Reaching out for support is a brave step in your healing journey. As a therapist, my goal is to create a collaborative therapeutic environment tailored to your needs and goals. I work with clients as young as 7 as well as teenagers and adults who are struggling with anxiety, depression, trauma, and interpersonal struggles.

We guide clients to the path of success by providing thorough assessment and setting specific treatment goals for trauma resolution, mood management, academic challenges, or workplace challenges. We provide treatment with a variety of modalities, depending on the needs of the client. We specialize in helping people achieve more successful lives by addressing conflict, depression, anxiety, and interpersonal issues.

Navigating this life and our intimate/family relationships is not always easy. In fact, there are times when we all need someone to share the burden of understanding and working through relational conflict, difficult emotions, and past trauma in a productive and fruitful way. I work with individuals, couples, and families, with the understanding that each person is an expert of their own life and that I am a partner on this journey. I am dedicated to helping my clients realize their full potential in every area of their life and relationships in any way that I can.

Trying to figure out who you are? What your purpose is? Looking to improve relationships? Wholehearted living is a concept that I have adopted in the name of my practice and in the way I interact with each client. "It means cultivating courage, compassion, and connection and to think... I am enough... Yes I'm imperfect, vulnerable, and sometimes afraid but that doesn't change the truth that I am also brave and worthy of love and belonging" - B. Brown. I believe any person deserves to feel whole. This is a process of returning to yourself through excavation, unlearning, and remembering who we are.

Welcome to my page. It is so important to find a therapist you feel is a good fit for you! As a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist, relationships are my bread and butter. I work with adolescents, adults, families, and couples to identify what is and isn't working in relationships, so you can practice setting boundaries, communicating needs, and living in accordance with your values. Looking at our environment helps us identify what we can control to reduce anxiety, depression, and trauma symptoms. I am trained in EMDR, ACT, and Gottman Method Couples Therapy.

Let's be honest, therapy isn't the first choice for most people. If, however, you are in a place where this might seem like a good option, I'd appreciate the opportunity to work with you. Whether it is personal issues or you're having difficulties with your spouse, significant other, parent, or child(ren). Or, maybe you just need some support with a transition in life. I enjoy working with people from all walks and stages of life and while change is up to you, know that I'm willing to be in your corner along the way. In addition to myself, we have a team of 13 other providers ready and wiling to help in any way we can.

We're in the business of helping meet the challenges of life, employment, and organizational success.

Finally, organizations can turn to us for assistance with relationship management and organizational improvement and effectiveness.

Life is not linear nor are the paths to healing, and healing with help is my goal. Regardless of age, walk of life, or faith my goal is to work with clients in a person-centered, non-judgmental way, creating an atmosphere of safety where intimate subjects can be freely discussed. I am a relational therapist that works through a lens of trauma-informed care and cultural humility.

It takes courage to start your healing and growing journey. I see my role as a partner with my client's. Together we will find strategies to enhance your life and build your resiliency; developing skills to have more meaningful relationships and finding a path to your goals. Simultaneously we will explore any emotional barriers, past or present, that may have interfered with your journey. This philosophy fits for my work with adults, children and families. Together we will find new ways to navigate life with new skills and bravery.

It is my goal to help you set achievable goals, to find inner strength, and to overcome daily hurdles while working towards internal improvement and serenity. I work with individuals, couples, and families, in a encouraging and supportive manner, to assist with internal and relational conflicts, as well as co- parenting matters, and divorce issues. By looking at things from a different perspective, and helping you to trust that you know what you need, I will help you to setting and achieving your goals.

​As a mental health counselor, I am passionate about helping individuals of all ages navigate their unique journeys towards emotional well-being. With a diverse range of clients, I bring a compassionate and client-centered approach to therapy. My expertise lies in three main therapeutic modalities: internal family systems, narrative counseling, and attachment theory.

As a clinician it is my goal is not to focus on treatment, but to join the client through the process of healing. The way I do this is by getting in depth understanding of hearing the narrative of my client's lived experiences and starting at the place of their choosing. It is important to me build a strong connection to the clients I serve. Therefore, they can achieve be in a space where they can be open and allow the process of healing to occur.

Clinical treatment experience includes the Veterans Health Trauma Clinic, Colorado Springs VA Medical Center, Iron Horse Family Medicine Clinic on Fort Carson, and AspenPointe/Diversus Health. 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.
