My Positive, Storied Approach to Personal and Professional Growth

Everyone’s life is a grand story, filled with twists and turns, good things and bad things, all grounded in personal life themes. I consider it an enormous honor to be invited into someone’s story and believe that everyone has the power to take control of their stories, write the next chapter, and then make it happen.

Be the hero of your own story! Together we can talk about everything from what you want to include as you move forward, what you want to leave behind, and even the cast of characters in your life! Through thoughtful and genuine exploration, we both gain a better understanding of you and what you bring to the world including your strengths and talents, meaning and purpose. Through the process, my goal is to empower you to create a meaningful story you can be excited to step into.

I am an NCDA Certified Career Counselor and a Licensed Professional Counselor in Colorado. I have PhD in Counselor Education and a master's degree in mental health counseling. I currently serve on the boards of both the National Career Development Association (NCDA) and the American Counseling Association (ACA). I bring my strengths, training, and experience to our career and counseling work together.

Therapist

For over 10 years, I've had the opportunity to support people through some of life's hardest moments. My journey has taken me from working with youth in residential treatment to helping families involved in foster care, adoption, and divorce, as well as individuals involved in the justice system. I also spent time working at an eating disorder and substance use treatment center before becoming a high school counselor, where I currently work. Throughout every role, one thing has stayed the same; I genuinely love helping people and have always been passionate about mental health.

Therapist

Virtual & in-person • 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!

Find the right therapist for you

Headway makes it easy to find support for your mental health — from finding the right provider, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Mental Health Therapist in Salida, CO

Searching for therapists in Salida starts with finding someone whose training matches what you want support with. You may be looking for care related to anxiety, depression, grief, trauma, relationship challenges, or a life transition. As you compare therapists, look for specialties, therapy styles, and experience that match your needs. A therapist’s bio can help you understand their approach, what sessions may feel like, and whether they have experience with the concerns you want to address.

In a smaller city like Salida, the number of local in-person therapists may be limited. Virtual therapy can expand your options while still connecting you with a therapist licensed in Colorado. Consider what fits your schedule, whether you prefer in-person or virtual sessions, and how soon a therapist is accepting new clients. Reading profiles before you book can also help you compare communication style, session structure, and whether a free phone consultation is available.

Therapy in Salida can be a significant expense without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and understand what you may pay before care begins. Headway helps you search for therapists who accept a wide range of insurance plans, review estimated out-of-pocket costs before booking, and schedule directly when you’re ready.

1 Cost may vary based on your location, age, and insurance coverage.
