No one intends to be in therapy forever. Many clients arrive with familiar worries, yet the deeper concerns beneath those worries often tell a different story. They may say, “I want to fix my anxiety,” “fix my depression,” or “quit vaping weed.” What they’re truly expressing is a desire to flourish, to strengthen their relationships, and to finally move beyond the patterns that keep holding them back. I honor your courage that it takes to pursue meaningful change. As we begin our work together, we draw on a wide range of tools to help you reconnect with yourself and build a life that feels more purposeful, fulfilling, and aligned with who you want to be. Clients leave sessions with renewed hope and practical skills that empower them to face challenges rather than avoid them. You’ll benefit from a therapeutic approach shaped by 15 years of experience and recognized excellence in the field. Reach out today to schedule your complimentary consultation. I guarantee that I'll follow up within three business days.
Letting yourself be vulnerable with a stranger can be scary and I commend you for taking the first step. Using a client-centered approach, my goal is to help you explore, set and reach achievable goals by focusing on strengths and increasing your self awareness of thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. I aim to provide each of my client's with an environment thats safe and supportive while encouraging growth, and self-efficacy. I currently work with adolescents/adults seeking support for anxiety, depression, self-esteem, life transitions, women’s issues, ADHD, stress management.
Hello! I understand the importance of finding someone you will feel comfortable with to discuss difficult times and intimate issues you have endured or are enduring. I will provide a comfortable and safe environment to support you through your journey of life. You will strengthen your inner character and learn new ways of managing change, distress, depression, anxiety, fear, negativity, and traumatic experiences. You will gain self-awareness and establish an array of positive and uplifting ways of thinking. In addition, work towards breaking old habits or ways of thinking that will no longer serve you as you move towards a new and brighter future
I work with you to not just understand what's going on, but also to develop tools to help. Tools to stop panic attacks, tools to manage depression, tools to get organized and figure out what you want in life. We work together to see what works reliably for you. In addition to talking things through, in session and between sessions sometimes you might be writing, sometimes trying a challenging behavior change, sometimes engaging in mindfulness, and sometimes using visualizations. My aim is for you to feel better, and to know what to do to keep feeling better or help yourself if problems resurface. And I try to work efficiently with you, so you are back to your life (and ending therapy) as soon as makes sense for you. Give me a call to set up an initial (free) conversation, at 303-870-9195.

I am a board certified psychiatric mental health and family nurse practitioner with over 20 years’ experience in the medical field.

My heart and passion are in caring for others and assisting my patients achieve their full potential through health and wellness.

If you’re looking for a fellow traveler to walk alongside you through life’s challenges, I am here to support you. Whether you are new to therapy, or therapy is familiar to you, you deserve a space where your whole story is heard and valued. I specialize in working with people who have often felt like the odd person out— like they are navigating worlds that weren’t built for them. Individuals carrying the weight of difficult family dynamics or persistent criticism; or moving through identity shifts or life transitions that leave them unsure of who they are becoming. If that sounds familiar, you’re not alone— and you’re not broken. My approach is active and collaborative because sitting and listening isn't enough to foster meaningful insight. I integrate Psychodynamic psychotherapy & Acceptance & Commitment Therapy (ACT) with a focus on the therapeutic relationship as a catalyst for healing. I use Internal Family Systems (IFS) & sensory calming techniques to settle your nervous system. From the first session our work will feel like a conversation. I am interested in you & learning about the rhythms of your life. We'll talk about your sleep, stress, what and who matters to you, as well as the challenges you're facing. We'll also talk about your history and how it has informed your sense of self. You have the space to decide if we're a fit.
From the very beginning, with sensitivity and compassion, I strive to create a safe and nonjudgmental space in which you can express thoughts, feelings, dreams, and desires that you may feel unable to share elsewhere. I believe that constructive change occurs when we work collaboratively to develop insight into your current struggles; only then can we find ways to help you move forward. I have experience and interest in working with people with anxiety, trauma histories, and relationship issues. I enjoy working with creative people and those who wish to explore various aspects of their identities, including people who are LGBTQ+. Another of my strengths is in helping young people navigate the transition into adulthood. I have been practicing for more than ten years and I have specific training in psychodynamic therapy, mindfulness, and existentially oriented psychotherapy.
Life so far has been fairly manageable. However, you are now experiencing emotions you have never experienced before. Life has changed for better or worse, and you are finding it difficult to cope and comprehend your reaction. It is hard to pinpoint what you are feeling, and it may make it difficult to communicate to the ones you love. Perhaps a specific memory has come up for you and you are taken by surprise. Why is this happening now? You want answers. You want to gain a better understanding of what you are experiencing and how to move forward. My passion lies in helping others build confidence, find their voice, and connect to what matters most within as they navigate the many twists and unexpected turns life may present itself with. It is a great honor to be welcomed into the sharing of one's unique life experiences. I truly enjoy walking alongside the individuals I have the pleasure of working with on their journey to gaining a better understanding of themselves and what they want out of life. If this resonates with you, please do not hesitate to get in touch with me.

I am inspired when I see college-age men and women who are searching for emotional, financial, and intellectual independence. College can be a challenging time of finding identity and intimacy and I assist by helping clarify college relationships. Having gone to college and raising four children, I understand many things about the stages of early adulthood. I offer a safe space to process different parts that may be confusing in order to safely integrate all facets of personality and enhance congruence, agency, and personal power, enabling young adults to grow up healthy, more swiftly than struggling on their own.
Therapy is about YOU and your goals. Clients come to therapy seeking empathic support but also concrete skills to improve their lives. I provide non-judgmental and thoughtful support for teens and adults managing depression, anxiety, and trauma symptoms that disrupt their lives. Clients are able to find connection in therapy and apply strategies to find more joy throughout their daily relationships with themselves and others. I empower clients to harness their courage in facing past and present losses, traumas, and stressors so that they no longer feel trapped or controlled by their experiences.
The ordinary acts of speaking and listening, in the extraordinary context of the psychoanalytic setting, make it possible to discover oneself anew, or perhaps for the very first time. I work with adolescents and adults to explore difficulties in the areas of sexuality, creativity, relationships, work, and play. I aim to create an environment in which you can say anything, paying careful attention to whatever obstacles may stand in the way of speaking freely. My approach is to accompany you through a process whereby something new might happen. -- In addition to my clinical practice, I am a scholar of psychoanalytic theory and history. I hold a PhD in Literature with specializations in feminist and queer theory, cultural studies, and global modernisms.
Navigating life's struggles can be challenging when you are in college facing so many different transitions and having so many new experiences. I see counseling as an opportunity to discover more about yourself and how to live a life that feels meaningful for you. Some of my specialties include work around anxiety, grief, trauma and addiction. I focus on your current challenges and finding ways to overcome them at your pace while in a safe environment. I have worked with people of all ages both individually and as a group facilitator.
