Health First Colorado Therapists in Loveland, CO
As children, play is how we live our lives, interact with our environment, communicate our thoughts, feelings, and passions. Often times the stresses of life, relationships, job pressures, traumas, and losses make us forget how to play, how to explore, and seek growth. Wherever you find yourself today, I would be honored to help YOU find YOUR way back to your playful spirit. One that encourages you to grow, explore, and understand yourself. Gently pushing you to be the best you, you can be. So that you can overcome obstacles that are in your way, conquer hills you are seeking to climb, and relationships you are hoping to create.

Many adults I work with feel like they should be capable, yet are often struggling with confidence while feeling overwhelmingly stuck, stressed, anxious, or burnt out by work or life demands. They often report also living with ADHD, AuDHD, autism, or chronic health conditions. Many value understanding the "why" behind their experiences and are ready to practice the "how" through support that treats emotional dysregulation, increases mind–body connection, improves relational understanding and practical skills that build capacity and support sustainable daily functioning across life, work, and relationships.

My path to counseling has been unconventional. I began as a neuroscience researcher at McGill University, studying emotional regulation and how trauma affects the brain and nervous system. Over time, I realized understanding the science wasn't the same as helping people heal. I discovered I could bring together scientific understanding with compassionate therapy. I specialize in anxiety, trauma, and life transitions using Internal Family Systems (IFS), somatic therapy, and nervous system regulation. My approach helps clients understand how trauma lives in both mind and body, creating pathways to healing.

From the outside, you have it together—but inside, you feel overwhelmed, anxious, or never quite “enough.” Maybe you show up for everyone else at work, in relationships, or in caregiving roles, while feeling exhausted by overthinking, hard on yourself, or disconnected from who you used to be. This may even show up in your relationships or intimacy—feeling disconnected, pressured, or like you're going through the motions. You’re ready to feel more at peace, respond instead of react, and build a more compassionate relationship with yourself.

“I don’t like what I see in the mirror.” “My thoughts are constantly racing.” If you’re navigating the emotional landscape of neurodivergence, caregiving, trauma, major life transitions, grief, depression, or anxiety, you deserve a space where your experiences are truly seen, respected, and understood. I work with individuals facing challenges related to neurodivergent identities, caregiving roles, life-changing illness or injury, trauma, and life transitions. I am LGBTQIA+ and disability affirming, and I approach therapy with deep respect for the diverse ways we live, adapt, and heal.

My ideal client feels overwhelmed, disconnected, or stuck in patterns that no longer serve them.

Sometimes the pressure to perform in school, sports, or daily life feels so heavy it’s difficult to catch your breath. It can feel like no one fully understands how exhausting it is to meet constant expectations—whether they come from others or from yourself. Stress and anxiety may keep you awake at night, replaying the day in your mind. Even when you push forward, it might feel as though the weight of it all is closing in. I want you to know you don’t have to carry these struggles on your own. I work with athletes as well as clients navigating anxiety, depression, and trauma.
