Colorado & Illinois - Trauma-Informed Therapist + Psilocybin-Assisted Healing: If you’re feeling untethered, overwhelmed, or simply ready for something to shift, you’re in the right place. I work with older teens and adults navigating trauma, anxiety, depression, burnout, relationship struggles, identity transitions, grief, anxiety and those moments in life when everything can feel “stuck.” My style is warm, direct, collaborative, and rooted in the belief that people heal when they’re met with genuine presence and honest conversation. I hold an MSW from the University of Chicago and am licensed in both Illinois and Colorado.
I am certified in psilocybin-assisted therapy in Colorado and partner with a small number of healing centers to offer guided experiences for clients who want to engage in deep therapeutic work using this modality. Preparation and integration are central to the process, and we work together to determine if, when, and how this kind of work fits your goals.
Whether you’re seeking traditional talk therapy or exploring psychedelic-assisted healing, reach out when you’re ready, and we can talk through what you’re navigating and what you hope for next. If you’re looking for thoughtful, evidence-based therapy with room for depth, complexity, humor, and humanity — I'd be glad to talk about what healing looks like.
