I grew up in Colorado, and attended a private college in Kansas. I studied counseling at Regis University in Denver. I work with clients who often put their own needs aside to care for others. I strive to balance directive and nondirective approaches, so you have space to talk about your feelings and experiences while also learning different tools for coping.
Building self-compassion is foundational in my work with clients. Sometimes we're good at extending a sensitive approach to others' struggles, and we forget to redirect that kindness back to ourselves. During treatment, I'll help you learn that self-compassion can be sustaining in all you do.
Clients can expect to feel heard and supported during sessions with me. I work with humility and compassion, and hope you'll feel seen. Taking the first step toward support is an act of courage — and it can open the door to real, lasting change.
