our lifespan. However, relationships are tough. They require humbleness, honesty, and sacrifice. As a Certified Gottman Method Therapist, I am trained on the work of Drs. John & Julie Gottman and their over 5 decades of research on relationships.

FAQ - Teenage and Adolescent Therapists
What does therapy for teenagers look like?
When a therapist works with a teenager, the pair will talk about what the teen is struggling with and explore solutions, which may involve interpersonal skills, coping strategies, medication, or lifestyle changes related to sleep, diet, and exercise. Different therapists employ different modalities, but most involve a combination of conversation and skill building.
How long does therapy for teenagers generally take to work?
There’s variability in teenagers’ experiences and challenges; some may begin to improve from therapy within a few weeks while others may take several months or longer. Teens can discuss their progress with their therapist periodically to assess how they’re improving and any changes to the treatment plan that could potentially accelerate that progress.
How do you encourage a teenager to go to therapy?
It’s helpful to express your concern and love while framing therapy as an opportunity to explore a tool that could help improve their life; just like they practice baseball or dance, now they can practice their emotional skills. Give your teen control over the process where you can—maybe by weighing in on choice of therapist and signaling that therapy involves confidentiality, so a parent need not know all that is discussed in sessions.
How do you prepare teens for therapy?
You can prepare your teenager for therapy by describing what the process will look like and setting expectations for timeline, if requested. You can explain that the first session may begin with an assessment phase, that they can describe their experiences but that the therapist will ask questions too, and that it may take time to feel comfortable opening up. Ask how they’re feeling about the process and answer any questions calmly and supportively.
