Most people know what it feels like to exist in the world, very few know what it feels like to actually flourish in it. The exhaustion that doesn't have a clear reason, doing everything just right and still feeling like something's missing. Being heard in all the wrong ways, or worse, not being heard at all. The loneliness of being surrounded by people who mean well and still feeling completely unseen. You've spent a long time making yourself manageable, easier for others to understand. Easier for everyone else. I work with teens and young adults who have been surviving, but for whom flourishing has never really been an option.
As your therapist, I want to give you the conditions to grow on your own terms. We'll look at what's been missed, remove what's been suffocating your growth, and figure out together what was always meant to be. Whether you're neurodivergent, navigating a developmental disability, or carrying the weight of caring for everyone else.
I've spent my life watching what happens when someone is underestimated, spoken for, or never quite given the room to grow into their full selves. This is exactly why I do this work, and it's exactly what we'll be building toward. Together.

Accessible care is the baseline with me. I offer a sliding scale between $60-$140 per session, no income verification required. Medicaid accepted along with Anthem BCBS and United/UMR commercial insurance. Quality mental health support shouldn't be tied to what you can or can't afford.

I'm a graduate-level counseling intern finishing my MA at the University of Denver. Newer, yes. But rigorously trained, closely supervised, and bringing a research-informed lens to populations that are too often underserved. And honestly? Excited about every single session we'll have together.

Most of what brings my clients in has been misnamed, misunderstood, or missed entirely. The burnout nobody recognized, the needs that have gone unmet, the version of you that never quite got the space to show up. My role is to finally make space for all of it and help you build something that both actually belongs to you as well as supports you fully.

Therapy with me meets you exactly where you are. For some, that means slowing down and getting curious about what's been missed. For others, it means building concrete skills and a real sense of agency. Either way, we'll move at a pace entirely tailored to you and build the support that actually fits you and your life.
