Therapists in El Paso County, CO

I have always had a genuine interest in the uniqueness and well-being of others. I believe that we can all grow from the situations we have experienced. Whether that experience be divorce, abuse, addiction, or trauma of some sort. Our brains & bodies have a way of healing themselves through processing. Certain experiences can cause us to feel alone, anxious, sad, depressed, unmotivated, angry, violated, exposed, and at times emotionally unstable. Here in therapy I walk the journey with you as we work through emotions, gain insight, and create more beneficial perspectives. I provide a space of safety, understanding, and compassion.

Do you find talks with your partner turn to fights? Does frustration surface when you need to discuss important topics? You are not alone. Many couples struggle with communicating effectively and understanding each other. Every argument is a conversation you need to have. It is not too late to have the fulfilling relationship you have always wanted.

Right now everyone's world has turned upside down. Most people in your life don't know what you've really been dealing with. Some days you can barely get off the couch, much less shower. You are exhausted, but can't sleep. From the outside your life might look great, but you feel you are slowly disappearing, unsure who you used to be. Many women with Chronic Illness or PTSD feel this way most the time. Often we are afraid of being disbelieved by not only friends and family, but by our Health Care Team as well. It can take years before women are correctly diagnosed. In pain, with complicated symptoms it's easy to feel invisible.
