Then you spend the rest of the appointment trying to convince them that you are actually ill. It's like you're put in a position where you have to justify having made the appointment in the first place. I believe therapy should be the exact opposite of this. Therapy should make people feel validated, feel heard. You deserve a place to feel understood, and I would be honored to provide this to you.

Do you feel like you're drowning and can't find your way back up? Do you find yourself worried all the time, unable to sleep, and hopeless? I've been there too... Everything feels like it's changing so fast and you don't have a place to process it. You find yourself needing that glass of wine or two (or the bottle) at night just to help you feel "okay" long enough to get to sleep and start all over the next day. You know you need to talk to someone, and you are overwhelmed with getting started. It feels like with the right tools and a little bit of help, you could feel so much better.

I have been a therapist for many years. I feel that being a part of someone's life journey as they ask questions and work to make sense of the puzzle of their life is a sacred experience. I never make the mistake of thinking that I have all the answers, especially as it pertains to another's life. But I know from my own life's journey how important it can be to have someone that you trust "walk" with you when life is difficult and confusing. In terms of my education, I completed my Bachelor's Degree in Social Work at Colorado State University and my Master's Degree in Social Work at the University of Kansas.

Have you ever thought of your Entire Life as being a web of relationships? I do. I see your life as having 4 Key Areas of Relationship: 1) With your SELF, 2) With OTHERS, 3) With local Community and the World, 4) And possibly, With Substances, or other Vices. When any 1 or more of these is stressful or out of balance, symptoms occur or worsen. Uncomfortable feelings of transition/change, anxiety, depression, grief, loss, internal or external conflict, feeling hopeless or stuck or angry, or alone, without support or solutions. The list goes on. It is my Mission to help you to feel rapid relief and to facilitate healing/change.

I work from a place of respect and compassion, in a down-to-earth and holistic way, with each person I see to build trust and a sense of partnership. I can help you navigate life transitions, stress, anxiety and depression, and relationships. My specialty is in working with individuals who have experienced trauma that has caused ongoing distress. This could be recent or long in the past. With support, you can heal and grow no matter what you have been through. I provide space to help you learn about and explore the world that lives within you. I support you in building skills that build your insight and access your internal wisdom.

My passion lies within helping individuals heal from the deep, and often, overwhelming effects of trauma. I understand that trauma can leave lasting scars, impacting every aspect of your life.

I have been working in the mental health field for over 40 years. I started working in mental health facilities in my early 20's while I was in college. I have worked with adults and adolescents in all kinds of modalities, yet I seemed to focus more toward young people and their families with substance abuse problems and anxiety. Some of that stems from having to deal with my own addictions in my late teens and finally getting clean and sober at age 20. Thus, I understand what it is like to be overwhelmed by addiction and the need to engage in a recovery process.

It's hard being a human, and sometimes we experience a great deal of suffering. The pleasant news is the body/mind and human spirit have the innate capacity to heal. Yes, even when it feels like you're totally stuck, when your nervous system is overwhelmed, and things seem to be falling apart around you. Perhaps it's been years or decades feeling like you're fighting against the current of life. Maybe its more recent events and circumstances have activated an energetic buzz of fear/anxiety/grief/longing... Whatever the case may be, you're here NOW.

If you have found yourself at a crossroads in your life or relationship, then I am here to help. I am an individual, couple and family therapist specializing in trauma healing, self-esteem, and transitional difficulties treated both individually as well as in the context of a couple or family.

It takes a lot of courage to seek help. I welcome you to a safe space for exploring exactly what you need. I specialize in women's therapy, reclaiming your life after trauma, sex therapy and couples counseling. I am comfortable talking about all things, especially when it comes to sex and intimacy! Do you feel stuck, unhappy or are you in crisis? Do you wonder if sexual pleasure can really happen for you? Perhaps you feel alone with your thoughts or worries or controlled by the negative “voices” in your head? Are you and your partner fighting more or growing distant? I can help you identify your sticking points and find relief.

Most of us have negative beliefs about ourselves and that are not serving us, but we continue to feed into these messages. Something as simple as saying that we are not good enough can have big consequences in our lives. Now think about how often we might say that... it is usually often more than we want to admit. We need to learn to overcome our own negative self-talk by fostering, strong healthy connections with those who we feel safe with. We all want to feel good in life, and this looks different for each person.

I am deeply committed to recognizing and honoring the significance of your journey. My role is to offer you unwavering support as you move forward. Together, we will explore the complexities of your emotions, thoughts, and experiences with mutual understanding and collaboration.
