I am a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in the State of CO. I have received my Bachelor of Science in human services from Metropolitan State University, and my Master of Arts in school counseling and clinical counseling from the University of Northern Colorado. I have spent 16 years in the mental health field working with diverse populations.
I place a big emphasis on family systems, not just as we view our families in the present moment, but also how we have come to develop our own family systems throughout our childhood. Specializing in teens and young adults has given me the ability to see how needs change with time and how adaptations can be made along the way to better serve adulthood. I focus on the most significant relationships, whether that be intimate partnerships, or otherwise, in order to use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT), as well as solutions-focused modalities to help clients better understand how beliefs, perspectives, and thoughts could potentially be limiting them from accomplishing their goals.
The therapeutic relationship is everything to me, so I am incredibly motivated to align, connect, and identify strengths as the organic exploration of getting to the best version of ourselves takes place.
