I have specialized knowledge in Couples, Teens, Families, HSP, HSS, Narcissistic Abuse, Cults, Mental/Emotional Control Devices, Trauma and Domestic Violence.
Relationships are a skill that require practice. Most of us have been exposed to, or surrounded by, poor models of relating. Whether you've observed or been involved in relationships characterized by avoidance, passive-aggression, people-pleasing, dishonesty, or abuse...there is hope. Can you be present with an open mind, spirit of curiosity, and a willingness to try new things? New patterns can be learned, and these patterns can replace the ones that cause disconnection and misunderstanding. Healing isn't always comfortable, but that's why they call it "growing pains" :)

As a mental health provider nearing 20 years of experience, I know these initial steps seeking support can be tense and uncomfortable. Rest easy knowing that when we meet for your initial session, you will enter a safe space you can relax into, free of judgement. We are all unique beings– I seek to ensure my clients are fully seen and understood. Along with traditional psychotherapy approaches (psychodynamic, evidence-based and somatic therapies), I am also offering psychedelic assisted psychotherapy (ketamine assisted therapy), integration consultation, and psychedelic harm reduction care at my downtown Denver office suite.

Domestic Abuse Therapists
What are the most effective ways to recover from domestic abuse?
Leaving an abusive relationship requires tremendous courage, so survivors in treatment should recognize that they have already completed the most important step. Still, the trauma of physical or emotional abuse can be difficult to process and overcome. Therapy can help survivors process trauma, grief, and difficult emotions, treat relevant mental health symptoms, and create a new framework for boundaries and relationships in the future. For some, support groups can also be an invaluable outlet for healing.
When should an individual seek help for domestic abuse?
Victims of intimate partner violence should seek help immediately. It can take substantial time, planning, energy, and courage to leave an abusive relationship, but starting the process—by seeking therapy, calling the domestic violence hotline, or simply confiding in a loved one—will help them get there. Those who have left abusive relationships but haven’t sought treatment can also greatly benefit from therapy to process and heal from the experience.
What are the consequences of staying in an abusive relationship?
Remaining in an abusive relationship has serious repercussions. In addition to the ongoing threat of physical danger and emotional abuse, research shows that intimate partner violence is associated with a range of mental health disorders including depression, post-traumatic stress disorder, anxiety, and substance abuse. Therefore it’s important for individuals in an abusive relationship to seek help as soon as possible.
How can you get domestic abuse treatment for someone else?
It can be very complicated to identify and leave an abusive relationship; barriers include the threat of violence, financial instability, and family pressures. Those concerned about a loved one in an abusive relationship should talk to them about the situation, provide them with resources such as the domestic violence hotline, and introduce the idea of seeing a therapist due to their concern for the person’s safety and well-being.
