I earned my Master of Social Work from the Metropolitan State University of Denver. For the past six years I have been an Elementary School Social Worker. In that role, I support students through crisis events, family changes, and challenges within the classroom. In my private practice I meet in person and online with adults in all life stages.
I believe in the importance of partnership in the client-therapist relationship. We both have meaningful parts to bring to the session. You know yourself best and what you would like to gain from our time together. I aim to work within your value system and current goals as we construct solutions together. In that process, I will also be sharing skills with you around body awareness, recognizing emotions, and coping with stress.
Clients can expect to feel encouraged, even after challenging sessions. This comes from it being a time in which your story is respected and your personal strengths are appreciated. Creative methods incorporating sand, art, and play therapy techniques can be a refreshing addition to sessions and help those who are new to the setting become more comfortable.
