As a therapist and former career counselor at the University of Colorado Boulder and the University of Denver, I’ve spent years helping students and young professionals find their footing and create lives that feel personally meaningful. I help clients manage anxiety, depression, ADHD, and life transitions through strength-based and collaborative therapy.
I have been a Licensed Professional Counselor in Colorado since 2004.I earned my undergraduate degree in Psychology from the Colorado College and my masters degree in Counseling Psychology from the University of Denver.
I have been married for 25 years and am the mother of 3 boys, including a recent college graduate, a current college student, and a high schooler. My passion is helping older teens and young adults navigate mental health and career identity challenges.
Are you feeling stuck in patterns that no longer serve you? Maybe anxiety or OCD is keeping you from living your life in the way that you would most enjoy. Or perhaps you are challenged by losses or life transitions which are difficult to face alone. Having a safe place to express your thoughts and feelings can make a difference.
I became a therapist after seeing the benefits of counseling and art therapy on both personal and professional levels. I’m a licensed professional counselor since 2011 and a board certified art therapist since 2022. I hold a Master’s degree in Transpersonal Counseling Psychology with a concentration in Art Therapy. In addition to my degree, also have significant training in a variety of evidence based treatments, including ERP, CPT, Motivational Interviewing, CAMS and ACT.
My experiences with hospice patients and caregivers, seniors, people in addiction recovery, people in crisis, people struggling with anxiety, trauma, life transitions, cultural and social justice concerns, have inspired me to offer therapy in private practice. In my spare time, I love to cook, sing, hike, and make art.
Our life experiences are layered and complex. My goal is to provide a safe, authentic, and supportive space for you to explore these experiences, create deeper emotional connections, and develop practical skills that facilitate clarity and change. With the use of integrated and insight-building strategies, we will weave together self-awareness and self-acceptance with effective and functional skills, enabling you to create real, lasting changes and lead a more balanced and fulfilled life.
My approach to therapy is collaborative, integrative, and tailored to the needs of each client. My specialties include anxiety, depression, life transitions, stress management, relationship concerns, career issues, and work/life balance.

My goal is to provide you with a safe, emotional space where you will feel comfortable, relaxed and know that you are being heard. I want you to be able to express yourself freely without any fear of judgement. Healing takes place when you are able to be open, honest and vulnerable. Throughout my practice, it has been an honor to help facilitate extraordinary transformation in the lives of my clients. Believe me when I say that, “Anything is possible,” as I have witnessed my clients overcome trauma, grief, depression, anxiety and hardcore drug addiction.
Often, our feelings of shame, hurt and fear rob us of the opportunity to experience true joy and fulfillment in our lives. Do you find yourself running from these feelings or always fighting against them? Instead, I can help you embrace them and work through them. It is through this process of transformation where you learn to find acceptance, meaning
and purpose in your life. This leads to living with self-authenticity, and this is when you experience true joy and fulfillment. I look forward to being your catalyst for change. Together, we will take this journey and progress at your own pace. I encourage you to take the first step and make an appointment. Your life is worth it!

I have a background in schools and special education, a Bachelors degree in Psychology and Master of Social Work with a concentration in Mental Health.
I work from a client centered and trauma informed approach addressing all aspects of a client's whole self, to help the client find healing, hope and freedom to navigate life's challenges and learn to thrive. Although I work with clients of all ages, I specialize in working with adolescents and young adults. I am committed to instilling hope in the lives of clients and their families. I love what I do and feel honored to have the opportunity to walk along side of you during this season of life.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in Thornton
Searching for therapists in Thornton starts with finding the right fit for the kind of support you want. People look for therapy for many reasons, including anxiety, depression, grief, relationship challenges, life transitions, stress, and trauma. As you compare therapists, look for training, specialties, and approaches that match your needs. A therapist’s profile can help you understand whether they use methods like cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, eye movement desensitization and reprocessing, or acceptance and commitment therapy.
Thornton is a smaller city, so local in-person options may be more limited depending on your schedule, neighborhood, and preferences. Virtual therapy can expand your options across Colorado while still letting you work with a therapist licensed in the state. When narrowing your search, consider appointment availability, whether the therapist is accepting new patients, session format, and whether they offer a free phone consultation. Reading bios before you book can also help you compare communication style, areas of focus, and what a first session may include.
Therapy in Thornton can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs. Headway helps you find therapists who accept a wide range of insurance plans, verify your benefits, and see an estimated cost before booking. You can browse therapists, review profiles, and book directly when you’re ready.
