You to become an expert "on you".

You learn about your defenses, your triggers, and your trauma. You learn what your style pertaining to being challenged and attached?

I hold a Bachelor's degree in Psychology and a Master's degree in Social Work. I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW), with extensive experience in both community settings and private practice. I specialize in supporting women through the unique challenges they face in life. I offer a compassionate, empathetic approach to help women navigate anxiety, depression, struggles with identity, and the journey toward recognizing their self-worth.

With decades of experience, I am well-versed in many different modalities. No one approach works for everyone, so I built a large tool kit to have a broad range of tools available. Areas of expertise include individual, couples and family counseling, trauma recovery, anxiety, depression, special needs of gifted and talented, medical social work, impact of illness, traumatic brain injury, grief and bereavement, positive aging, geriatrics and end of life issues. Having been raised in a military family I enjoy working with our veterans, active duty personnel and their families.

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor and have been living in Colorado since 2005. I have a Master's of Science degree in Counseling with an emphasis on Marriage, Family, and Child Therapy. I specialize in working with children, teens, and young adults who have experienced trauma, struggle with anxiety and/or depression symptoms, grief, self-esteem, and relationship issues.

Reaching out can be hard and I am here to help begin the process of healing and being there to help us become a better you. My goal and desire is to help teach you and provide you the essentials to overcome your obstacles. When life gets overwhelming at times, we forget to take care of ourselves. Depression and anxiety does not have to be a part of your everyday life.

I have 26 years of experience dealing with individuals, couples, families in therapy. We will work together to develop plans that are unique and right for you.

I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and founder of Niyama Integrative Therapy. I provide trauma-informed therapy for adults navigating anxiety, depression, life transitions, and complex relational patterns. Many of the clients I work with are capable and high-functioning on the outside, while internally carrying chronic stress, unresolved trauma, or emotional exhaustion. You may be navigating burnout, relationship strain, identity shifts, or long-standing family dynamics that still shape how you move through the world.

I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist with over two decades of clinical experience. My work has focused on helping people understand themselves more deeply, strengthen relationships, heal from difficult experiences, and create meaningful change in their lives.

I believe lasting change happens when we move beyond simply understanding a problem intellectually and begin experiencing ourselves differently. Together, we explore patterns, emotional and bod responses, beliefs, and relationship dynamics that may have developed as adaptations earlier in life but are no longer serving you.

Clients often describe me as warm, direct, engaged, and insightful. I tend to be an active therapist who asks questions, offers observations, and helps connect patterns that may be difficult to see from the inside. While therapy can be challenging, I believe it should also feel collaborative, practical, and grounded in hope.
