People don't usually seek counseling because everything feels like "sunshine and rainbows". Typically, if you're here, you're hoping to motivate change in your life. If you are finding yourself stuck in the same patterns, having the same fights and struggling with the same problems, counseling may be a good fit for you. While there is no guarantee to a happier or 'better' you, I believe that counseling is a great place to start. As your counselor, we can work together to create a safe & comfortable place for you to explore tough moments in life, where learning, growth, (and even change!), occur.

If you enjoy animals, nature or people, you already have a powerful foundation to create stability and momentum in your life. What you might struggle with isn't a label. It's an experience. Start where you're at, and explore it with somebody who will start there with you. Need change or just greater balance? Want more out of life? On a journey, but somehow lost? Feeling stuck, apathetic, burnt out or anxious is not uncommon! However, the tools and how to use them are not always obvious. Animal assisted, experiential, mindfulness and nature-based therapies are most clients' favorite tools.

Who listens to you? Perhaps your relationships are strained, or you're going through a major life transition. Trauma, marriage, births, divorce, career changes, and death are just some major life changes that emotionally trap and isolate us. If you've realized only you can make needed changes, then now is the time to take action. I work with individuals, directly focusing on working through and integrating events, helping accepting a new identity, and encouraging strengths to achieve goals. Life hits hard, know yourself, and learn to overcome and conquer your fears.

Are you trying your best to parent your child or teen, but know that they need more support? Do you wish that family life felt more peaceful? Is your teen starting to struggle with depression or anxiety? At Panorama Psychology, we provide in-person and virtual services for children, teens, and families to support healthy adjustment, effective communication, and healing. We integrate a variety of approaches including cognitive-behavioral techniques (CBT), acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT), psychodynamic therapy, and mindfulness. Most importantly, we will create a space to explore your difficulties together, without judgment.

Welcome! Life can be difficult. Sometimes we are hurt by things in our present and sometimes things have hurt us from the past. There are even times we hurt and are unsure why and how to handle that pain. It is admirable to be addressing them. I've been working in the mental health field for over a decade and have found the power and vitality of therapy to be an amazing wonder. I look forward to addressing these issues collaboratively and building a future you desire.

Oftentimes in life we find ourselves stuck and uncertain how to move forward. Whether it's anxiety, grief, depression, trauma, difficulties with a life transition, or another issue, I aim to help each person I work with identify what's holding them back and explore ways to generate momentum toward a more fulfilling life. I work with adults of diverse cultural identities in addressing a wide range of concerns, including anxiety, grief, OCD, trauma, career concerns, substance abuse, depression, stress, relationship problems, bipolar disorders, and ADHD. I also offer psychological testing and assessment.

Whether it is your first time or your one hundredth time to therapy, implementing lasting, authentic change is always difficult. I am here to support you in your journey to change with curiosity, motivation, and humor. My approach to therapy is collaborative, empathetic, and goal-oriented, centered on establishing strong rapport and rooted in evidenced-based treatment. I am particularly passionate about working with adults seeking therapy for anxiety, depression, trauma, therapy for women (including postpartum depression, postpartum anxiety, and infertility counseling), relationship therapy, grief therapy, and self-esteem therapy.

I focus on addressing various issues such as depression, anxiety, self-esteem, life transitions, relationship dynamics, grief, and attachment wounds. My commitment extends beyond the specific issues you face; I aim to guide you toward a life of authenticity, joy, and meaning.

I believe in living a mindful and intentional life, making choices that are meaningful and healthy, while maintaining awareness of our own thoughts, feelings, and how we interact with others. We can sometimes experience difficulties in life when our physical state, thoughts, emotions, behaviors, and social factors all intersect in a way that negatively impacts our well-being. My goal is to help clients by understanding how certain factors may play a role in their development, health, processing, and conflict. Therapy can be most effective and beneficial when there is an approach that considers the whole person.

Many of us feel disconnected. From each other and from ourselves. After 13+ years as a trauma therapist, I’ve realized this is what connects us all. Our disconnection. I now offer something different than traditional 1-1 therapy, because that's what I'm meant to do. I create group containers for women to come together and do cool shit. It’s amazing to see them unlock things that are only possible when done in community. To see exponential growth occur because of the group dynamic.

Have you had a life experience that has led to feelings of grief, disconnection, anxiety, overwhelm, or uncertainty? Maybe you are living in that experience now? Uncertain what the future holds. Do you desire to replace yelling and anger with connection and joy? But keep getting stuck in old patterns and coping mechanisms. I can help! I am a systemic therapist that specializes in helping people overcome anxiety, emotional pain, grief, and uncertainty to find hope and connection in their next chapter in life. Lets collaborate to understand your unique experience, set achievable goals, and create a fulfilling experience of life.

My ideal clients are engaged and willing to take the high road to achieve their long-term goals—those who are seeking concrete guidance because they are overwhelmed by family tensions or the concept and logistics of the divorce process. Clients who experience high-conflict relationships, with their children or partner will benefit from my extensive experience in communication skills. They are looking for a strong, empathetic, professional partner to act as their thought coach through a highly stressful and confusing time.

Life offers us all challenges, and sometimes those challenges may seem unbearable or especially unique. Some of us experience difficulties from the time we are little children- trauma, abuse, neglect. We each have unique abilities and strengths. Sometimes, we have trouble accessing our strengths, but you have gifts in your being that are your gifts and strengths alone. My goal in working with you is to act as a catalyst -to encourage you to find your talents, abilities, and strengths that will serve you in coping with whatever difficulty life has given you.

If you're struggling with anxiety, I can help. We often are caught in patterns that were cemented at an early age, sometimes from our families, sometimes from cultural messages, sometimes we just don't know where these came from! I will work with you to explore those patterns and cultivate new narratives and behaviors that align with how you'd like to live and thrive in your life today.

Trauma is painful and so are the ripple effects. It can tilt you off your axis, dysregulate your nervous system and disconnect you from yourself. When unprocessed, it has a sly way of making unexpected guest appearances internally and in your relationships. Ironically, sometimes the same coping strategies that once protected you from your pain are contributing to your present hurt. My approach is to create a space to get curious about your inner world, to collaboratively identify the stuck points, process the hard stuff, access the good stuff, and build new skills so that your past does not have to be in the driver's seat.

My therapy style is warm, dynamic and open. I believe in holding space for your growth and potential to unfold, and in treating every human I work with with the utmost respect. My approach combines cognitive-behavioral, client centered modalities, psychodynamic and systems theories. Every person is unique, and I tailor my practice to best suit your needs. You've taken the first step by looking into your options for therapy. It takes courage and commitment to get to this point. When you are ready to take the next step, I am here to support and empower you. Your journey is in the process of unfolding and I hope to be able to support.

I believe everyone deserves a warm, safe space to process life's experiences, so that is what I strive to provide! I specialize in supporting young adults, adults, and college students to compassionately navigate their inner world- working through things like anxiety, depression, trauma, life stressors/transitions, self worth, identity, and relationships. I work collaboratively to support my clients in connecting to their emotions, understanding how experiences have shaped patterns of thinking and behaving, healing wounds of the past, finding effective coping strategies, and promoting self-acceptance to create meaningful change.

My most important task as a therapist is to help clients recognize their own resiliency and capacity for growth and change. I specialize in working with adolescents (ages 12+) and adults who are facing major life transitions, struggling in interpersonal relationships, and overcoming trauma. I have nearly a decade of experience as a therapist and I offer individual psychotherapy, EMDR, and art therapy to clients in Colorado and Florida. Whether it's your first time in a therapist's office or you've been therapy for years, you are welcome here.
