On the outside, you may look high-functioning —managing responsibilities, caring for others, showing up for work and relationships — while internally feeling overwhelmed, anxious, disconnected, or stuck in patterns that leave you drained—you don’t have to navigate it alone!

I believe healing is not about becoming someone completely different — it’s about reconnecting with the version of yourself that has been buried underneath stress, survival, anxiety, self-doubt, or past experiences.

Starting therapy can feel vulnerable, but you don’t have to navigate it alone. I would be honored to support you in the process.

🌄 A Tale of Two States: From Colorado to Texas

I'm a proud product of two distinct states: I spent my formative years growing up in Colorado before a major shift landed me in Pflugerville, Texas, as a high school junior.

That move—especially navigating a new culture and community during those challenging teenage years—was a profound adjustment period. It was this early, personal experience with transition and change that fundamentally shaped my path and inspired me to choose counseling as my career. Now, I carry the influence of both states with me.

Frequently asked questions

Happy patient looking away

Find the right counselor for your family

Headway makes it easier to find family-focused support — from finding the right provider, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Family Therapist in Aurora

Finding family therapists in Aurora starts with understanding what your family wants help with and what kind of support fits best. Family therapy can help with parenting conflict, adolescent struggles, blended family dynamics, communication patterns, and changes across generations. Family therapists are trained to work with the relational system, not just one person. As you compare Aurora therapists, look for bios that mention family counseling, parenting support, family systems, or experience working with children, teens, and caregivers.

Aurora has a range of therapists across the city, and virtual appointments can expand your options when travel, school schedules, or work hours make in-person sessions harder to coordinate. Family therapy may include the full family, smaller groups within the family, or individual members, depending on the goals of care. Before booking, review each therapist’s profile for appointment availability, session structure, therapy approach, and whether they offer a free phone consultation. This can help you understand how they work with families before the first session.

Therapy in Aurora can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs. Headway helps you search for family therapists who are accepting new patients, review detailed bios, verify your insurance, and see your estimated out-of-pocket cost before booking. You can compare therapists in Aurora, choose virtual or in-person care, and book directly when you’re ready.

If anyone in your family is experiencing or worried about abuse, threats, or coercion, joint family or couples therapy usually isn't the right starting point — individual support is safer. The Childhelp National Child Abuse Hotline (1-800-422-4453) and National Domestic Violence Hotline (1-800-799-7233, or text START to 88788\) can help you think through next steps.
