Book a therapist or psychiatrist in Durango, CO covered by Cigna

Hola y Bienvenidos. I work with high-achieving adults, helping professionals, therapists, first-generation individuals, and members of the Latino community who often find themselves carrying the weight of work, family, cultural expectations, and caring for others. Many appear successful on the outside while privately struggling with anxiety, burnout, people-pleasing, self-doubt, or feeling disconnected from themselves.

I understand that reaching out for help can feel daunting, but taking that first step is a powerful part of the healing process. If you’re ready to explore how therapy can support you in creating lasting change, I’d love to connect. Together, we can work toward building resilience, enhancing your well-being, and achieving the goals that matter most to you. Let’s take that first step together—I'm here to support you every step of the way.

I offer EMDR and talk therapy for a variety of issues. I use solution-focused, strength-based, attachment focused and trauma-informed approaches to help my clients define a desirable change and move towards it while addressing the underlying unresolved issues. I tailor the therapeutic process to my clients' specific needs.

I work with creative, self-aware adults navigating anxiety & overthinking, grief, ADHD & other neurodivergence, relationship struggles, and major life transitions and reinvention — people in the middle of real change.

Therapy with me is grounded, direct, and collaborative. We slow down enough to understand what’s happening beneath the surface — and then we figure out how to move you forward.

I have a master's degree in clinical mental health counseling and have worked in inpatient rehab, community mental health, and private practice. And I've had several other careers before this: massage therapist, editor and writer, writing instructor, park ranger, all of which inform how I show up as a therapist.

I'm a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) and Licensed Addiction Counselor (LAC) providing telehealth therapy to adults throughout Colorado. I believe healing begins when we become curious about the stories we've been carrying and the experiences that shaped them. My role is to provide a compassionate, collaborative space where you can safely explore those patterns, reconnect with your authentic self, and create lasting change.

I specialize in working with adults experiencing PTSD and complex trauma, developmental and attachment trauma, dissociation, anxiety, depression, substance use and harm reduction, identity exploration, life transitions, grief, chronic health conditions, and LGBTQIA+ concerns. I also support clients interested in integrating insights from plant medicine experiences into their healing.

My practice is trauma-informed, culturally humble, and affirming of people from all identities and backgrounds. I know that beginning therapy takes courage, and I strive to create a space where you feel genuinely seen, respected, and supported.

I work from a client centered and trauma informed approach addressing all aspects of a client's whole self, to help the client find healing, hope and freedom to navigate life's challenges and learn to thrive. Although I work with clients of all ages, I specialize in working with adolescents and young adults. I am committed to instilling hope in the lives of clients and their families. I love what I do and feel honored to have the opportunity to walk along side of you during this season of life.

If you’re carrying trauma, anxiety, or depression, you’ve found a warm and steady place to start. I’m a seasoned Licensed Clinical Social Worker, and mindfulness has been a deeply important part of my own life and my work for nearly 30 years. Over the years, I’ve completed intensive meditation training in India, Nepal, Sri Lanka, and the United States, experiences that have profoundly shaped how I understand healing, presence, and the connection between mind and body. I’d be honored to bring all of that to you.

I specialize in helping clients navigate grief, relational anxiety, trauma, perfectionism, self-doubt, low self-esteem, and the pressures that hold them back from living fully. My approach to therapy is warm, collaborative, and deeply personal. With experience in working with PTSD, social anxiety, identity struggles, and the impact of divorce, I’m especially drawn to those who are ready to face challenges head-on to thrive, not just survive. I also offer Christian counseling for those wishing to integrate their faith, but all are welcome!

With a background in Psychology (Washburn University) and a Master’s in Social Work (University of Denver), I bring both education and empathy to my practice. I specialize in supporting adults and teens navigating anxiety, trauma, and the challenges of living as neurodivergent individuals in a world that doesn’t always fit. My approach is collaborative, compassionate, and grounded in evidence-based practices that honor each client’s unique story. I also hold a certificate in Human–Animal–Environment Interactions, which deepens my understanding of connection, healing, and growth.

I work with young women, millennials, teen girls, and young couples. I can support you to help build boundaries, work on relationships, learn coping skills to deal with anxiety & stress, talk through life changes & challenges, big decisions, small decisions, or anything else. I focus on family dynamics, generational patterns, and helping you choose the best steps to take moving forward.
