My journey towards therapy started in the forests on the Pacific Crest Trail and in the San Juan Mountains as a Wilderness Therapy Guide. I was entranced by people's stories that landed them on the trail, as well as by their takes on life. I decided to get my Master's in Counseling at Adam's State University so that I could professionally hear people's stories. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor in the state of Colorado. I have experience working with families and individuals ages 12+. I am passionate about helping people manage chronic stress that seems inevitable in the current world we live in.

I have experience with adults and teenagers in systems of care including nonprofits, hospitals, and outpatient facilities. I specialize in trauma and addictions but enjoy working with variety in all its forms. I am passionate about adventure and the outdoors and want to help my clients improve their relationship to the land, connection to self, and deepening the quality of our interactions with others.

Therapy should be accessible and affordable, you deserve to life a live free of self judgment and doubt. I offer a warm, affirming, and nonjudgmental space where you can explore all parts of yourself. My approach is collaborative, helping you to find skills and ways of thinking that actually make a difference. My role is to walk alongside you as you slow things down, make sense of what’s happening inside, and reconnect with your own clarity and voice.

I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with seven years of experience supporting adults through a variety of mental health challenges and life experiences.

My approach is person-centered and tailored to your individual needs, goals, and experiences. Whether you are navigating the effects of trauma, struggling with your mental health, experiencing a difficult life transition, or simply feeling stuck, you don’t have to go through it alone. Together, we can explore what you’re experiencing, build on your strengths, develop practical coping skills, and work toward meaningful change.

Taking the first step toward therapy can feel challenging, but reaching out is a sign of strength. I’m here to meet you where you are and support you on your journey toward healing, growth, and a greater sense of well-being.

I love helping people develop skills to improve their lives, communication and relationships. It is important to know that one theory does not meet everyone’s needs, therefore I use many different approaches to helping my clients to build their own best version of themselves.

There are seasons in life when you're trying to understand who you are while also carrying the expectations of everyone around you. You may be navigating a new chapter in motherhood, questioning your relationships, exploring your identity, or feeling weighed down by anxiety that's become difficult to manage on your own. Whatever brings you here, you deserve a space where you can show up exactly as you are and feel genuinely supported. I provide virtual therapy for adolescents, adults, and older adults throughout Nebraska, helping people navigate anxiety, LGBTQIA+ concerns, maternal mental health, and relationship issues while also supporting women's issues, family challenges, trauma, stress, infertility, identity exploration, panic disorders, and cultural experiences that often become part of life's biggest transitions. My goal is to help you feel understood, reconnect with your strengths, and move toward a life that feels more authentic and fulfilling.

Hello! I am so happy to be partnering with Headway. My background in Clinical Social Work is grounded in trauma-informed care, with a Master’s degree emphasizing the impact of trauma on emotional, cognitive, and relational functioning. As an LCSW, I bring the core values of social work into my practice, including the dignity and worth of each person, the importance of human connection, cultural humility, and social justice. I work from a client-centered and integrative clinical framework.

I specialize in clients facing challenges with trauma, PTSD, grief and loss (especially from suicide death), depression, anxiety, and unexpected life events.

I am grounded in honesty, advocacy, and deep respect for their autonomy. I show up guided by my values, including a strong commitment to social justice and empowerment. I believe everything is connected, and I bring that belief into the room with intention and care. I am someone who will help you understand your choices, your responsibility, and your own agency. I’m especially drawn to working with adolescents and young adults as they explore who they are and navigate the overwhelming stress and pressure that can come with growing up. My clinical interests include anxiety, depression, eating disorders, body image, and ADHD.

I’m a licensed therapist with master’s degrees in both Philosophy and Clinical Counseling from the University of Colorado Denver. My work is guided by values of openness, empathy, and curiosity, and I see therapy as a collaborative space for growth and self-discovery. I strive to create an environment where clients feel genuinely seen, supported, and empowered to make meaningful changes. I work with adults and adolescents navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, substance abuse, thought disorders, and life transitions, helping them build resilience and a deeper sense of fulfillment.

I'm glad you're here. Sometimes we reach a point when we know something needs to change, even if we're not quite sure where to begin. You may be struggling within yourself, facing difficulties in a relationship, adjusting to a new season of life, or finding that experiences from the past are still affecting you today.

I work with late teens, adults, and couples navigating anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, and life transitions. For clients who want their faith to be part of therapy, I welcome the opportunity to thoughtfully integrate Christian principles in a way that honors your beliefs, values, and goals.
