Therapists in Colorado

Therapy is your opportunity to discover and uncover the best things about yourself, while facing the things that might be getting in the way. I’d like to think of myself as your guide through self-compassion, acceptance, and a better relationship with yourself and your body. I support individuals and their families who feel suffocated by their inner critic, anxiety, overwhelm, poor body image, depression, doubt, and fear. Through the use of IFS, ACT, CBT, DBT, and deep self-compassion work, I support adolescents and young adults in becoming their truest, most authentic selves.

I find that people come to therapy because they are struggling and they want things to change. I often tell my clients that if they could have changed things on their own they would have. There are times when you need help to reach your full potential, that’s where I come in. I help clients work on stopping the negative thinking and beliefs that are attributing to what is keeping them stuck so they can make the transformations they want in their lives.

UPDATED 8/21/24: Availability for 5 new clients (only virtual sessions). I accept several insurances in Colorado but do not actively participate with any insurances in Virginia. I enjoy working with adults (18+ only) and specialize in working with sex therapy, men's issues, couples/open relationships/polyamory, ADHD, depression, and anxiety. To be clear, I work with female clients too. I also have a passion for working with the LGBTQ+ community. I believe that therapy has the power to bring about change in people's lives, as people are ready and willing to look at their thoughts, feelings, and behaviors.

I am inspired by the healing power of relationships. I specialize in helping women feel more alive and empowered, as well as helping couples reconnect and thrive. Therapy works when you and I build trusting relationship that is a catalyst for change in other relationships. My clients describe me as calm and empathetic, with a sense of humor. When you meet with me, you and I will create a safe environment where you can explore your full self and heal without judgement. With individuals I use EMDR, parts work, and other modalities to help you rebuild. With couples I use EFT, Gottman, and PACT therapies to help you reconnect.
