Kaiser (Out-of-Network) Therapists in Montrose, CO

Throughout life’s journey experiencing struggles, sickness, and loss, we sometimes find ourselves in need of the kind of unbiased support and unconditional positive regard that a counselor can provide. We benefit from the sacred space that’s held just for us during therapy, and the healing that occurs in the relationship between ourselves and the counselor, and of course in the healthier relationship we develop with ourselves and others. When we experience the darkness of depression, overwhelming anxiety, trauma, loss, crisis of identity or faith, or even indecision, our personal guidance systems can become temporarily blocked.

Hi there, and thank you for taking this leap into starting therapy! I work with teenagers ages 12 and up and adults who need extra support and new tools to manage anxiety, depression, stress, trauma, self-harm, and/or suicidal thoughts. I like to provide my clients with tangible skills they can use outside of therapy. I am also passionate about working with people from LGBTQIA+ and gender-nonconforming/expansive communities. Are you ready to change something, but don't know how? Let's work together as a team to figure this out and start moving forward!

My ideal client dares to do the work in therapy and integrate that work outside of the session. I facilitate the creation of secure functioning relationships. For individual clients, that means strong attachment bonds to their sense of self so they can self-regulate and begin to create new opportunities to live a life of beauty, excitement, and exploration. While for my couples therapy clients, we will work on building secure functioning relationships within the partnership through the processes of non-violent communication skills and repairing ruptures promptly.

No one has a perfect life. No matter how perfect it might appear on social media....everyone goes through hard times. At Assessing Alternatives Counseling, we help clients through their hard times, whether those are due to past trauma, abuse, PTSD, sexual orientation/gender identity, relationship issues or anger management.

Hardships and life circumstances often create suffering and obstacles that may appear to be insurmountable on our personal journey to health and happiness. These challenges often blind us to new opportunities, dim the joy and activity in our day-to-day experience, and ultimately can make us feel like a completely different person. However, this same adversity can be the stimulus for incredible growth. When we identify our strength and resiliency, we will rediscover our purpose and create confidence that even future challenges will be met with success.

I use integrative, holistic and evidence-based practices to help those struggling with eating disorders, disordered eating, and trauma. I focus on the integration of somatic, or body-centered therapies to help someone heal both in their mind, and in their body. My hope is to help my clients experience change from the inside out. I also believe in facilitating a culturally sensitive space that rejects assumed beliefs about someone based on their size, shape, gender, race or ethnicity.

Creativity can illuminate our path to healing. Most of us are looking for peace with ourselves, in relationships, and as we move through our world." Individual Counseling and Group Support/ Art Therapy In my work I see individuals or families who are exploring and seeking to heal issues such as loss, depression, anxiety, life transitions, abuse and trauma. I draw on a wide variety of theories: Client-centered, Existential, and Jungian psychology and combine them in a creative way in my practice to provide an integrative approach which is educational, solution-oriented and transformational.
