I have served individuals and couples in the Denver metropolitan area for over 22 years. I use a holistic approach. I specialize in depression and other mood disorders, anxiety disorders and stress, trauma, bipolar disorder and personality disorders, as well as relationship issues and other life issues. I use a mindfulness-based cognitive-behavioral approach, along with various other techniques such as cognitive reappraisal to help my clients formulate and meet their goals for personal change. I try to be solution-focused, but also use depth psychology for long-term issues.
Starting therapy can be a very big step, but I can guarantee it will lead to a positive outcome no matter what the issue. Talk therapy can be extremely helpful, but I also offer tools, knowledge and help with developing skills such as emotional regulation, healthy communication, managing negative thought patterns, and finding peace and joy.
Many people are nervous about starting a therapeutic relationship, but, during our first session, most people are pleasantly surprised and hopeful that they have taken the right step for their future health and happiness.
