Are you navigating the challenges of trauma, anxiety, depression, or complex feelings around relationships or identity? You may feel overwhelmed by internal conflicts or a sense of disconnection from yourself and others. This is a judgement-free space where you can explore your sense of Self and heal with compassion. My goal is to help you build a life that feels authentic, balanced, and meaningful, where your past no longer controls your present or future. I am passionate about matters of identity, race, culture, and social justice.

I use a liberatory and collaborative approach that honors your story and strengths. We will explore patterns shaping your emotions and relationships using evidence-based methods from Internal Family Systems (IFS) and contemporary psychodynamic therapies. My focus is to help you find clarity, resilience, and peace as you work toward the life you envision.

If you are in Colorado, I invite you to schedule a free 15-minute consultation. This is a no-pressure chance to ask any questions and see if we are a good fit. Reach out today so we can start creating the meaningful change you deserve. Both in-person and telehealth sessions are available.
