I support individual clients as well coping with issues such as depression anxiety, panic attacks, grief, binge eating, bipolar disorder, stress management, LGBTQ issues, and trauma.
I love supporting couples and individuals who are wanting to make a change in their life or wanting to feel better. Maybe they are struggling with regulating their emotions and don't have enough tools to be as resilient as they would like to be. Maybe there are outside stressors with work, a relationship, or kids and want support in how to handle a situation. They may find themselves "triggered" by things from past trauma and they don't know how to cope. They may feel very stuck in a relationship and now sure how to move forward.

Grief and trauma often cause people to solely exist rather than live.
Sometimes getting away from an office is the best way to open yourself to change. When you feel stuck, as though you only go through the motions of the day, due to trauma and grief, spending time with horses (on the ground) and other animals is what is needed to get 'unstuck'. With specialty in grief recovery, I offer my horses and their intuitive nature to help clients make changes and get 'unstuck' in a safe, relaxed, peaceful setting. I also offer traditional therapy. We can sit in the quaint little office in the woods, take a walk through the trees or hang out with the animals; whatever you need on any particular day.

As a former victim advocate with Colorado Springs Police Department, I have a deep passion for helping victims of crime regain their power and find their center. It is through my work with law enforcement and victims of crime that I have gained a deep understanding into the dynamics of trauma, vicarious trauma, secondary trauma, and repercussions of untreated PTSD. It has also been my experience that the vast majority of addictions stem from untreated and unaddressed adverse life experiences that are inherently trauma related.

What helps people deeply heal are brain-based interventions that understand the nature of our nervous system. As such, I have dedicated my practice to learning these interventions and how to apply them for issues ranging from trauma and relationship violence/stress to eating disorders, depression, anxiety, and addiction. I take this same lens when working with athletes, whether that's to recover from an injury, recovery from mental health concerns, and/or learn to consistently perform at your bests. I have experience treating ages as young as 6 through the lifespan.

For more than 20 years I’ve helped people stop anxiety, overcome overwhelm, and heal past pain and trauma as we partner together.
It’s exhausting always waiting for the other shoe to drop. As an overthinking and overwhelmed professional, perfectionist, or people pleaser, you’re beyond tired of constantly reliving the past or worrying about the future. You have a good life, but you don't feel good, and you don't feel good enough. Even though you have a strong faith or sense of purpose, you stay in high anxiety, chronic worry, and feeling emotionally overwhelmed. You want to stop feeling like anxiety is controlling you and start feeling in control of anxiety, but instead you feel stuck in what-if and worst case scenario thinking that you don't know how to stop.

Hello! My approach to therapy is first and foremost person-centered. I know that a "one size fits all" approach to healing does not work, therefore I take an eclectic approach to therapy, utilizing concepts from Existential Therapy, Trauma-Informed Therapy, Sandtray Therapy, and Art Therapy. I am a strong believer in the truth of the phrase "We are wounded in relationship, but also healed in relationship." I would love the opportunity to facilitate a safe, nurturing, and healing environment in which you can share your story, explore your wounds, reclaim your power, and take mastery over your story and healing.

I specialize in trauma and addictions because I am a recovered addict with 15 years sobriety.
I believe in helping people put the pieces back together. I specialize in trauma issues, self esteem, depression, sex addiction and sexual trauma. Often trauma has a long lasting, but unknown effect on people. Resolving trauma leads to previously unknown levels of fulfillment. When a persons self-esteem is well functioning, their relationships often are also connected and intimate. Sexual addiction is treated in a stigma-free manner. I treat my clients with dignity throughout the process and facilitate a shame-free recovery.

Trauma and PTSD Therapists
When should I seek treatment for trauma?
Not everyone who undergoes trauma needs therapy to heal, but many do. If, after experiencing a traumatic event, you find yourself struggling with symptoms such as nightmares, dissociation, irritability, or emotional numbness—especially if these symptoms last more than a month and are severe enough to interfere with your daily functioning—you may benefit from seeking out therapy with a trauma-informed provider.
How long does trauma therapy take?
Different types of therapy for trauma unfold on different timelines. Prolonged exposure therapy and cognitive processing therapy, for example, each take about three months, while trauma-informed CBT may last anywhere from 8 to 25 sessions. Other approaches, especially those that are less structured or that incorporate elements from multiple modalities, may be more open-ended, though many patients report feeling better within the first few months of treatment.
What happens if trauma is left untreated?
Unaddressed trauma can have serious—even devastating—effects on relationships, career, and day-to-day functioning. Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) can lead people to distrust or lash out at others, making it difficult to maintain intimate relationships; it can also trigger symptoms such as flashbacks or hyperreactivity that can interfere with a person’s ability to function effectively, personally and/or professionally. Some sufferers turn to drugs to find relief. Symptoms may lessen on their own with time, but there is no guarantee that PTSD will resolve on its own.
Can PTSD come back after treatment?
It is possible for PTSD symptoms to recur months or years after successful treatment. This is because, like most mental health disorders, it is not possible to “cure” PTSD, and stressful life events may cause symptoms to recur in even the most resilient individuals. There is no shame in re-experiencing PTSD symptoms nor in returning to therapy when such relapses occur; indeed, many forms of trauma therapy explicitly encourage periodic “maintenance sessions” to reinforce coping skills and ensure that symptoms stay manageable.
