Teletherapy for Longmont, CO

There are times in our lives when connection is really what we need, but we’re not sure how to get it. Our wounding often occurs in relationships making them feel unsafe or risky. In equine therapy, we get the opportunity to practice “safe” connection or “secure” relationship, with myself and with the animals. We can learn our relationship patterns and better understand our needs while connecting. Whether we experience anxiety as we move toward someone new or pull away when someone moves toward us, we can repair where it all began—in relationship.

Life can be challenging and there are circumstances for many of us where we need assistance to navigate the difficulties we find ourselves facing with a professional. At times the healthiest choice is to ask for help. Counseling people through their personal challenges is a calling and passion for me. I have practiced psychotherapy for 24 years and have worked regularly with life transitions, addictions, acute and complex trauma, depression, anxiety, anger, stress, eating disorders, family issues, loss and grief. Contact me and let's see if working together would be a fit. I offer a 30-minute free consultation with no obligation.

I believe in your positive potential. There's an inherent good in each of us, and with the right approaches and techniques, this core can be cultivated no matter how challenging or painful life may sometimes be. I provide keen emotional awareness, consistency, stability and competence in a trustworthy environment. You'll have access to years of practice and personal understanding. We'll meet your challenges and struggles together and you will discover new choices, solutions and experiences.

I know no better medicine than to help each other feel seen, accepted, and made to feel safe. Humans are pack creatures, that tend to do better in pairs and groups. However our skills to authentically and securely attach have become illusive in today's world. Through building real connection with your therapist, you can find real insight, real healing, and true growth. I also work in the CDOC (in prison) with violent offenders, and those with serous criminal history. I think you'll find there's no issue I'm not equipped to deal with. Been practicing for 15 years, and I've helped all walks of people.

Anxious? Fearful? Sad? Overwhelmed? Lonely? Do you need a non-judgmental, experienced professional to help explore new paths in managing yourself, relationships, education, or career? I would value being the person to empower you to create positive shifts in your areas of concern. Adults, College students,Couples and Teens are welcome to use our sessions to learn new tools to lessen anxiety, control your fears, minimize your depression, and manage your life without the overwhelm. I use a diverse approach including client centered, cognitive, gestalt, EMDR, and behavioral. Free 15 min phone consultation and 1/2 fee first session.

Creativity, aliveness, sexuality, passion and playfulness are all inherent experiences of being human. I am passionate about helping others live a life that feels alive and engaging. With a compassionate presence and non-judgmental perspective, I co-create an environment for clients to explore hard emotions and life experiences so that they can be more spacious, confident, strong and joyful. Connection through relationships, sex, intimacy and love are areas I specialize in. I am a multicultural and trauma informed counselor who speaks English, Spanish and Portuguese fluently. I also offer cannabis and ketamine-assisted therapy.

If you've lost a loved one to suicide, you know: grief after suicide is unlike anything you've ever suffered before. It strips your world down to the bones. Your soul is hollowed out like an abandoned building. Light can barely get in. Few people can imagine what you're going through, or what you may need to survive and rediscover a life worth living. I get it. My own daughter, Beth, killed herself. It's why I do this work. If no one understands your pain - if your support network has failed you and people are pushing you to "get over it" and "move on", if you're struggling to function in daily life - let's talk. You are not alone.

Beginning therapy can be one of the most important decisions you’ll ever make, and I want you to know how much I honor the courage it takes to pursue a more connected, authentic life for yourself. I work with clients in pursuit of the insight and self-compassion necessary to identify needs and progress toward goals. So often, unconscious dynamics and inherited patterns of behavior dominate our lives. These processes usually exist beneath or outside of our conscious awareness. My role is to help you encounter the truth of your life, while embodying enough kindness to change.

You had a picture of how your life would be, you worked really hard, but then you encountered something unexpected that has left you reeling. Perhaps you are unable to get pregnant, or your mental health has randomly taken a nose dive? Maybe you are horrified by the injustices around you and are full of hate and fear, or you are stuck in a job/relationship/location that is bleeding you dry? You feel disconnected from others and yourself, and are angry, sad, or exhausted most of the time. It’s been rough. But good news, counseling can help. My hope is for you to feel like yourself again as you live your full and purposeful life.

