Female Therapists in Edgewater, CO

I identify as a Togolese immigrant, daughter, sister, fur-mom, and wife in an interracial marriage. These identities influence how I show up as a therapist and constantly evolve each day. The challenges I have faced have given me both the insight and desire to work with individuals, couples, and families through their hurdles and to help them find what is and isn’t their story. I believe in the idea of assisting individuals, couples & families of different backgrounds to find their path instead of feeling stuck and tied down to societal expectations or their past maladaptive patterns.

Has life been heavy lately? Are you feeling anxious, down, and overwhelmed? You are not alone, and finding a therapist is an amazing first step! I am passionate about helping others find resilience amidst adversity and living their lives to the fullest. I hope to walk with you as you navigate the difficulties and complexities of being human in an emotionally safe space. No matter who you are or how you identify, you deserve grace, compassion, and healing.

As a therapist, I enjoy working with clients who are seeking out more meaning, purpose, and connection in their lives. My clients are often working on learning to regulate their emotions and connect to their bodies, understand their families and cultures, and trying to increase their self-compassion and their compassion for the world. I support people in coming back to their more authentic self, and I know the importance of taking it slow and starting where we are.

Perhaps you are here in Colorado surrounded by beauty and a vibrant community that is always seeking the next best thing. It can be an intimidating process to find your purpose and make your mark especially when you’re not feeling like yourself. “I know where I want to be in life, but just can’t seem to get there... Will therapy even work for me?... I feel like a piece of the puzzle is missing, now what?... I’m running out of time to change... I don’t know who to trust.” Fear, Doubt, and Shame like to interfere with our pursuit of self-improvement, introducing thoughts like these to keep us isolated and uncertain.

Are you curious about wellness? Would you like to work on actualizing your potential? Are you needing better, more effective ways to cope? I can help! If you are in need of someone grounded and objective to help you make sense of your world and provide you with the necessary skills to overcome, then I'm the therapist for you. If your goal is stability and personal growth I can guide you on that path to self-actualization. My experience ranges from general anxiety, depression and mindfulness training to chronic mental illness, trauma and addiction. There is no issue too big or too small for our time together.

Navigating coupling, uncoupling, transitions, and relationships can be challenging.

She works with partners and individuals experiencing relational distress and exploring attachment orientations - leveraging forces that foster a sense of safety alongside those that sustain long-term fulfillment and desire.

I strive to empower my clients to be their most amazing, vibrant, and truest selves. It is normal to struggle but we don't need to suffer. We're often on the right path when we feel lost. This shows us we are aware and open. We are not hard wired for change but we ARE innately predisposed to search for possibilities that support our values, goals, and dreams. I see my clients as creative, capable and whole. We live in a society that is focused on external “success” and appearance and this can create an internal chaos and disconnection from that which truly feeds the spirit. The good news is that we don’t have to live this way.

Are you alive, but not fully living? Do you depend on things you look forward to but dread others, without a sense of sustained contentment and meaning? Sometimes we feel a lack of core vitality when we are not guided by our values. Some build their whole lives on "should's", (eg. should be a manager, have kids, etc), expectations that reflect cultural priorities, without getting to know themselves enough to center their own unique passions, large and small. I will help you identify & center your core values, so that you can make practical changes to your lifestyle to reflect those values and relax into a life of meaning & joy.
