I have wanted to be a therapist since I was twelve years old after seeing a guru use his expertise to connect with a troubled child who had only known how to push others away. Over twenty five years later, I'm privileged enough to have found my own niche, working with individual adults address the impacts of trauma, anxiety, and depression. They have proven that the capacity to love and embrace life can be rediscovered, even for those who have lived through the unbearable.

Therapist

Virtual & in-person • 14 mi away • Denver, CO


Are you a parent, pregnant, or thinking about starting a family? Or, are you in your late teens / early 20s and trying to figure out who you are as you head into adulthood? I'm passionate about the process of becoming - whether that's matrescence (the transition to motherhood & parenthood), or adolescence (the transition to adulthood). I have over 10 years of experience working with young people as an international/wilderness guide and clinician. My own experiences with pregnancy, postpartum and parenthood led me to seek out specialized training in supporting folks in this transition. Current openings for in-person therapy on Thursdays at my office located in South Denver near DU. Schedule a free consult call with me to see if it's a good fit!
