I believe healing, growth, and change occur through gaining insight as well as through emotional processing.  I use an integrative approach tailored to meet clients’ individual needs that is rooted in attachment and emotion-based theories. My goal is to create a therapeutic environment that allows clients to feel seen, understood, validated, and valued for who they are.  I bring warmth, empathy, humor, and my own humanity (my personal quirks) into sessions.  I believe emotions drive behavior, and meet clients at their darkest hours without judgement.  I have personally been impacted by trauma, grief, infertility, addiction, and chronic illness.  Therefore, I am comfortable maintaining presence with clients in the depths of their emotions.  As a therapist, I will sit in the murk with you, acting as an anchor, while we sift through pain, loss, fear, the unknown, etc.  Together we will help you uncover/rediscover your truest self and embolden your already-existing strengths.   

I am a Denver-based therapist, and a Colorado native.  While I have lived in other states throughout the country during various periods in my life, I always find my way back to Colorado.  The mountains feed my soul.  I live with my husband, son, and three rambunctious fur companions.  I love being in nature, and spend a lot of time creating/making things, reading books, dancing, and enjoying time with my beautiful family and friends.
