Grief counselors and therapists in Denver, CO

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor and a proud first-generation graduate, earning my bachelor’s degree from Texas State University and my master’s degree from The University of Texas at San Antonio. I tailor each session to meet the unique needs of my clients, often incorporating creative modalities such as humor, play, and art-based techniques to foster engagement and self-expression. I am comfortable providing services in both English and Spanish to promote accessibility and inclusivity. My goal is to create a safe, supportive space that encourages healing, growth, and resilience.

As your therapist, I see both your strengths and the challenges that have brought you to counseling. I understand that pain, stress, and difficult seasons can sometimes leave us feeling overwhelmed or lead us into choices we never expected to make. You don’t have to be “sick” to benefit from therapy. Sometimes, we simply need a safe, supportive place to slow down, understand what we’re carrying, and find healthier ways forward.

Most importantly, therapy with me is a judgment-free, compassionate space where you can come exactly as you are. You don’t have to figure everything out alone. We can take the next steps together. Whether you’re working through anxiety, stress, relationships, parenting, or simply wanting to feel happier and more fulfilled, I’m here to meet you where you are. Together, we can reduce stress, strengthen relationships, build practical coping skills, and help you feel more grounded and confident in your everyday life.

Think about how many hats you wear—partner, parent, employee, boss, neighbor, caregiver, student, friend, and so much more. My goal is to help you feel more like yourself while navigating all of the roles and responsibilities life brings.

With specialized training and many years of experience as a pediatric specialist, I have a deep understanding of children and families from infancy through adolescence and the transition into adulthood. I can support you through the everyday challenges of parenting, help you and your partner find common ground, and offer practical, real-life strategies that fit your family.

Certified Clinical Anxiety Treatment Professional (CCATP)

Certified Art Therapy Professional

Dialectical Behavioral Therapy Certified

Certified Child Adolescent Trauma Specialist

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and EMDR-trained therapist who works with adults navigating trauma, PTSD, anxiety, OCD, depression, life transitions, relationship difficulties, and challenges related to identity and self-worth. My approach is trauma-informed, collaborative, and practical, with a focus on helping clients better understand their emotions, recognize patterns that keep them feeling stuck, and develop healthier ways of responding to difficult thoughts and experiences.

As a U.S. Army veteran and former Army behavioral health professional, I have a particular interest in working with veterans, service members, first responders, and individuals who have experienced high-stress environments. I also enjoy working with men around issues that can sometimes be difficult to discuss openly, including emotional expression, relationships, anger, shame, identity, performance pressure, and life purpose.

As a Mandarin-speaking Asian American therapist, I am especially interested in supporting Asian and Asian American clients navigating cultural expectations, family dynamics, intergenerational differences, identity, perfectionism, emotional expression, and the pressure to meet high personal or family standards.

My clinical background includes work in hospital-based behavioral health, intensive outpatient treatment, severe and persistent mental illness, substance use treatment, crisis assessment, and military behavioral health. I integrate EMDR, CBT, DBT-informed skills, mindfulness, and other evidence-based and trauma-informed approaches based on each client's individual needs.

I believe therapy should be a space where you can be honest, curious, and human. My goal is not simply to reduce symptoms, but to help you better understand yourself, build greater emotional flexibility, process difficult experiences, and create meaningful changes that extend beyond the therapy room.

My clients are those who may have experienced difficult times, and don't want those hardships to define them. I work with people that have trauma history, relationship challenges, self esteem concerns and feelings of depression.

Finding the right therapist matters, and I understand that reaching out is often the hardest step. I have been a Licensed Professional Counselor for more than 20 years, working with adolescents, adults, and seniors across a wide range of life challenges. I am EMDR-certified and trained in a broad range of approaches because no two people are the same, and neither are their needs. I stay committed to ongoing training because therapy and people both continue to evolve. Past clients have appreciated my flexible, engaging, and non-judgmental style. My goal is to get to know you and work with you exactly where you are.

Having a hard time focusing? Thinking and thinking about why you are not doing what you want to be doing? Feeling like no one can help you change? The confusion can be overwhelming and cause anxiety and depression symptoms that interfere with relationships and personal development. Change is difficult and together we can explore the parts of your life that may be in conflict or turmoil. It is time to put yourself first and through exploration, you'll build internal strength, resilience, and resources to support a more complete you.

As a psychiatric mental health nurse practitioner (PMHNP), I provide evidence-based medication management to clients seeking care. Since becoming a PMHNP, I have worked in different settings such as community health and women’s health. I have a true passion for working with the LGBTQAI and BIPOC communities. I focus on empowering clients within these communities to help them understand possible treatments for their mental health concerns and provide a therapeutic approach to care.
