Find Your Counselor

You don't have to have it all figured out to start moving forward. The goal isn't to 'fix' you---it's to help you feel more like yourself. As a therapist, I’m here to help you stop just “getting by” and start feeling truly connected—to yourself and the people who matter most. Whether you're navigating relationship struggles, loss, major life changes, or just feeling stuck, I offer a grounded, compassionate space where you can unpack what’s weighing you down. With over 10 years of experience and a focus on mindfulness and practical tools, I’ll help you break patterns that no longer serve you and build the confidence to live more fully and honestly. Let’s work together to create the change you’ve been craving.

I am a board-certified psychiatric nurse practitioner with seven years of experience in psychiatry and medication management. I've had the privilege of helping individuals of all ages and backgrounds overcome a variety of mental health challenges, from depression and anxiety to more complex conditions like bipolar disorder and schizophrenia. Throughout my career, I've become increasingly passionate about the importance of accessible mental health care. I firmly believe that everyone should have access to high-quality mental health services, regardless of their age, socioeconomic status, or lifestyle. Unfortunately, many barriers to care still prevent people from getting the help they need, such as long wait times, limited insurance coverage, and stigmatization. That's why I've made it my mission to provide compassionate, evidence-based care that is accessible and inclusive to all. Whether you're struggling with a mental health issue for the first time or have been living with a condition for years, I'm here to help. My approach is collaborative and tailored to each individual's unique needs and goals, and I always strive to create a safe and non-judgmental space where my clients can feel heard and supported. Thank you for taking the time to read about me. If you have any questions or would like to schedule a consultation, please don't hesitate to reach out!

"It's not about what it is, it's about what it can become." One of my favorite quotes from Dr. Seuss; his wise words sum up my approach to working with any client, from preschool age to midlife. I believe in transparency and client empowerment; YOU are the one who decides what your goals are. My hope and my goal are to help you work through whatever obstacles you may face and develop a roadmap for success. With several years of experience in trauma therapy, I believe in establishing a safe environment, and I promise all of my clients that their voices will be heard. I look forward to working with you and discovering what can become of the journey we take together!

I believe everyone should have access to counseling and the opportunity to feel truly seen, heard, and supported. With experience working with children, adults, individuals living with substance use, and those impacted by social injustice, I bring a person-centered, solution-focused, and trauma-informed approach to every interaction. My lived experience deepens my empathy, while cultural humility keeps me grounded and open to continual learning. It’s a privilege to walk alongside others on their path to healing and empowerment.

I believe that life and mental health are a journey. My job is to walk alongside you on this journey until you feel comfortable navigating life on your own. Therapy is essential for unlocking the best versions of ourselves. I am an LPCC in the state of Colorado, and I look forward to working with you. I have worked in mental health for the past seven years, including roles as a mental health technician in a hospital, answering crisis intervention phone lines, providing in-person crisis intervention, and offering individual clinical mental health therapy. It can be challenging to navigate life's twists and turns alone. Therapy provides a safe space to explore our inner selves, thoughts, and feelings, gaining insights to overcome obstacles and achieve personal growth. As your therapist, my role is to provide unwavering support and guidance as you embark on this journey of self-discovery.

One of the strongest predictors of success in therapy is the connection you share with your therapist, so finding the best fit is an important first step! I believe in the "therapeutic relationship," developing a relationship of trust and respect. We will work together to find the approach that best fits you—your needs, goals, and unique situation. My focus is to provide a safe place to be heard, understood, and supported. No matter where you are on your journey, I will meet you there, and together we will maximize your potential and develop a greater appreciation for yourself and your ability to reach your goals. Long-term change is a process. You possess within you all the skills and tools necessary for change. I will assist you in discovering and learning how to utilize those tools in the most effective ways. I look forward to helping you find answers, direction, healing, and wellness. In therapy, many issues are openly discussed, but sex and sexual issues can be uncomfortable topics for many clients. Yet, many people have sexual issues that need to be resolved in order for life to be as fulfilling as it can be. I am particularly passionate about working with women who are struggling with intimacy of any kind and are dedicated to improving this area of their lives. I also enjoy working with couples to assist them in determining the underlying issues causing strife in their relationships, rebuilding after infidelity, or increasing their ability to understand one another in order to help them design a marriage they can confidently pursue for a lifetime.

The hardest part of the therapeutic process is reaching the door of the therapist. I believe that the work begins at that moment. The relationship you develop with your therapist is essential to feel and know you are "heard." Holding space for people and finding a way to the light of healing is crucial. Change occurs when a person is willing to bring the issue or issues into the light. As a therapist, my goal is to assist you in finding deeper meaning and healing. My position is to help you through the process. I look forward to helping you along the journey of healing.

I believe that healing happens in a safe, compassionate space where your story is heard without judgment. As a therapist, I see you as the expert of your own experience — my role is not to ‘fix you,’ but to walk alongside you, offering tools, perspective, and encouragement as you navigate life’s challenges. I work with individuals who are moving through trauma, anxiety, major life transitions, questions of self-identity, and the impact of societal pressures. My practice is rooted in respect for each person’s unique journey, and I am proudly LGBTQIA+ affirming. In our work together, I often draw on Accelerated Resolution Therapy (ART), a powerful approach that helps people process and heal from distressing memories without having to re-live every detail. I also integrate other evidence-based methods tailored to your needs, always keeping our sessions collaborative and client-centered. If you’re ready to explore, heal, and grow at your own pace, I’m here to offer a safe space where you can feel supported and truly seen.

As a dedicated mental health professional with a focus on cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), I am committed to helping clients identify and navigate their conscious and subconscious thoughts and feelings. My approach is centered on fostering overall well-being and empowerment, guiding you toward reenergizing your life and achieving your mental health goals. With a unique background as a military combat veteran and law enforcement officer, I bring a deep understanding of the challenges faced by individuals in high-stress professions. I recognize the complexities of experiences such as PTSD, anxiety, relationship difficulties, and various stressors that can impact personal and professional life. My lived experiences allow me to relate to clients on a profound level, fostering a safe and supportive environment for healing. In addition to addressing issues such as self-harm and depression, I am also equipped to support clients navigating faith-based and spiritual struggles. Together, we will explore therapeutic approaches tailored to your individual needs, helping you find the best path forward toward mental health and wellness. I invite you to embark on this journey with me, where your well-being is the priority, and together we can work towards a brighter, more fulfilling future.

I am here to guide and support you as you work through difficult emotions and experiences, helping you to uncover hidden strengths and develop new coping strategies. I strive to create a safe, non-judgmental, and supportive space where you can openly explore your emotions, identify patterns or behaviors that no longer serve you, and set meaningful goals for personal growth.
