Teletherapy for Central Boulder - Boulder, CO

I have specialized training to work with both individuals and couples and believe in a collaborative approach to counseling. Although you are the expert on your own life, I will bring my own expertise to shape our work around your goals and needs. My skills and qualifications cover a variety of areas but clients experiencing relational distress, anxiety, difficulty setting boundaries, wanting to work on their relationship with themselves or others, or distress in parenthood may be particularly well suited. I have a passion for helping clients feel more connected, authentic, and engaged in their lives and relationships.

Do you need to heal and move forward after the end of a relationship? Are you having difficulty developing authentic, mutually caring connections with friends or romantic partners? Strong relationships are what make for a happy life and determine whether we feel fulfilled. Together we will untangle the dynamics that keep you from joy and intimacy, allowing you to create the relationships you have always wanted.

I am committed to freeing the blockages in your life, relationships, passions and work. I support individuals & couples using mindfulness, somatic and experiential techniques that access deeper material than is usually accessed through traditional talk therapy alone. I have substantial experience working with anxiety, trauma, grief, depression and relationship issues. It takes true courage to reach out for support but finding the right support is even more important. Because the most important factor in success in therapy is the personal relationship we have with each other, I see this work as a mutual process we co-create together.

I am a trauma-informed, gender-affirming therapist working with people from a wide variety of backgrounds and experiences including childhood sexual abuse, divorce, grief, and other delicate places where life and beliefs often collide. My integrative approach to therapy promotes healing, wholeness, and lasting change.

My areas of expertise include life transition, grief/loss, sexuality, gender identity, faith, and spirituality.

Please note as of April 2024 - I'm accepting couples on a limited basis only. Space is open for individuals. I support relationships of all sexuality and gender identities with reclaiming their relationship from painful arguments, disempowering assumptions, and disconnection.

A seed grows with no sound, but a tree falls with huge noise. Destruction has noise, but creation is quiet. This is the power of silence. Grow silently. - Confucius... To grow silently means to go within, to be aware, to have courage in the face of fear. If you're struggling with addiction, trauma, grief, anxiety/depression, boundaries and learning to be assertive or trying to find your meaning and purpose in world filled with noise. Then perhaps I can be of help.

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.

Many of the clients I work with recognize the soul even if they call it something else like spirit or Self. Regardless of what we call this depth we often arrive at crossings in life where that center is lost, buried, or suffering. These can be painful crossings, with subtle and sometimes disturbing pleas for a return to adventure, more imagination, trauma sensitivity, exploration of sharing our gifts - and pursuit of a more meaningful life.

What happens when we cannot show the most vulnerable and truthful parts of ourselves? Suffering. Fear. Frustration. Incongruence.

Our world, our relationships, and our minds often present us with challenges too difficult to work out on our own. These challenges can bar us from intimate contact with ourselves and others. They often take over our life, or makes certain parts of it unbearable. And if you are seeking out ways to work with them, I whole-heartedly salute you. My counseling is client-centered, mindfulness-based, and attachment-informed. This means that you choose what we work on, I help you to explore it in the present moment, and we use the power of relationship and care in that exploration.

Have you found it difficult to cope lately? Are you struggling to get through each day? Far too often we struggle internally, not knowing where to turn. I believe that we all need an opportunity to understand ourselves, our experiences, and our relationships with greater clarity. I want to help you become a better problem solver no matter how big or small your problems are.
