I spent seven years as a collegiate head coach in cross country and track and field, rejoined my dream of counseling in 2020, and started our practice in 2022. My caseload is made up of 70% youth between 4 and 18, 30% adults, and about 75% men and boys, overall. I utilize cognitive behavioral therapy, techniques from play therapy for the youngest clients, and see couples with an assertive REBT action-oriented style. I am mostly in-person here in Colorado Springs, and I work weekends! Let's get better!

I believe that you already have the answer to your problems and concerns, but just might need some help to discover that answer. You have the skills to change and overcome already in you. Like finding a diamond buried in a big rock, your abilities may be several layers down, but they exist! I am here to help you remove those layers, build skills, and reach the "gem", which is your life changed in the way you want it changed. I am here to help if you have a clear, defined problem, or if life just feels "off". I listen to your perspectives and ways of being to determine how to approach problem solving.

It is an honor for me to be a p art of your journey to finding wholeness.
Some days it just feels extra hard to human; to know and understand what you are feeling, and how to be in relationship with your family and friends. It can feel overwhelming and even lonely trying to navigate life and the world around us. We so deeply want to be seen, to be understood, to be heard. You are looking for answers, and yet, the process to the answers can feel messy and murky.

I have learned the importance of blending evidence-based care with a unique individualized approach tailored to the needs and desires of the individual; therefore, I practice a multi-modal approach that mixes neuroscience and psychology.

Four hours of sleep, 20 minutes late to work, and five espresso shots later…you’re day has started. And it’s come with a ton of anxiety and negative thoughts. The “fun” p art? It doesn’t stop there - it bleeds into your day and evening - more tense moments with the kids, drinks to cope, and struggling to just BE. And sure, if this kind of day only happened here and there, that would be doable. But when it feels like this has been your usual for way too long…it sucks. And all you want…is some goddamn relief. Just to rest, to feel settled and at ease in your own body…your own life. And you can absolutely have this.
