The therapeutic space is one which asks people to approach difficult experiences, relationships, behaviors, emotions or parts of themselves, that for a multitude of reasons has been too painful or frightening to confront. My role is to partner with you in facing these difficulties, and provide a safe and empathic space in which exploration, increased insight and self awareness, make change possible. I address individual needs through integrating modalities such as CBT, DBT, skills/coping techniques, and psychodynamic psychotherapy. I am committed to working with clients towards the goals and growth they seek for themselves.

I support individuals struggling to manage symptoms of anxiety, panic disorders, depression, interpersonal relationships, self-esteem, and major life transitions. My approach to treatment is rooted in acceptance, curiosity and collaboration. I create a safe and relatable space for you to explore your thoughts and feelings, identify healthy coping skills and build sustainable and lasting change.

I am a licensed clinical psychologist who offers individual, couples, and group psychotherapy to adults across the lifespan seeking treatment for depression, anxiety, trauma and abuse, and grief and bereavement. I also believe therapy offers an opportunity for exploration of questions not necessarily tied to discrete symptoms, including those related to identity and interpersonal relationships.

When the time comes to make a change, it takes courage to ask for support. To be one who can respond to that request is a privilege. Starting in community mental health (access for all) and moving into my private practice, I have had experience working with depression, anxiety, relationship issues, and grieving with adults, children, couples, and the LGBTQ community. I specialize in working with people who have a history of trauma, big and small, and varied relational issues. I integrate my psychodynamic and relational training with long- or short-term, problem focused psychotherapeutic work as well as EMDR treatment.

I am a psychologist with a relational, process-oriented approach to treatment. My approach and manner is collaborative and rooted in the theories of psychodynamic psychotherapy.

I am a licensed clinical psychologist who holds a Psy.D from the University of Denver’s Graduate School of Professional Psychology. I have experience working with adults, adolescents, and couples. My approach to therapy is integrative, with a foundation in psychodynamic and intersubjective work that illuminates affect and facilitates the articulation of the patterns that form each person’s unique narrative. I enjoy working with people who enter therapy with various presentations, including depression, anxiety, identity exploration, relational trauma, life transitions, and complex relational dynamics.

There are times in life when our usual coping strategies and support networks are not enough and feelings such as anxiety, depression, helplessness, and inadequacy can take over. It is at these times that psychotherapy can help to successfully navigate life's challenges. I help clients to better understand how past and current experiences impact their current wellbeing, and to make positive changes that will contribute to improved feelings of competence in managing relationships, changes, and other stressors more productively. I specialize in working with individuals who may be struggling with anxiety, depression, anger, relationships, life transitions, parenting, and loss.

Numerous factors influenced my decision to pursue counseling, with the primary motivation being my desire to assist individuals in improving their quality of life. At the core of my approach as a clinician is a firm conviction in the importance of fostering a secure and trusting therapeutic connection. It's vital for me, as your counselor, to ensure a safe environment where clients (such as yourself!) can receive support characterized by sincerity and empathy. In collaboration, we will aim for positive changes in your life, harness your strengths, achieve your therapeutic objectives, and alleviate your discomfort.

Whether you're making the decision to begin therapy, or starting a new relationship with a provider, the search for a therapist can be overwhelming. I applaud your efforts to search for support, and hope this an opportunity to make the change you've been hoping to see. In my practice I follow your lead and pace to help identify and address any obstacles that stop you from having a fulfilling, meaningful life. No matter the source or length of your stress, my work is rooted in helping you build a compassionate relationship with yourself, while navigating every day living with as much ease, enjoyment and confidence as possible.

My role as a therapist is to help you navigate life's challenges. Therapy is an opportunity to explore parts of yourself that might be causing distress. It allows you the ability to process and release emotions that have previously caused you to feel stuck, to recognize patterns in behavior and relationships over time, and to assert your needs in order to feel safe. My approach is relational and psychodynamic and I work from the understanding that our earliest attachments inform the way we engage in our present day relationships.

Difficult experiences and painful relationships can affect our connection with our bodies, as well as our identities, and our sense of self-worth. As we begin to heal our relationship with ourselves, we can expand the ways in which we show up in our lives. I offer a non-judgmental and reflective space to process and explore your past, present, and future, with the goal of helping you identify and work through opportunities for growth and healing. Together we'll embark on a path to help you understand what barriers are present. You will learn to prioritize and trust in yourself, while developing tools to care for your mental health.

Feel like something is holding you back from your potential and goals or like you aren't able to access your true self? Are you craving connection, meaning and deepening? Life stressors or transitions may feel overwhelming, or you may be feeling stagnant/stuck and unable to attain goals. Life situations and circumstances that challenge you are often the most rewarding and formative; yet adapting and managing your thoughts, feelings and behaviors in collaboration with a seasoned therapist can often make the process more manageable and the outcomes more productive and in alignment with your values.

Are you feeling upset, overwhelmed or lacking confidence due to transitions in your life? Adapting to a change, even if it is wanted and expected, can be challenging. Life changes can involve losses such as the end of a relationship, a death or job reversal; but positive changes, like leaving for college, entering the work force, becoming a new parent and relocating can also be stressful and scary. People often fear and avoid change causing them to feel stuck and leading to missed opportunities.

Psychotherapy is the process of facing obstacles that block our growth. In a trusting therapeutic relationship one can learn to let go of fears and unhealthy patterns of behavior. Together we will create an environment where curiosity, intellect, feelings and humor allow one to evolve and change.
