When providing therapy, my goal is for us to develop a trusting therapeutic relationship in which our work together leads to you living a life with increased meaning and fulfillment. This can involve navigating through barriers such as depression, anxiety, relationship problems, trauma, problematic/compulsive behaviors, lack of direction, etc. Often this includes identifying barriers, personal values that really matter, stories we tell ourselves that are no longer serving helpful purposes, deepening understandings of ourselves and relationships, and implementing strategies that improve quality of life.

Life transitions and stressors can be difficult and cause trouble for all of us as we move through them. I have a collaborative, supportive approach to therapy, and assist clients in gaining insight and skills in order to achieve their goals. I provide psychotherapy to both adults and teens, as well as couples. I help my clients process through and better cope with life stressors, such as relationship issues, family dynamics (past and present), career stressors, infertility and grief and loss.

I believe one of the most courageous things a person can do is be vulnerable enough to ask for help, and I find the collaboration in the therapeutic relationship between a therapist and client to be one of the most inspiring processes there is. Clients come to therapy for a variety of reasons: the desire to change patterns (internal or behavioral), understand themselves more fully, or to process experiences, to name a few. I appreciate clients who are able to come to the therapeutic space from an open place, even when such an experience is laced with uncertainty or some fear. (My availability is limited to daytime hours.)

Therapy can offer hope during times of depression or anxiety, when dealing with past or current trauma, or when making major life changes. It can also help you to respond thoughtfully and creatively rather than anxiously or destructively. I am a firm believer in learning to be open and curious about yourself, instead of using judgement or harsh self criticism. We'll work together to identify strengths you can use when making important life changes and, to build coping skills to navigate difficult emotions, trust and relationship issues, and old beliefs you might have about yourself.

About Alice: While I loved growing up in Chicago enjoying the elements of big city living along with amazing food and Lake Michigan I never looked back when I moved to Colorado. I relocated to pursue my masters and going to the University of Denver confirmed social work was the right career path for me. Before starting at Colorado Center for Couples and Families, I was able to work with survivors of intimate partner abuse. That experience has made me proficient in domestic violence and emphasized the importance of trauma informed care.

Therapy is a shared journey that requires trust and investment on both ends. I know that this kind of trust can take time to build. As such, I will always offer patience, understanding, and an open mind regarding anything that may be on your path. I will also always welcome your questions, curiosities, and critiques, and strive to respond in an open, honest, and direct manner. As a counselor, I recognize that our social locations and differing experiences affect our perspectives and approaches to the world, and I hold this in mind as I work with clients.

If you're looking this page over, you're likely wondering if therapy with me could improve your life. If you are in the middle of a major change or looking to make one, I might be your guy. Most of us find major changes difficult because the skills and knowledge we have isn't geared for what we're hoping to do next. This is where having an outside perspective can go a long way. I love helping people in these transitions and have built my practice to make sure you get the best care possible.

Is everyone in the Psychology Today Therapy Directory a licensed therapist?
The Psychology Today directory lists providers who offer legitimate mental health services to the public, including psychologists, psychiatrists, social workers, and counselors.
Many have been licensed by the country or state where they practice; providers whose license or primary credential has been verified by Psychology Today are signified by a “Verified” symbol. Some clinicians or organizations provide services for which their state or country does not offer licenses, such as pastoral counseling. They may be selectively included without the “Verified” seal.

What’s the difference between a psychologist, a therapist, and a counselor?
Therapists, psychologists, and counselors are all licensed mental health professionals. In the US, psychologists have earned a doctoral degree. The terms “therapist” and “counselor” are used somewhat interchangeably, but generally therapists offer longer-term, mental health care, while counselors offer shorter-term care that may focus on one domain, such as marriage, career, or academic challenges.
Clients should consider factors such as insurance coverage and their primary reason(s) for seeking therapy to determine the type of professional best suited to their needs. Someone struggling with mental health challenges such as depression or anxiety, for example, may wish to seek out a clinical psychologist or therapist, while someone navigating career obstacles or marital upheaval may benefit from seeing a counselor who can offer short-term, targeted support.

What type of therapy is right for me?
The type of therapy best suited to a particular individual depends on several factors, including their primary reason for seeking therapy, their preferred timeline (some therapy types last for a set number of sessions, while others are open-ended), and their personality and preferences—some may prefer a more structured approach. For many individuals, multiple types of therapy could provide a good fit.
How much does therapy cost?
The cost of therapy depends on a number of variables, including location and the therapist’s experience and training. On average, a therapy session in the United States could cost between $100 and $200 or more. If you have insurance, the expense of mental health care is typically lower, but it varies based on your insurance plan details and whether you choose an in-network or out-of-network mental healthcare provider.
What are more affordable or low cost therapy solutions?
Many therapists offer sliding scale payments, usually on a limited number of slots, which consists in an agreement between the therapist and a client to pay a reduced rate. Therapists who provide such arrangements often consider the client's income or ability to pay, but the extent of the discount is ultimately at the therapist's discretion. Furthermore, while group therapy may have different goals and benefits compared to individual therapy, it can be a more affordable solution to address certain types of issues.
Is online therapy cheaper than in-person therapy?
Many therapists charge the same amount for online therapy as they do for in-person therapy—though clients may still find this cost-effective if it cuts down on their transportation costs. Health insurance plans often offer equivalent coverage for online and in-person therapy; indeed, in many places, they are legally required to do so. Text-based or on-demand therapy apps may be cheaper than traditional one-on-one psychotherapy; however, the practice may be less effective and is not likely to be covered by insurance.
Is online therapy a good option?
Therapy conducted online can be just as effective as in-person therapy, as long as there is a strong alliance between the client and the therapist. To find a therapist who provides telehealth services to clients in your area, click “Online Therapy” on the directory homepage and search by your city or town or your zip code.
Are therapy sessions confidential?
Confidentiality is a crucial part of the therapeutic relationship. Therapists in the United States are bound by the regulations set out by the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996 (HIPAA), which aims to protect sensitive health information. With very few exceptions, a therapist will only discuss their client with others when the client has given their written permission. The instances in which a therapist would be required to disclose personal information are: if a client poses a danger to themselves or others, if the therapist suspects the abuse of a child or an elderly or otherwise dependent adult, or if they are legally forced to by court order. These exceptions to the confidentiality agreement are usually discussed with a client before their first session.
