Family Therapy in Denver, CO

Are you thinking of starting therapy because you struggle with romantic, family or work relationships? Do you find it challenging to address your own needs? People who seek out my services often know these issues exist but want support with moving from knowing to healing and growing. They don't want a therapist who nods their head. They want a therapist who empathizes, provides insights and humbly provides alternative ways to exist in this world.

As a long time therapist, I know that it usually takes a lot of courage to reach out for help & it can feel so vulnerable to take this first step. I honor this stepping out of your comfort zone into the unfamiliar, so I create felt safety & a close therapeutic connection from the get go. I bring compassion into all my sessions, valuing the client's pace and sense of security as highly as I value my knowledge and experience. It is my belief that it is only in this balance that therapeutic healing can occur.

My passion is working with couples to positively impact their relationship and find new ways of communicating with each other, and I have found that using Emotionally Focused Couples Therapy is an exceptional tool to address attachment in family systems. I have also been fortunate enough to expand my experience into addressing substance use and the impact that it can have on not only the individual, but the entire family. Regardless of who is part of the family system, my goal is to help you reach your goals.

I feel that family connection and communication is the foundation for healthy futures for both adults and adolescents. As a seasoned LCSW in the Denver metro area I have extensive experience in working with youth and families in getting through these challenging experiences and moving towards healthier communication, relationships and futures. I offer in-home family and individual work that addresses issues related to juvenile justice involvement, patterns of oppositional behaviors, school issues, unhealthy relationships and other presenting mental health issues. Family therapy addresses family relationships, parenting skills, communication challenges, and understanding healthy rules, roles and responsibilities.

I work with adults struggling with relationship issues, addiction, depression, anxiety, and PTSD. Many of my clients have become very successful despite difficult childhoods and are curious how therapy can help to reduce their suffering, heal from past traumas, and learn healthier ways of attachment. I use elements of EMDR therapy in my approach. I am kink allied and sex positive. I invite you to come as you are. I will respect, support, and encourage you during our time in therapy.

I have a unique understanding of a multitude of recovery programs including the 12 step process. I have strived to learn how best to integrate these concepts which have helped so many with psychotherapy and marriage and family therapy. I have spent the last seven years working with individuals and families suffering from substance abuse, behavioral health, anger, and severe mental health issues. By enlisting and encouraging the partners, parents and siblings into the therapeutic process, the weave of all family members are able to find their voice and begin to work on healthy family dynamics.

I take a holistic and contextual approach to therapy. I want to know your sources of pain - but I also want to know what you value, what has shaped you, where you draw inspiration, your beliefs, and how you feel in your own body. We’ll peel back layers, we'll process distress, and we'll build practical tools to manage the challenges you're facing. Ultimately, we’ll build a more authentic, empowered sense of self. If something is no longer serving you, let’s figure out how to change it. My areas of focus include sexuality, sex, identity, anxiety, depression, relationships, and life-transitions.

Your mental health is important. How you experience your world and cope with your feelings, influences every part of you. Every person deserves a place where they can share their most challenging experiences, cope with their feelings, and feel empowered to live life. Helping people find motivation to improve their health and well being is my passion. I started my psychology practice to provide a space for people of all ages and backgrounds to begin their paths to self-improvement. I work with people in-person as well as remotely through HIPAA compliant video telehealth technology.

I bring 20 years of experience and have treated tens of thousands of patients! I am high energy and passionate about helping people embark on the journey to find their true selves and life path; whether it relates to behavior, family, relationships, addiction, career and any other issue that one may find adversity. I've been told I have a gift to quickly get the core of peoples struggles in order to help them find resolution. I use behavioral strategies to help people achieve immediate change, then dive deep into analytical work which helps the changes become permanent. CALL TODAY!

I have provided counseling services in Denver since completing graduate school in 1999.

For 8 years, I worked at a school and community based medical clinic providing psychotherapy to all ages. I have also enjoyed private practice over the years. In each setting I work, including private practice, my therapeutic modality varies, but I always come from a strengths based/empowerment approach. I love somatic (mind/body) based work, as I am also a yoga teacher.
