I am a Colorado-based, licensed doctoral level clinical psychologist passionate about treating depression and anxiety, especially in those struggling with belonging and identity. As a neurodivergent individual, I specialize in working with ADHD and autism clients, as well as supporting “LGBTQ+” folk, parents and individuals who are coping with medical issues. Despite our differences we all share the challenge of living authentically and being able to thrive in a society that was not designed with our wiring in mind.

I often hear my clients say, “I wish I had started therapy sooner!” That doesn’t have to be you. Is therapy hard at times? Absolutely! It’s also an extremely rewarding personal growth opportunity that many define as “Life-Changing.” For over a decade, I’ve helped clients thrive personally & professionally as they learn to heal/manage: 1) Mental Health 2) Self-Confidence 3) Imposter Syndrome and 4) Relationships. Through experience gained in the US & abroad, I’ve developed a therapeutic style described as empowering, collaborative & interactive. I truly believe each client is HUMAN, & not their symptoms, life stressors, or illness.

Waitlist for new clients
Hello ! So, here we are ……..welcome ! We all have what I call “holes in the soul”: hurts, regrets, anger, grief & loss, unmet needs that occur or have resurfaced. If we go too much in the past, we are depressed; if too much in the future, we are anxious. Improving the quality of our lives is not just in ‘surviving’, but in working to move beyond it to LIVE, with better coping skills & relatedness, more awareness, yet balanced and at peace. It's SO about nurturance, trust, & connection !

Dealing with mental health concerns can be overwhelming, isolating, and exhausting, which is why it is so important for people to have access to evidence-based care. I specialize in helping individuals dealing with anxiety (e.g., panic attacks, social anxiety, general worry, phobias, health anxiety, emetophobia, and more) and obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD). I am grateful to be able to help clients find more peace and grow their trust and confidence in themselves.

Female Therapists

Does it matter what gender my therapist is?

In general, this is not an important factor, as there is no relationship between a therapist’s gender and their efficacy. Some clients, however, prefer to see therapists of a particular gender, whether due to their own past experiences with men and women, or ingrained beliefs about how people of different genders think and behave. Exploring the roots of such preferences and considering what one wants to address in therapy can help someone determine whether their therapist’s gender truly matters to them.

Should I see a female therapist?

Many people—not just women—prefer to see a female therapist, either because they believe that a woman will be able to relate to their specific challenges (for example, sexism in the workplace) or because they imagine feeling more comfortable disclosing sensitive information to a woman. Such beliefs may not turn out to be accurate, however, and adhering too rigidly to a gender preference can at times hinder a client from finding the best therapeutic match.

Do therapists get specific training to help with women’s concerns?

Therapists are trained to provide care to clients of any gender. However, some therapists—both men and women—may pursue additional training in feminist therapy, gender-specific issues, or women’s mental health. Female clients may wish to ask prospective therapists whether they have received specific training in the client’s primary area(s) of concern, or whether they have worked extensively with women on issues similar to their own.

How can I inquire about a therapist’s experience in treating women?

It’s OK—even encouraged!—to ask a therapist directly whether and how often they have treated women in the past, or whether they have treated women dealing with the client’s most prominent concern(s). Competent therapists will be happy to share their educational background, preferred treatment modalities, and prior client experience to help an individual find the therapist best suited to their needs.
