Therapists in Alamosa County, CO

I am a dedicated therapist who treasures faith, empathy, and the strength of families. With a deep-rooted belief in the power of faith as a guiding force, I integrate spiritual principles into my practice to provide holistic support to individuals and families navigating life's challenges. I specialize in substance abuse, trauma, grief and play therapy.

We all have a story to share. These all deserve to be shared and honored. Trauma, human emotions, addictions, and relationships can be very overwhelming to manage day to day. In your therapeutic journey we will aim to reduce your anxious and depressive symptoms, as well as addressing traumas, unwanted behaviors, and any other struggles at your own pace. I am committed to creating a space where you can express yourself openly and without judgment.

Many of my clients come to me with questions surrounding relationships, communication, work/life balance, problems with attachment and past trauma, anxiety and depression. The work we do in treatment is often focused on building self awareness, understanding how past experiences, including family of origin dynamics, impact well being, and building tools and strategies for improved functioning. Each person is different, and I work to tailor the work we do to your specific goals and needs.

I hope to make this an easy process for you by offering a safe and non-judgmental space to be vulnerable in while we attend to your mental health needs. I provide mental health services to address anxiety, depression, trauma, stress, grief, ADHD, OCD, and substance use. We can work to resolve any personal issues you may be having within yourself or with your relationships with family, friends, or coworkers. I also offer life-coaching where we can work to change any outdated narratives that may be holding you back from living the life of your dreams.

Do you ever find yourself feeling anxious for no particular reason? Or maybe you struggle to turn off worry and intrusive thoughts? Is trauma causing ongoing problems including depression, difficulty in relationships and maybe even substance use? I work with adults who struggle with the pain of anxiety, depression, trauma or substance use. I provide skills training to clients who wish to improve their emotional regulation, develop healthier boundaries, and connect with others in meaningful ways while improving self-worth. I believe that you as the client are the expert in your world and I respect everyone’s journey without judgment.

As a therapist, my hope is to provide a safe space where you are able to be vulnerable without the fear of judgment. I come from a person-centered lens with an understanding of the impact adverse life events have on our overall well-being. Being able to gain a sense of internal safety, while gaining the confidence to know you are able to manage uncomfortable feelings in an adaptive manner not only reduces trauma responses but also boosts efficacy around who you are as a person.

My aim is to help you better understand your thoughts, feelings, and behaviors, what they mean, and how they relate to your present-day struggles and challenges. I understand that each client faces unique challenges and needs to work on themselves at their own pace, I approach every client with an open mind, and never makes any assumptions about your life experience. Together, we will work to deepen your awareness, understanding of your desires, patterns of relating, so you may experience a more authentic and fulfilling life.
