I am a seasoned therapist of 30 years, and open to work with most adult and adolescent clients. I also have specialized training in the area of coparenting after divorce or separation. My work is focused on the needs of my clients, and I draw from a variety of approaches, depending on your specific needs. Personally, I take great pride in my work, but also enjoy the outdoors, live music, and I volunteer with a few nonprofits that promote positive social action. I've been a single parent and am proud of my now adult children, but understand the complex difficulties in raising children on your own.

Seeking therapy can feel like a daunting and timely process. It is important to find someone who displays empathy and patience. I am dedicated to demonstrating a non-judgmental environment, where I encourage clients to share their personal story in a safe environment. I encourage healing and empowering clients to seek a life filled with joy and peace. It takes courage to tell your personal story and to learn new ways to cope with current and past life stressors. I encourage clients to explore new passions and ways of thinking and processing emotions to embrace a new sense of identity and to heal from trauma, anxiety and stress. I work with a wide range of life experiences including : Postpartum, women's issues, relationship issues, anxiety, stress, grief and loss, mid-life transitions and depression. I work specifically with adults and older adults over the age of 18. I have worked in mental health and behavioral health with adults and children the past 11 years. I use client centered, mindfulness, solution focused approaches. I encourage self-care, mindfulness meditation and journaling in my sessions.

Hello Colorado adults and couples seeking growth and change through the therapeutic process! I'm a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and Certified Addictions Specialist with decades of experience in the field, all here in Colorado. In 2001, I experienced a profound trauma and loss in my personal life which inspired me to focus on trauma, loss and grief as specialty areas in my practice. My 20 years in child protection as a caseworker, clinician and supervisor further inform my work with people impacted by trauma. My passion is psychotherapy with adults and couples. I support my clients through a trauma-informed lens. I tailor my treatment approach to each client's individual needs. I am warm, supportive, open-minded, non-judgmental. I consider it a privilege to partner with my clients in their healing.

As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW), I am passionate about helping first responders process trauma and loosen the emotional hold of difficult experiences. I understand that the demands of serving others can leave lasting effects, including pain, frustration, stress, and disconnection from the life you want to live. My approach is compassionate, collaborative, and focused on meaningful change. I use Accelerated Resolution Therapy (ART), Solution-Focused Brief Therapy (SFBT), and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to help clients process painful experiences, recognize their strengths, and develop practical ways to move forward. You do not have to remain defined by what you have experienced. My goal is to provide a supportive space where you can work through what is holding you back, reconnect with what matters most, and begin to live fully and thrive again.

My approach is active and coaching-based: you'll practice new skills in session and bring real issues from your week so we can work them live. The goal is change you can actually feel, not just insight.

II’m a trauma integration specialist, somatic therapist, and EMDR-trained psychologist with a deep commitment to neurodivergent-affirming care. My work blends depth psychology, polyvagal theory, and creative strategies to support healing that honors complexity, identity, and lived experience. I help clients untangle survival patterns, reclaim nervous system agency, and build embodied resilience through relational, sensory, and narrative tools. In practice, I integrate somatic techniques to support interoceptive awareness, emotional regulation, and the reclamation of body-based safety. I use polyvagal-informed approaches to help clients understand their autonomic states and develop personalized strategies for co-regulation and connection. EMDR is a core modality in my work, especially for clients navigating complex trauma, dissociation, and chronic overwhelm. My sessions often include visual metaphors, parts work, and sensory-friendly adaptations to meet each client’s unique nervous system. I specialize in working with neurodivergent individuals, trauma survivors, and those navigating layered grief, identity, and systemic stress. My approach is collaborative, creative, and grounded in the belief that healing is not about fixing what’s broken; it’s about reclaiming what’s been buried, distorted, or denied. I aim to offer a space where clients feel seen, held, and empowered to move toward integration on their own terms.

I'm fascinated by human existence. What you say, what you mean, what you've been through, how you've survived it, and how you're still standing. I pay attention to the details, the patterns, the stories you tell yourself, and the things you wish other people understood about you. I know what it feels like to feel unseen, overlooked, stuck, anxious, hopeless. I don't have life figured out, but I’ve spent years learning to sit with uncertainty, have hard conversations, and navigate the messy realities of being human. I won’t promise to heal you or have all the answers, but I will promise that I'm committed to helping you better understand yourself. I'm an out-of-the-box therapist. I bring passion, humor, authenticity, and insight.

Frequently asked questions

When looking for online therapy, you can see anyone that is credentialed in the state. We want you to find the best fit, therefore, Grow Therapy shows available therapists across the entire state. If you’d rather see someone in-person, you can change the filter from virtual and find a therapist near your address.

When booking you’ll be asked to verify with your Member ID. However, if you don’t have any of the insurances available you can select cash. Our therapists will have their cost of appointment on their profile. Individual session costs will vary.

The specialty filter is optional. You don’t need to check any boxes to see a provider. However, fit is very important when selecting an online therapist. If you have knowledge or experience to recognize what specialties you may need.

Finding a provider with a similar life experience can be beneficial because it can be easier to establish rapport and potentially be understood quicker and clearer.

Your first therapy session is for you and your therapist to meet each other and to ask any questions that you have about the counseling process. This is where you can expect your therapist to do the same as they will ask questions to gain insight into your specific situation. In this first session the therapist is doing their part to gather as much information so they can better assess if they are able to meet your therapeutic needs. Depending upon your provider's specialty, you may also discuss the methods the therapist will use. For additional information on therapy methods, please visit the Grow Therapy Help Center.Some people feel nervous before their first appointment, and that is totally normal! Coming prepared with a list of questions for your therapist may help. Remember, you're taking a brave step by seeking therapy, and it is okay to be nervous as you try something new.
