Wellpoint | Amerigroup Therapists in Highlands Ranch, CO
I have 20+ years of experience in mental health supporting high-functioning individuals who may be feeling stuck and in need of actionable tools, not just gaining insight about their struggles. I work with individuals and couples who want measurable progress as they navigate life transitions, stress, anxiety, depression and addictive process. Some may be stepping into a new role at work, facing the realities of aging or healing from painful losses and traumatic experiences.

Life presents us with numerous situations, some seemingly minor, others revealing themselves as significant issues later on. When people start to struggle with anxiety, depression, physical symptoms, stress responses, or difficulty managing emotions, they may realize it's time for a change. I desire to help people as they encounter this desire for change.

In the middle of becoming someone new? I work with adolescents and adults navigating identity transitions—career pivots, new parenthood, finishing school, layoffs, or the quieter realization that the life you’ve been building no longer fits. I came to this work through my own transition after a decade in tech startups, so I understand what it’s like to question your path and grow into something not yet fully defined. I’m also a new mom, with firsthand experience of the disorientation and identity shifts that can come with early parenthood—so if you’re in that season, you won’t have to explain it from scratch.

Some relationship patterns repeat so predictably it starts to feel like you’re stuck in something you cant name but cant escape. You might be in confusing relational cycles, feeling stuck, or you just cant seem to find a healthy partner and lose yourself. Or you're ready to take a break from relationships and focus on empowering yourself again and break free from codependency and insecurity.
I work with individuals and couples who want to understand these patterns more deeply and shift them at the level where they actually live: emotional responses, nervous system activation, and relational dynamics.

I help people come home to themselves. Together, we’ll explore the roots of your anxiety, depression, ADHD, trauma, or relationship struggles—not to pathologize, but to understand. To shift out of survival mode and into grounded self-leadership.

I became a therapist because I genuinely want to provide a space for people to show up just as they are. You don’t need to feel a certain way, say anything specific, or meet any goal on my timeline. When we can sit back and accept ourselves as we are, we begin to hear things we couldn’t while trying to fix or fight parts of ourselves. I believe even the most challenging parts of us have protective purposes—they deserve curiosity, not shame.

I believe that healing in the context of therapy is, at its core, about having someone bear witness to our pain. I’m inspired by the idea that we are all bent towards growth, healing, and our own self-actualization; sometimes we just need a companion as we tap into that internal compass. It’s my aim to hold a safe and empathic space for you rooted in curiosity, rather than a pursuit of any “ideal", as you embark on your healing journey. I take an eclectic approach in the counseling room, utilizing Attachment Theory, Somatic Mindfulness, Internal Family Systems, Existential Theory, and Person-Centered Therapy, among others.
