Therapists in Fort Collins, CO

Life can be overwhelming, and Western culture does not readily offer the tools to help us navigate the impact. We end up carrying stress, anxiety, trauma, and depression in our bodies, and if the the cycle continues, we can end up burnt out. In the confusion, we may turn toward substances, behaviors, and other strategies to cope, which ultimately leave us more burdened than before. As hopeless as things can seem, there are always opportunities to change your inner and outer patterns. Over time, these small changes can redirect your life toward alignment, fulfillment, and ease grounded in the present moment.

Life is full of challenges for each and every one of us. In my 20 plus years of working as a Mental Health Care Professional I have learned that the hurdles we face ultimately help us to change and grow. I have worked with individuals and couples from all walks of life, coping with loss relationship issues, life changing medical diagnosis, reproductive trauma, career challenges, anxiety, trauma and depression.

Stress and conflict can overwhelm us to the point that it impacts all areas of our lives, including our most important relationships. A trained therapist can help you become aware of obstacles that stop you from fully engaging in your life. Finding a counselor who is a good fit is an important part of getting the most from your experience in therapy. I offer a FREE 20 minute consultation to meet and determine if we are a good fit to work together. Together we will create a plan to help you work toward your optimum emotional health in a collaborative and safe environment.

What if you felt heard and seen? What if you were more connected to your true self and could more freely express yourself in the world? What would your life look like if you were more present and connected to your own heart and the hearts of others?

We are accepting new clients! Feeling overwhelmed and stressed most days? Is it hard to imagine your life getting better? Whether struggling with a chronic problem or a new crisis- talking to a therapist can help you cope. I offer a free 30 minute phone consultation to help my clients decide if I am a good fit for them. I strive to provide a sacred and genuine space for people to get "unstuck" and help them to move forward. Depression, anxiety, social and relationship problems can be dramatically improved by having the courage to ask for and receive help. Take the first step towards a better life...hope to speak with you soon.

We all have spirit. The spirit to move toward meaning in this limited time we have. We often need support in this chaotic world, to speak our truth- And a space to set expectations aside but for an hour at a time. To decide what we want to be and how we want to show up in this moment. And what we want to leave behind as a legacy to family, community, and the world. It would be a privilege to provide a space for you to explore this.

In our lifetime, we find ourselves at many crossroads, and we can feel stuck or at a loss for direction. Whether you're trying to figure out if you're in the best relationship, which career path to take, how to manage difficult family or work relationships, or how to finally make that one big change you've been wanting to make, you're not alone. Life is challenging, the options can feel overwhelming, and it's easy to feel lost and lonely; we've all been there, many times. You don't have to wander and struggle alone; I'm here to guide and support you, and provide ideas, skills, and even scientific research to help you decide.

I work with clients who feel stuck; stuck in the emotion and negative thoughts associated with life's stressors. Clients, who are beginning to realize that there will always be the struggle of relationships or money matters or health concerns or..., yet understand that they can begin to develop a different outlook, belief system.

Do you find yourself trying to make everyone around you happy but yourself? Do you try to intellectualize your way out of your feelings? Do you feel on edge or anxious most of the time? Our minds and bodies do a wonderful job of helping us survive traumatic experiences, but these survival techniques can also begin to impact our connection with ourselves, our relationships, our purpose, and much more. Through exploring past experiences, strengthening the mind-body connection, and continuing to be curious and compassionate towards self, we can begin to shift ourselves out of survival mode into a life we choose.
