I have been working in mental health for over five years in a variety of settings and completed my Master of Arts in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from the University of Colorado Denver in 2021. I work with adults to treat a variety of concerns including depression and anxiety, individuals navigating life transitions, identity development, stress, grief and loss, and relationship conflict. I love working with adults who seek to build trust and compassion for themselves and utilize DBT, CBT, IFS and SFBT along with a collaborative and strengths-based approach.

To speak of one’s experience can open the door to self-examination and potential change. By giving voice to thoughts that are otherwise left unsaid, it’s possible to both articulate one’s pain and find ways out of suffering. As a clinician, I seek to give each individual room to speak freely and openly about their experience of life, without offering prescriptive solutions to unique concerns. My clinical approach is primarily psychoanalytic and psychodynamic, where I invite people to speak of their experience without censoring their thoughts, leaving room for the expression of something unexpected. I also draw from other practices, including cognitive behavioral therapy and narrative therapy, if they suit a particular client or situation. Just as each individual is different, so is every treatment.

“I feel stuck in my thoughts, like I can’t turn off my mind.” “The anxiety is exhausting—I can’t remember the last time I truly felt at ease.” “I don’t know how to move forward.” Healing doesn’t mean erasing your past—it means learning how to navigate it in a way that no longer holds you back. Anxiety, depression, and trauma can make you feel disconnected from yourself and the world around you. You might find yourself caught in cycles of overthinking, self-doubt, or emotional overwhelm. But you don’t have to go through it alone. Together, we will create a space where you feel safe, seen, and empowered to move toward healing. I specialize in helping individuals manage anxiety, depression, trauma, life transitions, and emotional dysregulation. Using CBT and mindfulness, I support you in building coping skills, managing distress, and reconnecting with yourself. My approach is warm, collaborative, and nonjudgmental—you’re the expert in your life, and I’m here to support you. If you're ready to take the next step toward healing, I invite you to reach out. Message me today to set up your free consultation. Let’s begin this journey together.

“I wish I felt more connected to my friends and family.” “For some reason, nothing brings me joy anymore.” “I wish I could move on from what happened in the past.” Let’s embrace this journey together. Everyone needs a safe space to share without fear of judgment—I hope to be that for you. My job is to support you unconditionally in your unique quest to be happier, healthier, and more fulfilled. I am passionate about counseling those struggling with anxiety, depression, neurodivergent challenges, family/relationship complications, and LGBTQIA+ issues. I believe YOU are the expert of YOU. Together, we can unravel the tangled interconnection between your thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and work towards establishing a healthier inner voice that will empower you toward your goals. Using evidence-based methods, we will develop a treatment plan together that is unique and right for you. If you feel we may be a good fit, don’t hesitate to reach out for a consultation.

It’s okay if you’re not sure where to begin. Life can feel overwhelming, and sometimes it’s hard to pinpoint exactly what’s causing the discomfort, whether it’s anxiety, depression, trauma, or a major life transition. What matters is that you’re ready to start, and I’m here to help you figure out the next steps, no matter how small. Together, we’ll explore what’s holding you back and find a way forward that feels more aligned with who you truly are. I work with individuals, couples, and families who are ready to get curious about themselves and create change that sticks. My goal is to help you feel safe enough to be real, and supported enough to take meaningful steps forward. I’ll bring honesty, and the occasional nerdy metaphor. You bring your story, your goals, and whatever you’re ready to unpack. No matter what you're going through, there’s always hope for growth, change, and healing. If you’re ready to begin, I’d love to hear from you. Reach out by phone or message, and together, we can start working on the steps that will bring you closer to the life you envision.

You may feel trapped in cycles of depression or anxiety, struggling with how you relate to yourself, cope with trauma, communicate with others, or navigate relationships. Outwardly, things might appear fine, but internally, self-doubt or disconnection can persist. I connect with clients who are curious about their inner world and want to understand the “why” behind old patterns. Together, we build self-trust, strengthen connections, and create space for clarity, compassion, and ease—both within yourself and in your relationships.

I am passionate about helping individuals navigate life’s challenges. With a warm, client-centered approach, I use a mix of humanistic, strengths-based, CBT, and mindfulness techniques to support clients in processing difficult emotions and discovering their own path toward healing. The focus of this process is collaborating with you, the client, by creating a safe and understanding space, which is the foundation of any successful therapeutic relationship. I enjoy working with teens and adults, particularly those who are neurodiverse, including individuals with Autism Spectrum Disorder and ADHD. I also provide support to people navigating grief and loss, depression, anxiety, and relationship challenges. I tailor each session to meet the unique needs of the individual, creating a compassionate and supportive environment for growth and healing. Healing comes from within, and you are the expert on yourself. It is always my hope to be an empowering force for you in the pursuit of whatever it is you aim to achieve in therapy. In addition to individual therapy, I am also open to working with family systems when needed, recognizing how important these dynamics can be in the healing process. While we may all be individuals, we are constantly operating within systems. If you’re struggling with depression, anxiety, or just need someone to help you work through life’s challenges, I would be honored to walk alongside you on your journey.

I absolutely love helping people feel confident, build healthy coping skills for managing life & relationships, and learn how to trust themselves. I am an art therapist and somatic-informed therapist who enjoys bringing creativity to our process.

If you are someone struggling with anxiety, self-esteem, have experienced trauma, are questioning your sexuality, or simply want support as you move through a life transition. I would love to connect!

I work with children 5 years of age and older, adolescents, and adults. Many clients I work with are struggling with symptoms of anxiety, depression, impulsivity, emotion regulation, relationship issues, family conflict, self-harm behaviors, and/or problems with self-esteem.

I offer sessions virtually and in-person, accommodating after school/evening hours. Please call or email if you feel like this could be the right fit for you or your child. I utilize Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), mindfulness, and play therapy to help clients process emotions and develop skills to cope with these challenges.

My path to becoming a therapist began as a teenager upon experiencing significant traumatic events with the loss of my older brother and cousin. These events developed and deepened my commitment to providing compassionate, empathic responses to those undergoing defining life changes. Now, I place high emphasis on not forgetting life experiences, but expanding on resilience to cope with and honor them. When I’m not in the office, I love spending my free time outside. Hiking, camping, fishing, snowboarding, attending live music shows, and even oil painting – I love it all!

You might be feeling… * “I constantly feel like I’m not doing enough, no matter how hard I try.” * “I’ve been holding it together for everyone else, but inside, I feel like I’m falling apart.” * “No matter what I achieve, it never feels like enough.” * “I don’t know why I feel like this.” * “I feel anxiety is ruining my life.” * “I feel lost.” * “I’m lonely and I don’t know how to connect with people.” * “I don’t know which direction to take in life.” Feeling overwhelmed, lost, or stuck can be incredibly isolating, but you don’t have to navigate it alone.
