Internal Family Systems (IFS) Therapists in 80302

Adverse or traumatic experiences can be stored in our bodies and in our unconscious/subconscious minds, driving our behaviors and affecting our natural impulses that allow us to thrive. My clients seek freedom from out-dated mental and bodily reactions derived from these past experiences and/or traumatic events. They want their choice restored when making decisions, for cultivating and sustaining relationships, and in creating a meaningful life.

Seeking therapy can be a daunting task, and I am here to provide a safe and supportive space to explore your thoughts and emotions. As a therapist, my primary goal is to your well-being and personal growth. Your trust is paramount to our work together, and I am committed to maintaining a confidential, respectful, and empathetic environment. Your experiences are valid, and together, we will explore them with care and attention. I will work collaboratively with you to address your unique needs, drawing upon evidence-based techniques and my experience to support you in your journey.

You have a calling to know yourself more completely, to make lasting changes in habitual pattens, to engage in the deep healing of unconscious unfinished business, and to integrate awakened insights fully into the body, into relationships, and into your life in the world. We get to know each other to build trust, identify areas for exploration, and then we dive. The therapeutic experience involves transformational epiphanies and the processing of hidden and stuck emotions. I gently challenge my clients to lean into uncomfortable places and build the tolerance for psycho-spiritual unfolding. See my website for more information.

As a relational therapist, I imagine you're here to transform the conflicts & hurt in your relationship/s into safe and secure spaces - spaces that offer true intimacy and a sense of meaning. I imagine you want a therapist who accesses intuition and asks pointed questions to get to the depth and heart of the matter; one who is sensitive, yet courageous and direct. In my practice, I provide therapy to intimate partnerships, adult families, and individuals. I help you fiercely and gently engage discomfort, access emotional truths, voice needs, navigate difference, repair ruptures, and move toward renewed and deepened connection.

Welcome! You can live the life you want! Therapy is not about living a stress-free life, but rather learning how to navigate your stress with confidence and skill. Together we will uncover what is holding you back and move in the direction of your happiness and goals. Are you challenged by a life transition? Feeling stuck in recurring patterns? Realizing you aren't living up to your potential, but unsure how to create lasting, positive change? Are you feeling anxious, depressed, overwhelmed, unclear about what to do next or how to handle a situation? Please call and let me help.

You’re probably here because you are feeling in over your head. Maybe you are feeling the weight of depression, anxiety, grief or overwhelm. Perhaps you’re struggling in a relationship that is important to you, or you recently lost someone you love. Perhaps you have looping negative self-talk or memories that won’t let you sleep. Or maybe you are going through a life-transition and determined to stop repeating patterns that don’t work. You know you need help, yet you want things to change this time.

A healthy and connected relationship lays the foundation for a vibrant and meaningful life. If issues with conflict, parenting, infidelity, money, housework or past hurts are clouding your marriage, couples therapy will offer you more clarity and compassion for yourself and part. In individual therapy, I can support you in self discovery, unwinding harmful patterns, and processing trauma. Inviting and integrating all parts of your experience increases presence and availability for your family, work and relationships.

I work with individuals who are experiencing depression, anxiety, and Complex PTSD, especially those who feel emotionally overwhelmed, have difficulty setting boundaries, feel disconnected from themselves, and struggle with rescuing/fixing others at their expense. I have a passion for working with those struggling with codependency and perfectionism, including patterns of self-abandonment, avoidance, low self-esteem, denial, control, and compliance in relationships.

I help people move through the stuckness that is blocking their full potential.

We are all a product of our stories; the good, the bad, and everything between. Many times, we aren’t aware of how rooted we are in past beliefs and relationship narratives or how deeply they’ve impacted our current choices and decisions. Therapy allows us to uncover the different sides of ourselves, to unlearn unhelpful beliefs and to emphasize positive ones. Together, we can create a collaborative environment that will help you gain a greater sense of self-awareness. I specialize in treating trauma, anxiety, depression and PTSD with a range of modalities including EMDR therapy, IFS and Accelerated Resolution Therapy.

Being human is complex and sometimes painful. With a foundation of trauma-sensitive mindfulness, I collaboratively create a client-centered space for individuals and couples to uncover obstacles that block aliveness, connection, safety, and joy. With an awake heart, clarity, and nonjudgmental presence, I help clients find perspective, make meaning of difficulties, access innate wisdom, and gain skills to emerge into freedom. From queer lineages and Celtic ancestry, I am a queer, gender-variant-femme, poet and Buddhist practitioner who derives inspiration and purpose from the forces of nature, meditation, and relationships.

I help high-achieving, do-it-all women overcome chronic pain, anxiety and burnout to live a more joyful and restful life. Often, our bodies give us cues that it’s time to slow down while our minds push us to keep going. We have learned that expectations, responsibilities and productivity take priority over our own care and needs. Maybe you have tried to power through your body’s cues over and over again only to feel stuck, exhausted, and unsure of how to find relief. Our work together will empower you to come back to yourself, to tend to your body and nervous system and to feel more present, connected and at ease.
