Therapists in Northeast Colorado Springs, Colorado Springs, CO

If you’re reading this and considering counseling, there’s a part of you that’s searching for healing, wholeness, meaning, and joy, and I want to help you find it. I work with adult individuals using IFS, EMDR, guided imagery, and experiential and somatic therapies to help people heal from experiences like abuse, neglect, spiritual/religious or cult trauma, unwanted or compulsive sexual behaviors, depression, and codependency. I enjoy working with young adults, creatives, geeks and gamers, intuitive people who want to go beyond the black-and-white, and overthinkers of every variety!

Difficult relationships are something that almost everyone has to deal with at some point in their lives. However, it is how a person deals with that relationship that counts. I help individuals learn how to manage relationship issues in a healthy manner, and try to help them recognize and stop destructive patterns. I do this by helping my clients identify the core of their relationship issues. Many people have not yet healed from childhood wounds and traumas, and these things are causing them to be attracted to difficult people or even causing them to sabotage their own otherwise good relationships.

My clients say that I am a relaxed and accepting therapist, prepared to listen to them and respond to their concerns with insight and strategies for change. I operate from the understanding that our lives are an ongoing process of creation, some of which may fall outside of our usual awareness, but in which we may learn to take an effective, guiding role. Therapy works to identify and alter the motivations and misunderstandings which promote interpersonal conflicts and behavioral problems, and result in the experience of anxiety and depression in our daily lives.

I am a dedicated therapist with 25 years of experience working with diverse populations and situations, resulting in an ability to work effectively with individuals, couples, families, children, and adolescents with differing and distinct needs. I provide a personable, relaxed, interactive, and collaborative style, using various models/modalities to meet individual therapeutic needs. I draw from numerous resources to develop a well rounded tailored treatment approach.

I sincerely believe that one's perception is their reality, and understanding that perception allows me to connect with them in a more therapeutic manner. Each client brings their own unique story, and hearing that story brings valuable insight. My goals in the therapeutic setting are to earn and build client trust, to always be authentic, to model empathy and warmth, to employ unconditional positive acceptance, to assist with reframing problematic thinking to foster potential solutions for happiness and healing, and to foster development of healthy coping skills as needed.

I have experience with children, teens, and adults with behavioral issues, ADHD, Autism, Anxiety, Depression, and Trauma. I have experience w/ caregiver burnout and chronic health issues.

I work with clients at their own pace and help them establish and meet goals in order to address the concerns they bring to the table. My goal is to help clients develop healthier ways of coping with difficult situations both past and present.

I have a PhD in Clinical Psychology - Trauma emphasis from the University of Colorado at Colorado Springs. I specialize in PTSD and trauma, anxiety, and attachment/relationships.

In addition to this training, I am a combat veteran spouse, mother, stepmother, and disaster responder, allowing me to merge evidence-based practice with a “field-based” and realistic approach to mental health.

I have always had a genuine interest in the uniqueness and well-being of others. I believe that we can all grow from the situations we have experienced. Whether that experience be divorce, abuse, addiction, or trauma of some sort. Our brains & bodies have a way of healing themselves through processing. Certain experiences can cause us to feel alone, anxious, sad, depressed, unmotivated, angry, violated, exposed, and at times emotionally unstable. Here in therapy I walk the journey with you as we work through emotions, gain insight, and create more beneficial perspectives. I provide a space of safety, understanding, and compassion.
