Welcome to Alpenglow Therapy. You are most likely here because you’re hurting in some way and want to feel better. You are not alone. I am so glad you’re taking this step to take care of yourself. Healing and growth are possible for you! My goal as a therapist is to create a safe and trusting space where you feel comfortable to be yourself. It is a space for you to process, to grow, to learn, to heal, and to succeed. As your therapist, I can accompany you on this journey without judgement or pressure, support you in your time of need, teach you new skills, and gently challenge you to help you reach your goals.

I work from the fundamental belief that all individuals have the capacity to effectively deal with any challenge in their lives given the right tools and support. I am passionate about strengthening people and relationships through the exploration of family and interpersonal dynamics. I help individuals, couples and families improve and understand their relationships by providing a safe and non-judgmental setting.

I believe we all are born with the capacity to live full and rewarding lives. In life's many challenges we sometimes can get to a place where we feel overwhelmed or "stuck". Counseling can help get you back on track with facing those challenges and creating the life you want. I can provide a unique safe space to explore your difficult feelings and experiences. That space has the power to be tremendously healing--and within it, I can help you discover new ways of relating to your thoughts, your feelings and the world around you.

Thank you for visiting my page. I mostly work with folx with marginalized identities through relational/developmental trauma, anxiety, depression, overwhelming emotions, numbness/disconnection, history of abuse, and interpersonal/attachment issues.

Here is a space to fully show up, explore your multitude, and heal.

I am currently not accepting new clients - You have big dreams and big goals. You hold yourself to a high standard and are harder on yourself than anyone else. Others may not understand the weight of your role or the fears and challenges that come with it. Perhaps you have performed while carrying the heavy burdens of past traumas, pain, and loss. Do you feel unable to show up and live the way you want to at work or home? Does finding a work-life balance feel impossible? Do you look at others and wonder how they are doing it? I believe you deserve to heal from trauma and engage with what is truly important to you!

Everyone has the potential to feel secure and connected. We will work collaboratively to identify sources of stress, embrace difficult feelings, question limiting thought and behavior patterns, and develop both internal and external resources for finding more joy and fulfillment in life. I have a passion for working with people experiencing life transitions, including but not limited to life stages, pregnancy and postpartum, career, relationships, and illness.
