Obsessive-compulsive disorder therapists & psychiatrists in Grand Junction, CO

Many of the people I work with are high-functioning by every external measure — capable, driven, the one others lean on — while privately carrying anxiety, burnout, shame, or a quiet sense of disconnection from themselves or the people they love. If that's you, you don't need to be told to slow down. You need someone who can help you understand the patterns underneath it and actually change them.

I'm a licensed psychologist with a Ph.D., working with adults and couples. My style is warm and direct: I'll listen closely, and I'll also tell you what I'm seeing. The aim is lasting change — understanding what's been driving the pattern so you can do something different, rather than just managing symptoms.

Do you find yourself constantly thinking, analyzing, or trying to make sense of everything? Maybe you replay conversations, anticipate every possible outcome, or search for the "right" answer before making a decision. You may understand yourself well on an intellectual level, yet still feel anxious, overwhelmed, stuck, or disconnected. I provide therapy for teens, young adults, adults, and educators—including teachers, school counselors, and other school staff—who are navigating anxiety, stress, burnout, relationship challenges, difficult experiences, or simply feeling overwhelmed by the demands of daily life.

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Colorado, Nevada, and Massachusetts, and have been practicing therapy professionally for over 15 years. Throughout my career, I have been privileged to support many different communities and I bring the skills and knowledge I've learned along the way into the work I do with my clients.

I focus on Sex Therapy, Trauma, Anxiety, Relationship Issues, Personal Growth and Development, Men's Issues, and Existential Issues. I utilize several approaches, including: Solution-Focused Brief Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Narrative Therapy, Family Systems Therapy, and Somatic Therapy.

On the outside, you may look high-functioning —managing responsibilities, caring for others, showing up for work and relationships — while internally feeling overwhelmed, anxious, disconnected, or stuck in patterns that leave you drained—you don’t have to navigate it alone!

I believe healing is not about becoming someone completely different — it’s about reconnecting with the version of yourself that has been buried underneath stress, survival, anxiety, self-doubt, or past experiences.

Starting therapy can feel vulnerable, but you don’t have to navigate it alone. I would be honored to support you in the process.
