Family Therapy in Westminster, CO

Do you sometimes feel alone in the world? Do you sometimes wonder "is this all there is?" Do you often wonder if everyone else has some sort of secret knowledge, that if only you had, would make your life better? Many of us feel these things at one time or another in our lives and sometimes we get "stuck" and feel unable to move forward. I will walk with you and help you understand where these issues come from and what you can do to feel better.

I use both art and talk therapy to treat children, adolescents, adults and families with relational struggles, mood disorders, anxiety, substance abuse, life transitions, grief and more. I am an art therapist, often inviting my clients to drop into their body in order to move further from the busy mind. I believe that growth comes from the commitment to the therapeutic process. In family work I specialize in high-conflict divorce and co-parenting. My focus is on helping parents support their children best in the process of divorce and post divorce reality.

My approach to counseling is humanistic and client-centered, and I strive to provide a warm, safe, and accepting environment for all clients. I believe that all people seeking therapy deserve to feel respected and safe, and I strive to connect authentically with each client to meet their needs. I work as a part of KidStuff Child and Family Counseling, P.C. and I have a depth of understanding of trauma, anxiety, depression, conflict, low self-worth, abuse, and attachment disruption. I utilize many effective modalities including play therapy, creative arts interventions, and engaging talk therapy.

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor, Licensed Addictions Counselor, and Registered Nurse. My approach to health and well-being is rooted in the belief that we have within us the capacity to live satisfying, engaged, empowered, joyful, and meaningful lives. I help my clients get to the root of what is holding them back, and transform limiting patterns so they can live a happy, healthy life. My style is compassionate, direct, supportive, and creative.

Choosing a therapist can sometimes feel daunting and overwhelming—it is certainly a courageous and vulnerable act! That is why I do my best to create an experience for my clients that is warm, welcoming, authentic, and trusting. Part of why I decided to become a therapist is because I highly value the relationships in my life, including the relationships I form with the people I work with in therapy. While relationships can sometimes be sources of immense distress, pain, confusion, and loneliness, I also believe that when they are healthy and safe, they have the ability to soothe, comfort, and generate powerful change.

As a pre-licensed Marriage and Family therapist , my focus is on treating the whole system opposed to only part of the unit. My education and work experience has focused on populations including couples, families, and individuals. The areas that I specialize in are substance use, eating disorders, premarital and marital distress, mental health diagnoses, behavioral health diagnoses, and trauma.

The moment I realized I wanted to pursue a career as a Marriage and Family Therapist was during my first psychology course in high school. This course sparked my interest in counseling, specifically with couples and families. A core value of mine is how important relationships are with the world, our families, and ourselves. Learning about the developmental stages inspired me to focus on the importance of relationships. Relationships are fundamental to a child's upbringing, not just to children but at all stages of life, starting with childhood, leading to adolescence, and though adulthood.

The ideal client for my practice is someone who is invested in helping themselves get better, but finds their self stuck and in need a new approach. Often times, I refer this as "wanting to want to get better." This is when we have lost momentum in motivation, but still hold on to the idea that if something comes along that would work, the individual would engage it. I believe in partnering with the client to develop a plan that works for THEM. We always begin with the end in mind; determining what success means for the client and measuring out when counseling will be complete.
