I'm an LPC in Colorado and have been practicing for 9 years. I am passionate about creating a safe space for people where they are met with compassion and understanding as they navigate current stressors and build on things that are already working for them. If you are a teen or adult who has experienced trauma, grief, life transitions, self-esteem concerns, depression or anxiety, I offer a safe supportive space. I provide an environment for clients to express and understand themselves using a client-centered approach, along with expressive arts, CBT and solution-focused therapy to help clients reach their goals. My approach is non-judgemental, creative, and empowering. I'm passionate about providing therapeutic support for members of the LBGTQIA+ community. Together we can help you set boundaries, highlight on your strengths and build your supports.

What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?

In the first session I really get to know you and your current struggles as well as some background information that influences who you are today. I try to make it as open ended as possible but do have a few specific questions I ask to get to understand your current stressors, supports, people in your life, and history.

Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.

I have a very compassionate understanding approach. The most important thing for me is that clients feel heard and understood and that they have a safe space to share anything that comes up so they can better understand themselves and find new ways of relating to themselves.

Describe the client(s) you are best positioned to serve.

I work with a lot of clients who identify as LGBTQ+ and offer a safe supportive space. I also have a lot of experience working with clients who have experienced religious trauma, grief, other types of trauma and self-esteem concerns.

My treatment methods

Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)

I help client understand how our thoughts, feelings, and behaviors are interconnected and ways we can improve overall being by identifying unhelpful patterns in these ways of being.

Trauma Informed Care

I have experience working with trauma and from my understanding, past trauma can shape current thinking and behaviors. I help clients understand these connections and develop new ways of relating to themselves.

Strength-Based

I highlight on things that are already working in your life that we can build on whether that's supportive people, hobbies, or things that are already a support and strength we can build on them.
