I help clients see that change and growth are an inside job. When people feel unhappy they often look to other people, career, money and substances to make them feel better. This doesn't work long-term and only creates dependencies that harm them. For many, struggles are rooted in childhood experiences with less than ideal parenting and attachment patterns. Helping my clients to resolve and move past family of origin wounds, identify and eliminate destructive beliefs from their childhood and the behavior created from these beliefs, allows clients the ability to embrace their own lives and opens the door into joy & personal freedom.
I've been helping individuals and couples for 30 years to improve relationships, deal with challenges, heal from trauma and abuse, eliminate self-destructive behaviors, overcome codependency and addiction, and to feel more secure. My practice was recognized as one of the three best marriage practices in Denver 2019-2023 (ThreeBestRated.com).
My approach and style are interactive, down-to-earth and practical. I believe therapy is a co-creative process, and I take great care to ensure that my clients develop practical tools and strategies that help them not only to feel better, but also to thrive both personally and in relationships. This type of work is a specialty and passion of mine.
