I believe in the power of telling and owning our stories. We all have different experiences that shape the way we view our lives, others, and the world around us. My heart is for people and giving them the space to safely share their story and process through the experiences they have, both joyous and difficult. As a counselor, I believe in supporting, encouraging, empowering, and motivating my clients to make the changes they want to make while continuing to grow in their development of who they are as a whole-hearted person. I enjoy working with adolescents, young adults, couples, and individuals experiencing any sort of grief or loss transition. If you are looking for someone to support you and navigate through this growth and development, I am here to walk alongside you and empower you on this journey. I believe in a Person-Centered approach that utilizes both Solution-Focused and Cognitive Behavioral techniques to set goals and work towards achieving them. I am Licensed Professional Counselor in the state of Colorado with a Masters Degree in Counseling. I am here to help you find hope for your future and the support you need now to live a whole-hearted life and find healing.

My focus is helping parents, children, and families function cohesively by promoting healthy, meaningful and enriching relationships with each other. I place a strong value on the bond between children and their parents. As your counselor I will help your child grow by working through developmental tasks and important milestones. I utilize creative interventions including play therapy, sand tray therapy, and art therapy. I collaborate closely with parents to ensure that the work done in session is reflected in the home as well. Along with my training, my practice is guided by my personal experience. I was part of a family system that was faced with a sibling’s unresolved mental health needs. Communication was difficult and we lacked a sense of direction. From that point on, I found that my passion was helping children and parents with communication, attachment, emotional, or behavioral needs.

Everyone has a unique story and unique struggles. It is my desire to walk beside you as you navigate the various twists and turns that life can take. I believe that every person can make decisions for themselves, but they don’t need to do it alone. I would love to be part of your transitions and your narrative. It is my goal to be the person that you are able to share your thoughts and feelings with about your life, family, career and future. Together, we will work to make your experience in therapy as unique as you are.

I believe that every individual has a life story that is constantly changing and evolving based on their experiences and choices. I believe that each individual deserves a safe place to tell their story, process life events, and work towards living their best life. I enjoy collaborating with individuals, couples, and families to establish goals and take steps to living meaningful lives. I have worked in a variety of settings with children and families experiencing trauma. I have a M.S. in Clinical Mental Health Counseling and am a Registered Psychotherapist in the state of Colorado. I look forward to meeting you!

I am very passionate about helping clients navigate those areas in their day-to-day lives that can leave them feeling stuck and out of touch.  As someone who has experienced the highs and lows that life can throw at you and having the insight of someone to guide you through these challenges can be very helpful, I bring a very unique perspective and will be there to walk with you and hold space for you as long as it takes.  Using an integrative approach to therapy, the primary focus of my practice is helping couples, families and individuals of all backgrounds navigate through life.  I am completing a Master’s degree in Marriage and Family Therapy at Regis University.

Has there ever been a time when you were afraid to do something, but you did it anyway, and it turned out okay? Sometimes life can be unjust and unfair, even painful or discouraging and the ability to move past those struggles may seem impossible at the time. These emotional, psychological, or interpersonal conflicts can get in the way of living a more full, productive, and satisfying life. As a daughter, sister, wife, mother, and friend who has overcome many of my own adversities and personal challenges, I have developed a passion for helping people become more grounded and develop trust in themselves in order to find meaning and create the life they want to have. I believe each person is one of a kind and therapy is a collaborative and interactive process. I consider it a privilege to share in my clients’ unique stories and work together to identify goals that will promote balance and improve overall well-being. I want to help my clients learn to manage intense emotions, develop purposeful connections, create mutual understanding and improve communication or resolve existing conflicts. You are the author of your life; it is my goal to facilitate conversations that can lead to positive change. I look forward to working with you.

More often than not, life is a mountain, not a beach. It is a journey with unexpected switchbacks and obstacles leading to amazing vistas and a sense of accomplishment. Sometimes we have to endure challenging times or adjust to a “new normal.” We rarely enjoy the struggles. However, I believe our trials help us grow. They develop a deeper sense of self and purpose, and they give us an expanded perspective of our life. Each of us has a unique story, and it is an honor to hear yours! My approach to counseling is client-centered and collaborative. I offer a judgment-free space where you can be yourself. I integrate a variety of theories based on your goals. I counsel from a wellness model which enables clients to achieve balance and wholeness. I believe balance is key as you discover how to thrive, not just survive. I am excited to be a part of your journey as you heal relationships and transform your life.

Many couples feel stuck at some point in their relationship and can’t see a way to reclaim the loving feelings that they once had for one another. Chronic arguing, feeling distant and disconnected, or simply longing for more intimacy can leave couples feeling hopeless.
While every relationship is unique, I believe that no relationship is beyond repair; there is always hope for meaningful reconnection!

Creating a safe space and utilizing your strengths, I help individuals, couples, and families emerge stronger than ever as they engage in the therapy process knowing that the work of therapy is "worth it."  I find abundant meeting to join my clients on their journeys towards healing and growth.  While interning at Denver Counseling Solutions, I am concurrently working towards certification in Emotionally Focused Therapy and in Sex Therapy.
