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 enjoy working with teens, adults, and couples. I specialize in working with clients who are suffering from anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties, overwhelm/burnout, chronic illness and pain, grief and loss, ADHD, and life stage transition/adjustment.
You deserve to feel better. My approach to therapy is often holistic, taking into consideration how you are doing in your mind, body, and spirit- they are all so very connected. Together we can explore your unique situation and experiences with honesty and compassion so that you can find healing, make meaningful changes, and improve your relationships.
