Grief counselors and therapists in Frisco, CO

Are you feeling overwhelmed by anxiety, life transitions, or past experiences? Do you want help making sense of your story and reconnecting with yourself? I work with children, teens, and adults navigating growth and healing. With 17+ years in education and 10 as a school counselor, I offer a warm, down-to-earth space to feel heard. I believe each of us has an inner child worthy of care, and I can help you gently reconnect. Whether you’re feeling stuck or seeking clarity, I’m here to walk alongside you. My specialties include trauma, life transitions, and managing anxiety. I’m currently accepting new clients.

I specialize in working with men who are navigating anxiety, depression, grief, and a longing for deeper meaning in their lives. I am particularly passionate about supporting fathers of young children, men experiencing loss, and those seeking to redefine masculinity in a healthier, more authentic way.

I have a Master of Arts in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from the Contemplative Psychotherapy and Buddhist Psychology program at Naropa University, where I trained in mindfulness-based, relational therapy grounded in Eastern wisdom traditions.

I am also trained in Ketamine-Assisted Psychotherapy (KAP) through the Transpersonal Research Institute of Psychotherapeutic Psychedelics and other psychedelic-assisted therapy programs. I consider this work deeply sacred and approaches it with great care, presence, and humility.

As a Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP-BC) with a Master’s degree in Psychology and Counseling, my approach is rooted in compassion, collaboration, and a holistic understanding of mental wellness. I believe that mental health care is most effective when it is personalized and tailored to each individual’s unique experiences, challenges, and goals. I work with individuals, couples, and families aged 16 to 65, providing care that is inclusive, affirming, and tailored to each client’s specific needs.

I have been a licensed clinical social worker since 2019. I went to graduate school at Colorado State University and studied Social Work. I have years of experience in higher level care settings as a clinical leader, as well as a background in adolescent residential treatment and corrections. I am trained in EMDR and CPT, as well as CBT, DBT, ACT, and Motivational Interviewing. I specialize in working with people who have experienced trauma, mood and anxiety disorders, personality disorders, adolescents and young adults, and people going through major life transitions.

Emotional distress stems from learning unhealthy habits and patterns. This has motivated me to focus on healthy integration of our emotional experience, which can lead to healing from depression, anxiety and trauma. To best help you with healing from these patterns, I use research backed methodologies including ACT, CBT, and EMDR.

Hi, do you struggle to relate to yourself and others? I am a trauma therapist specializing in loneliness, anxiety, and depression related to past trauma.

After working for years with folks who feel hopeless about their future happiness, I have come to realize that healing and wellness are usually more within our reach than we think. If you witnessed violence in the past, or feel misunderstood as a child and have a complicated relationship with your culture and family that prevents you from being who you are, we can find ease and wellness together.

It takes courage to challenge our traumas and become the person who relates in healthier ways. I am here to support you on that journey. Together, we will grieve what is lost and rebuild who you are.

Like many, I live in and love the state of Colorado. Any chance I get I'm out exploring the outdoors. It provides balance in my personal and professional life.

As a dual-certified Family and Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner I share my interests with clients I see.

When I was working full-time as a Family Nurse Practitioner I saw an unmet need in clients finding a balance in their physical and mental health. I decided to return to school to strengthen my knowledge in psychiatric mental health care.

For the past five years my focus has included seeing clients with substance dependence, MAT treatment, ADHD, Major Depressive Disorder, Bipolar Disorder and Schizophrenia. I especially enjoy the 1:1 experience via telehealth seeing clients in the comforts of their own home.

I believe healing happens in a space where you feel seen, supported, and understood. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) and Licensed Addiction Counselor (LAC) with Master of Arts in Clinical Mental Health Counseling with over 12 years of experience working with children, youth, and families.
