I specialize in the following areas: cultivating self-compassion, self- acceptance, and inner awareness.
The challenges of life can seem overwhelming. Anxiety, depression, fear and insecurity can negatively color your perception of yourself and your life, and cause mental, emotional, somatic, and social distress. It is possible, however, to change this familiar pattern by working with your mind, emotions, and behaviors in a way that fosters growth. If you are dedicated to your psychological growth, and you practice using methods such as mindful awareness and contemplative inquiry, you can access your best self, and steer your life in a positive direction.

Finding the right therapist shouldn’t be difficult or intimidating. I have always felt finding a therapist is like dating, but the therapist doesn’t have to share. I wish for the client to feel good or less scared. I try to make therapy easier, and our first session to be relaxed. There are no expectations from me. I want you to feel empowered. Calling me and meeting is the first step to increasing your confidence. A little about my therapeutic approach, I show I care but say what most clients are too scared to say themselves. I have had countless examples where at the right time and within context, I say the biggest fear.

I believe therapy can look many different ways, and can be very effective in varying forms. Sometimes we benefit greatly from brief therapeutic episodes that provide for education, skill building, and perspective shifts. Other times, we may benefit from ongoing relational work with a counselor. And sometimes, we find growth in intermittent visits with clinician. Therapy should ultimately be tailored to the client's needs, abilities, and goals. I approach client care with warmth, curiosity, empathy, and a bit of humor. I believe the interconnection between our biology, psychology, socio-environmental and for many, spiritual factors.

Finding a way to live our lives aligned with our goals and values is one of the most meaningful steps we can take to decrease suffering and increase a sense of purpose in our life. Unfortunately, over our lifetime, we may have learned ways to engage with the world which get in the way of our own successes. We may have become stuck in patterned ways of thinking and acting, which become second nature and can be difficult to change without targeted work. This can lead to feeling discouraged or even hopeless.

“What is wrong with me?” you think to yourself. You feel disconnected from others. You don’t feel as though anyone truly understands you or gets you. You keep talking to your family, friends, or partner about the same issue but there is no resolution. They keep asking, “What do you actually want?” but your mind goes blank. Or you know what you want, but you vocalizing your wants would hurt important people in your life. Or you don’t think what you want is important as you’ve navigated your entire life with putting your wants and needs last.

One of my life's goals was to live in the mountains. I'm an Iowa gal who spent many summers touring the West. So, when given the chance, I moved to Southwest Colorado. I loved mountain life. My dogs and I spent many days hiking with some four-wheeling and fishing thrown in. I worked at a Durango women's shelter and then became a clinical supervisor at Peaceful Spirit Southern Ute Treatment Center in Ignacio. I worked there for ten years and became better acquainted with some of the Native spiritual practices. Since graduating from college, I have made it my life's mission to help others improve their lives.

Acceptance and Commitment (ACT) Therapists
How does acceptance and commitment therapy work?
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy encourages a person to listen to their self-talk. A person’s inner dialog can be indicative of how they treat themselves. ACT also encourages self-compassion; this can lead to a better understanding of negative thought patterns and emotional states. This understanding can then lead the individual to needed behavior change.
What are the goals of acceptance and commitment therapy?
The goal of acceptance and commitment is to expand a person’s psychological flexibility, a trait that encourages an individual to live in the present moment and to accept all their thoughts, feelings, and emotions, even ones that are difficult such as sadness and anxiety. In ACT, this acceptance is congruent with the individual’s values and beliefs.
Does acceptance and commitment therapy work for depression?
Acceptance and commitment therapy is effective for depression because it allows the individual to view their discomfort and suffering differently. Depressive feelings about relationship heartaches, for example, are a part of life. A despondent person learns to let go of their struggles and instead view their painful thoughts and feelings with compassion. This will lead the individual toward positive change.
How long are people typically in acceptance and commitment therapy?
A typical acceptance and commitment therapy session is 50 minutes long with one session per week. Treatment for common problems such as anxiety, depression, or relationship difficulties can last between eight weeks to four months. However, more severe cases may require more than one session a week and/or a longer time frame for treatment.
