I work with adults (18+) navigating a wide range of challenges, including trauma, grief, ADHD, anxiety, identity exploration, and life transitions. My approach is trauma-informed and deeply compassionate, grounded in the belief that healing unfolds through connection, trust, and nervous system safety. Drawing from the principles of Polyvagal Theory, I support clients in understanding how their autonomic responses are adaptive and rooted in the body’s innate drive for protection. Together, we work to gently restore a sense of regulation, safety, and connection. I tailor therapy to each individual's unique needs by integrating a variety of modalities, including Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), Internal Family Systems (IFS-informed), somatic therapy, person-centered and psychodynamic therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and mindfulness practices.

I hold specialized training in ADHD treatment and am an ADHD-Certified Clinical Services Provider. My advanced clinical training includes EMDRIA-Approved EMDR Basic Training (Parts 1 & 2), Advanced EMDR Skills Training through the Trauma Therapist Institute, Foundations of Internal Family Systems Therapy, IFS-informed EMDR, Embodied Healing for Developmental Trauma, and specialized OCD trainings. My practice is LGBTQIA+ affirming and committed to creating a safe, inclusive space for all identities.

Having a hard time focusing? Thinking and thinking about why you are not doing what you want to be doing? Feeling like no one can help you change? The confusion can be overwhelming and cause anxiety and depression symptoms that interfere with relationships and personal development. Change is difficult and together we can explore the parts of your life that may be in conflict or turmoil. It is time to put yourself first and through exploration, you'll build internal strength, resilience, and resources to support a more complete you.

As a therapist that is informed by relational therapy, I believe we don't only heal with therapeutic strategies and techniques; we also heal in relationships and communities with one another. This means that my number one priority as your therapist is to develop a trusting and meaningful connection with you where you feel safe, seen, and regarded. My communication style varies from person to person because there is not one single way to show up and be present as a therapist.

“How we relate to whatever we're experiencing is even more important than the experience itself " -Bruce Tift

I believe we all have a natural impulse towards evolution and health. Through training and discipline we can greatly accelerate this process.

Survival strategies needed in childhood, arising from our intelligence, are no longer appropriate and can cause unnecessary suffering. These outdated approaches are primarily unconscious. I provide a safe non judgmental space to get to know your patterns with an attitude of kindness. This awareness can give you the freedom to choose the direction you want instead of being driven by historical conditioning.

I am a licensed therapist and Certified Clinical Trauma Professional based in Colorado and Wyoming. My approach to therapy is Christian-based drawing from a range of person-centered and evidence‐informed therapeutic methods. At the heart of my work, I believe each individual has the capacity for change and growth. Even when life feels heavy, there is always a part of us that holds the gift of resilience, wisdom, and healing grace. My role is to help individuals reconnect with that part to create a grounded, supportive space where they can feel understood, regain a sense of control, and move toward the changes that matter most to them.

Hi, I’m Jess (she/her), and I’m glad you’re here. I’m a licensed clinical social worker specializing in somatic (body-based) therapy and EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing), with expressive arts woven in when it’s a good fit for a client’s process. My work centers on helping you reconnect with your body and your own sense of agency, at a pace that feels right for you. I offer a free consultation call so we can talk through your goals and make sure we’re a good match. There’s no pressure — just a conversation to see if this feels right.

I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist, parent coach, and former educator with 36 years of experience helping children, teens, parents, couples, and families move from conflict and overwhelm to greater calm, confidence, and connection.

I specialize in working with families navigating autism, ADHD, learning disabilities, anxiety, depression, emotional regulation, school challenges, and family conflict. I also help parents reduce daily power struggles, improve communication, and respond with greater confidence and consistency.

I believe lasting change happens by looking at the whole picture—not just the symptoms. My work considers the child, the parent, the family system, and the school environment to identify the patterns that keep families stuck. Together, we develop practical, individualized strategies that create meaningful, lasting change.

My goal in our first session is to help you feel comfortable, heard, and supported. We'll talk about what's bringing you in, explore the challenges you're facing, and identify what's keeping you or your family feeling stuck.

There is no pressure to have everything figured out. We'll move at a pace that feels right for you. Together, we'll begin identifying patterns, clarify your goals, and create practical next steps that feel realistic and manageable.

Whether you're seeking support for yourself, your child, your relationship, or your family, you'll leave our first session with a better understanding of what's happening and a clear direction for moving forward.