Are you experiencing anxious feelings, restless thoughts, or negative self-talk? Using traditional talk-therapy along with intuitive movement, posture, and breath, I’ll join forces with you on your journey of personal development and healing. I'm dedicated to helping you recognize your innate strength through mindfulness practice and self-inquiry. Cultivating a relationship based on trust and open communication is the foundation of my compassionate and direct method. Let’s work together to release the limiting beliefs and old stories about who you used to be, and experience the joy of your infinite potential in the here-and-now.

My ideal client is struggling with depression, anxiety, stress, anger-management, self-esteem issues, or grief. They are interested in learning about themselves and cultivating healthy coping strategies to deal with the challenges of our modern world. They understand that we all have the opportunity to continue growing and they want to live a more free, and self-expressed life.

Feeling stuck, alone, and wondering if you will ever feel good enough? Lately you find that you are comparing yourself to others all the time and you feel disconnected from the accomplished, empathetic, and heart driven woman that others see you as. You notice patterns of the past continue to come back to haunt you and you're exhausted trying to break free from the cycle of self-doubt and anxiety that holds you hostage. Life feels especially heavy lately, and it’s getting hard to hold it all together. It’s common to struggle with self-confidence and not seeing the true light you have to offer, but it doesn’t have to be this way.

We are living in strange times, and I know you've been through a lot lately. Whether you're feeling lonely, despairing, struggling to find your purpose, or realizing that you've been coping with the help of substances, there is hope. We can work together to make this time an opportunity for growth and meaningful change. I am dedicated to supporting my clients through emotional distress, and helping them discover internal strengths and resources to live the truest versions of themselves. Please note: I see clients online only.

How long have you been struggling with the burden of feeling like you're not enough? Not small enough, not good enough, not strong enough, not simple enough… It can be exhausting and lonely to feel like you’re constantly falling short. Maybe you spend your days obsessing about food and body image, trying to power through your anxiety, or trying to push aside the burden of the past long enough for you to cope with your fears of the future. If any of this speaks to you, I want you to know that you’ve done such an amazing job getting yourself this far - but you don’t have to do it alone anymore.

My intention is to assist you in discovering a deeper exploration of yourself and new ways of thinking in order to enhance your daily life and allow for a more fulfilling experience while on this planet. Please contact me to discuss where you are currently in life as well as where you would like to be. Together we will work towards determining your individual values, motivations, healing past wounds, and creating a plan of action to get you moving ahead and onto your new path. May peace, love and light be with you on your journey.

Reaching out for help is daunting. Not knowing if you’re going to find someone who fits what you need. Not knowing what the therapy process is like. Not knowing what to say or do. Not knowing how long this journey will take. I get it. It can be overwhelming and takes a lot just to make a phone call. But rest assured that I am here to help guide you through the process, help you get through the pain, and out on the other side.

Life can be better. You can feel less stressed. You can be more alive, more present, more authentic. Your relationships can be more nourishing and work can be meaningful. I am confident in helping my clients make big evolutionary leaps using a unique blend of energy arts and counseling. I can help you to get in touch with your hidden gifts. If you feel overwhelmed by thoughts, emotions, or day-to-day experience, I will help you clear your mind and discover the strength within your sensitivities. If you feel uncertain, stuck in indecision or lost in grief, I will help you find a new way forward.

Are you longing for more meaning and clarity? Does your life seem to look the way you thought a happy satisfying life should- and yet, you find yourself feeling unfulfilled and like something is missing? Do you feel hopeless to change anything? You are more capable than you realize. There is more depth, more meaning and purpose available! What if it's less about changing yourself and more about deepening your relationship with yourself to access your unique resiliency and strengths? What if it's not about making due, but more about recognizing and owning your needs as an integral part of showing up authentically and fully?
