Trauma and PTSD Therapists in Lakewood, CO

As a multicultural woman, I not only have personal experience with historical trauma , intergenerational trauma , and women's issues, but I also specialize in grief and loss, sexual assault/violence, suicidality, relationship issues, transitional difficulties, depression, anxiety, identity formation, and more. With experience serving ages 12-adult, I aim to create a safe space to explore an array of different obstacles within the human experience to leave the client feeling empowered and heard. My clients come to me looking for reprieve from mental aguish, and in true acceptance of the self, we venture there together.

I enjoy working with motivated women to increase awareness into the root cause of unhelpful/unhealthy patterns in their lives. I believe that all individuals hold the knowledge of what is best for their own life but sometimes need a gentle guide to help find their path. I strive to create a safe, nonjudgmental therapeutic space where you will feel comfortable expressing difficult thoughts, feelings, and experiences.

I have been a clinical psychologist for 35 years and have worked with hundreds of wonderful people. Rather than list my specialties, I would say the most important factor in psychotherapy is the quality of the relationship created between the client and the therapist. The felt experience of really being seen, as clients truly and honestly are, is the vital healing force. If people feel that then almost regardless of the presenting problem, people can gain freedom and control in their lives.

Many of my clients are young adults (18-26) navigating major life transitions in their relationships, careers, mental health, values, and identity.

Mind, body, and spirit encompass parts of our whole Self. When life is imbalanced, we feel it. This might show up as anxiety, depression, hopelessness, stagnation, or loss of control. I bring a holistic, embodied approach to therapy by identifying and reintegrating the parts of ourselves we've disconnected with via circumstance. Using eclectic modalities tailored to address your specific needs, I can help you make sense of and alleviate the discomfort you may be experiencing. If you're drawn to body-based interventions, intuitive insights, nature-based spirituality, and rekindling the magic that makes you, YOU, we may be a good fit!

Whether it is past trauma , current challenges, or future fears that are keeping you from getting to where you know you are capable of getting; I am here to help you figure out how to get there, and then keep going.
