Obsessive-compulsive disorder therapists & psychiatrists in Littleton, CO

Many of us feel overwhelmed by the world that we live in. It helps to have someone to listen about the concerns we have or the things that make us feel despair. Therapy can be a great way to get some of these feelings out of our heads and into the world where they often appear more manageable and less overwhelming. I believe therapy should be collaborative and that I, as the therapist, should sit with you in whatever state you are in and that we should both work together to address your needs.

I am accepting new clients.

We all need someone to listen to, understand, and support us, especially during times of uncertainty and transition. My goal is to create a safe, therapeutic space in which you feel comfortable to be yourself and share your fears, hopes, and struggles. As each client is a unique individual, I feel the process of counseling should be tailored to meet your specific needs. I believe you are the expert in your own life, and have the innate ability to heal.

I'm a gentle and insightful therapist with an approach that is effective, impacting, and can help you bring about change and transformation in your life and relationships

We have the power to create and to recreate our world through the process of our own thinking. Sometimes all we need is the right guide to help us discover and live that process. It has been my privilege to have served as such a guide. Specializing in the integrative cognitive-behavioral treatment of anxiety, depression, OCD, trauma, and related disorders, I bring a holistic orientation to my work by considering not just psychological factors, but environmental factors as well. Through this approach, coupled with a commitment to close collaboration between therapist and client in order to promote healing and change, I have witnessed extraordinary empowerment in my clients throughout the years.

I came to Clinical Social Work and psychotherapy at middle age, after a long and pretty successful career in the theatre. The same passion for understanding human behavior as an actor led me to seek my Masters in Social Work from Fordham University, graduating Suma Cum Laude in 2007. I have provided concrete social services to marginalized populations while starting and maintaining a small private practice since then. Just under three years ago, I went exclusively private and see clients full-time in virtual sessions.

My priority is to provide a safe, compassionate, and non-judgmental space where you feel heard, respected, and supported. With over 40 years in healthcare—including service as a former Navy Nurse Corps Officer and retired military veteran—I bring values of resilience, trust, and teamwork into every therapeutic relationship. I view care as a partnership and work to empower you to take an active role in your mental health.
