Hello and welcome. You may be an individual or a couple seeking to understand how past attachments, fulfillments, or traumas inform your present with the hope of repairing and improving your relationship to Self and others. Or you may be in a life transition and want to engage life with intention, meaning, and authenticity. I help clients explore their life story with curiosity, mindfulness, and loving-kindness. It is my privilege to walk alongside clients in NC, CO, and WI, witnessing them rise from the mud and blossom within this mindful, safe space of existential reflection, forgiveness, acceptance, and rebirth.

You're a deep feeler, a creative thinker, or someone longing for meaning and fulfillment. Maybe you're a healer, therapist, caregiver, or changemaker navigating systems that don’t align with your values. Or maybe you're feeling stuck, burnt out, or disconnected from your creativity or spirituality.
You've overcome trauma, but new changes are bringing up emotions that feel overwhelming. Your coping skills no longer work, and while loved ones want to help, they don’t know how. Beneath it all, your inner child longs to be seen—to dream freely, create without fear, and trust in life again. You're ready to heal, rewrite your story, and

You didn't have a normal childhood. Fear and instability taught you early to keep the world at a distance, and you got very good at the distance. Now you're an adult and you're still holding your breath without noticing. Your nervous system stays on high alert, which leaves you either anxious or numb, with almost nothing in between. Most days you're trapped in your own head, wondering why connecting with the people right in front of you takes so much out of you. “Something must be wrong with me,” you think, though you have never once said that out loud. Painful memories have held you in place long enough. You're ready to heal.

Are you weighed down by anxiety, burdened by the lingering impact of past experiences, and exhausted from the ceaseless pressure to please others? You're so accustomed to being everything for everyone that you've lost sight of who you are, and it feels unsettling even to read a paragraph focused on you. If you’re ready to leave the years of living for everyone except yourself behind, to break free from the confines of trauma and self-doubt, and finally feel excited for your life, you’ve found the right place.

Have you ever thought "why am I here," "everyone would be better off if I wasn't here." Well, you are not alone! As hard as it may be to believe in this moment, you are not here by accident and have a purpose! In my practice, I believe that therapy is a "joint effort" with you and I working together to discover your path to inner peace and emotional regulation to see yourself as strong, powerful, and worthy of love. It is completely normal to feel overwhelmed, unseen, unheard, or just stuck, regardless of who we are or our profession. I see you and I hear you, let me walk with you on this journey of self-discovery.

I’m a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor with over 15 years of experience. I’ve worked with clients in some settings, from substance abuse, community mental health, private outpatient, managed care, and inpatient settings. I love to partner on the journey with clients and assist them in living more balanced, rich, fulfilling lives. I've been a prior consumer of therapy myself and have valued the therapeutic process on a personal level.

I currently work with adults who are seeking to better understand themselves and their interactions with the world around them. Through counseling, I often support individuals who are neurodivergent, LGBTQ+, educators, college students/young adults, and individuals who are going through big life changes (changing careers, moving to a new town, changes in significant relationships). Through counseling I support individuals as they gain a stronger sense of themselves and a deeper understanding of the control that they have over their own life.

The stories that define our lives are powerful, and can impact the way we look at everything. But we also have the ability to rewrite our stories and create new ones that can be better, and even more powerful than the ones we are living by today. If you are feeling stuck, alone, lost, or overwhelmed - you're don't have to keep going on your own. Sometimes rewriting the story we're in the middle of can seem like a totally impossible task, especially without support or a meaningful plan for change. In my work as a therapist, I am passionate about helping my clients feel empowered and equipped to take their narrative back.

My clients are often in a period of transition. They might be feeling stuck, disconnected, or sensing they have outgrown old patterns and identities. They may be navigating anxiety, burnout, relationship challenges, or a deeper awakening. Many are highly self-aware, but unsure how to move forward. My focus is helping them reconnect with their body and intuition, and inner truth, understand their patterns, and create real change so they can move through life with clarity, confidence, and alignment.

Hi, I’m Becky (she/her). I work with people navigating trauma, grief, depression, substance use, and major life transitions, especially those feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or exhausted by what they are carrying. Grounded in a feminist, multicultural lens, I view distress as a response to lived experiences and systems, not personal failure. I integrate IFS, EMDR, CBT and more to help clients understand their inner world, process trauma, and shift unhelpful patterns. Many of my clients are also exploring questions of identity, relationships, spirituality, or recovery, and they're looking for a space where they can show up authentically.

I am IFS Level 2 trained and primarily use this psychospiritual modality in my practice. This involves taking a deep dive into the inner workings of our psyche, and being open to exploring mystical healing. I am also certified in EMDR, which I use to treat both trauma and self-defeating negative beliefs. I work primarily with older adults, caregivers, and women in mid-life who want to finally center their needs and access healing. I regularly facilitate six-week IFS Healing Circles.

I work with children, adolescents, adults, and families who may be feeling overwhelmed, stuck, emotionally exhausted, or unsure of how to navigate life’s challenges. Many of my clients come to therapy struggling with anxiety, depression, OCD, emotional regulation difficulties, behavioral concerns, trauma, stress, relationship challenges, or major life transitions. Some may feel disconnected from themselves or others, while parents may be seeking support in understanding and helping their child.

As a therapist, I enjoy working with individuals who are seeking change in their life, whether that comes through change of circumstance or change of mindset. I understand that change and growth can often be uncomfortable, but necessary. By working with me, you can expect a safe and compassionate place to explore current and past difficulties, process emotions, and work towards wellbeing. I enjoy working with adults who are seeking support in navigating life transitions, processing trauma, managing anxiety, and those working through self-esteem or sex and intimacy concerns.

You might look like you have it all together on the outside, but feel overwhelmed, stuck, or constantly in your own head. Maybe you overthink everything or second guess yourself more than you'd like to admit. Does that sound familiar?
Therapy with me is a place to be real, sort through what's going on, and start making meaningful changes (at a pace that actually feels manageable). We'll work towards a clearer understanding of yourself, more confidence in your decisions, and a greater sense of balance moving forward. It doesn't have to feel heavy all the time - we can keep this work honest, intentional, and grounded.
