Great to meet you!

I am a step mom, a birth mom, a wife, a therapist- I have held many positions/titles. I live in Colorado with my family, enjoying the days of sunshine. Becoming a mom helped my growth, and I like to think of myself as always in a new season- wanting to grow and do better. This allows me to show up to stand by you in your work.

My approach to therapy

I am trained in EMDR, have experience/training in ADHD (and I am a fellow neuro divergent), anxiety, trauma, depression, chronic illness, trauma, grief, and loss, foster care, IDD case management, adoption, home health/hospice, and group practice work. I want to work with you to see what feels doable but moveable for your life. You don't seek therapy to stay where you are, but I want to make it a safe space where you feel seen and heard.

What you can expect from me

If you are looking for a therapist to listen to you, support your growth, empathize, and challenge you to see your capabilities - you are in the right place. I believe in a strengths based and holistic informed approach to therapy. Sometimes the thing you need the most is a listening ear and a calm place to land. I believe that with a little support and somebody who is willing to see and hear you- you can recognize your worth.
