If your relationship feels stuck, I will help you identify & change harmful patterns before you feel hopeless. Afraid of replicating your parents' marriage? We'll explore your fears, improve communication, & work toward more effective solutions. Plan to move in together? Get married? Change jobs? Have a baby? I can help you prepare now for the typical (& your unique) stressors that come with those changes instead of feeling blindsided by them & trying to pick up the broken pieces later. Communication, intimacy, & sexual satisfaction can all be strengthened with some intention & time. I'm licensed to work in Colorado and Michigan.

As a dedicated Clinical Social Worker and Addiction Counselor, I bring a unique perspective to my practice - not only professional expertise but personal experience. Having navigated my own journey of recovery, I understand the complexities, challenges, and triumphs that come with overcoming substance use disorder, trauma, and other mental health disorders. This firsthand insight fuels my passion for guiding and supporting others on their path to recovery and healing. I believe in the transformative power of empathy, compassion, and resilience, and I am committed to walking alongside my clients.

I work with individuals and couples facing trauma, PTSD, dissociation, or relationship struggles. My clients often seek relief from overwhelming emotions, greater safety in their bodies, and deeper, more authentic connections with themselves and others. Together, we focus on healing and growth that lasts.

Have you spent time trying to claw your way out of a deep, dark cave of depression? Unhappiness can feel overwhelming, scary, and even shameful. My ideal client is someone who is ready to break free from these feelings, someone seeking understanding, growth, and a path toward lasting happiness. You may feel trapped by patterns of negative thinking, disconnected from your emotions, or unsure how to build the relationships and life you truly desire.

Looking for a good psychologist is hard and actually finding one is even harder. This is probably because understanding people, why they are struggling, and how to help takes hard work. Real change requires more than any quick fix or simple solution can offer. If you’re continually struggling in life, it might be time to look beyond the surface and explore the root of things. I will work with you in a depth-oriented manner that aims to deepen your self-understanding and create important and lasting change.

I am honored to be considered to help you with your current life experience. I use mindfulness, body-centered awareness, and intuition to help my clients deepen their own healing process. I believe the difficulties you are experiencing are opportunities to grow and heal the patterns that no longer serve you. I believe you are the expert in your life. Together we uncover your true knowing and create solutions from a place of strength, allowing you to move forward on your life path. It takes courage to heal and step into the fullness of who you are meant to be. The therapeutic relationship can support you in this.

As a Licensed Marriage and Family therapist, relationships are what I love to help you figure out. Whether it's your relationship with yourself, a partner, a child or maybe your relationship with a "thing" (alcohol, shopping, work), I'm here to support you as you get to the root of it and find a healthy, self advocating way to address the issue.
(Telehealth services only for Utah residents at this time.)

Life isn’t a prison. It’s a playground.
As a queer, trauma-informed therapist, I help clients break free from oppressive systems and reconnect with their playful, empowered, fully alive selves. Learning to be goofy is a form of resistance. Together, we’ll explore healing through laughter, compassion, and emotional congruence.
I specialize in supporting:
• LGBTQIA+ and gender-expansive folks
• Neurodivergent clients (ADHD, autism, sensory sensitivity)
• Creatives, deep feelers, and those who’ve always felt “other”
• Individuals with complex trauma or dissociation
• Spiritually curious clients asking big questions

“I don’t know how to control these racing thoughts.” “I’m afraid of letting people down in my life.” “I feel weighed down by my past.” My passion in counseling is helping individuals with anxiety, depression, LGBTQIA+ issues, and trauma. Therapy should be a place where you can express yourself without judgement, fear, or concern. I will walk with you as you uncover greater strength by becoming a healthier, happier version of yourself. With strong principles of compassion and trust, we will use tools to promote growth through practical goal-setting and building a strong therapeutic alliance.

Find Your Path Forward from Difficult Experiences
Life's challenges—whether divorce, abuse, addiction, or trauma—can leave you feeling anxious, isolated, and emotionally overwhelmed. But I believe that within every person is the profound capacity to heal and grow from these experiences. Your mind and body already know how to heal; my role is to help you activate that process.
In our work together, I offer a safe, compassionate, and understanding space to walk with you on your journey. We won't just talk; we will actively work to process difficult emotions, gain powerful insights, and build new perspectives that serve you.

ADHD, trauma, anxiety and/or depression can leave us lacking a sense of belonging and/or feeling like we’re behind where we "should" be. You’re not broken; You just haven’t been given the proper opportunity or skills to connect with your authentic self and develop the systems and self understanding that will allow you to succeed, and be the badass you truly are. With approximately 20 years of experience, I bring authenticity, warmth, compassion, humor, and honesty into the therapy space. Together we'll work on building a stronger sense of self and confidence.

After many years in the public school system as a teacher and school counselor, I decided to leave the school system and joined a growing private practice specializing in OCD and anxiety. There, I offered therapy services and led specialized groups for two and a half years. Recently, I decided to expand my services to the Fort Collins area and launch my own practice, with locations in both Boulder and Fort Collins. I have created and led several therapy groups including a grief group for adults, a support group for adolescents with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD), and anxiety groups for all ages.

Are you feeling stressed, overwhelmed, exhausted, or even hopeless? Do you wonder if things will ever get better? Whether you are experiencing emotional struggles that you just can’t seem to get through, having problems in your relationships, struggling with past trauma, addiction or substance use, experiencing stressful life changes, or stuck repeating the same old unhealthy or destructive patterns and behaviors you just can’t seem to break free of, therapy can help. Seeking help for the first time can be a scary and overwhelming experience. It takes courage to be willing to reach out and open up to someone new.

Each family faces unique challenges that can feel isolating, especially if your family isn’t considered a “traditional” one. If you are a child or teen in foster care, if you’re adopted, or you’re being raised by a relative or single parent, you are not alone. Feeling abandoned, rejected, experiencing grief, loss, guilt and shame are some of the difficulties you may encounter. These feelings are often combined with anxiety, lack of attachment, behavioral issues, depression, emotional dysregulation, or incomplete identity development. Without support, any one of these may feel overwhelming.
