Therapists in Niwot, CO

Are you feeling overwhelmed, lonely, helpless, anxious or sad? Do you find it difficult to connect with friends, family and loved ones? These are common challenges that many of us face and you are not alone. My training and education have equipped me with a range of therapeutic techniques and approaches, including EMDR, Flash Technique, IFS, CBT, DBT, and mindfulness-based therapy. I believe that everyone is capable of growth, change and healing, and I am here to support you every step of the way. Together, we can work to rewire your nervous system and restore balance, peace, and happiness to your life.

Relationships are what make life richer, kinder, and more fun. When those aren't working well, life can be really tough, either because we don't have the relationships we want, or those we have aren't working... Loneliness, people-pleasing, social anxiety, or fear of rejection... arguments, lack of connection, or constant conflict... all these can make relationships really, really hard. It all comes down to our relationship with... ourselves. When we know, love, and care for ourselves, our relationships start to change, from the inside out.

When you seek change, there is a good reason. You may feel overwhelmed, stressed or have too many days feeling bad. How do I feel better or make a change? This is the place to start, therapy with compassionate, kind and non-judgemental support through this challenging time. Together we will create a path to understand your pain and the path out the other side to feeling good, confident and valued. We will look at patterns of behaviors and thoughts that are not helpful, boundaries that are draining and the patterns that weave your life. This path is challenging, interesting and fun. It is wonderful to feel content and confident.

Are your old patterns no longer working for you? Do you strive to feel more connected to others? Most people have experiences in life that feel challenging, uncomfortable, painful, and scary. I'm dedicated to holding space for you to explore the challenging experiences and scary obstacles that have occurred throughout your life. Those experiences are opportunities for repatterining and reconnection. You're not alone. I'm passionate in supporting individuals navigate anxiety, stress, perinatal mental health and perinatal mood and anxiety symptoms, developmental trauma, relationships, relationship with body, women's issues.

I work with those facing life transitions, uncertainty, or longing for more fulfillment in their lives and relationships. I love to help individuals relate to their inner wisdom, connect with joy and fuel their passions using a holistic approach. I am guided by the heartfelt belief that a good therapeutic alliance can improve lives through mindful attention, building skills, and gaining perspective. My clients report feeling more empowered, embodied and connected after our work together. My goal is to help individuals connect with their deep inner resources to lead richer, more satisfying lives.

I help clients to overcome life struggles, inter- or intra-personal issues, pre-marital issues, process trauma/attachment history, increase coping skills, self-esteem, parenting issues, career/academic dissatisfaction, communication and conflict resolution skills. Are you feeling stressed, down, overwhelmed, or unheard? Have you sought a deeper understanding of yourself and your patterns? Are there changes or challenges in life that are difficult to manage or overcome? Are you looking for a therapist that is direct and open with observations? I want clients to feel empowered, capable and supported in a judgement free space.

Sometimes we all need a little help as we navigate the journey of life. Life can be full of loss and many different transitions. With my warm style and many years of experience, I am here to help. I specialize in grief, trauma, anxiety, depression, self esteem, and self-harm.

Whether this is your first time engaging in therapy, or you have experienced counseling several times, it is with great joy that I look forward to working with you. My approach is individualized and customized to meet each client where they are at. It is my hope to create a collaborative experience to support personal growth and progression.

I have been a mental health practitioner for over 25 years. I specialize in the treatment of trauma, anxiety, identity and attachment dynamics. In my experience a common thread observed is the individual's need to be understood, to be accepted as they are, experience long term meaningful connections and to live an authentic vibrant life. Too often we adopt a judgmental inner narrative that is riddled with shame. In therapy I will help you learn to explore yourself and your relationship with others through the eyes of compassion and curiosity.

Welcome, I'm glad you're here. I know what it’s like to feel disconnected and dissatisfied with life and relationships. At its heart, the healing work I offer is a process of learning to know and express your soul - the one inside you who knows how to love, connect, create and who believes life can be beautiful. Therapy is a place to witness and let go the strategies and habitual patterns that were created over your lifetime so you could belong and survive. I give you the tools you need to develop a compassionate witness, claim your agency and integrate that which has gotten in the way of a fulfilling and authentic life.
