I earned my doctorate degree in clinical psychology from the University of Denver and have been in private practice for over ten years. I consider it an honor to be in relationship with my clients and to help them better understand themselves and change their lives. I strive to celebrate and create a safe space for all aspects of your identity.
I have experience working with clients across the life-span on a number of issues including life transitions, anxiety, depression, LGBTQ+ concerns, etc. I specialize in grief/loss and suicidality as these are topics that I feel often get pushed to the side. I especially enjoy working with teens and folks in the LGBTQ+ community.

I see my job as helping folks examine why we beat ourselves and others up emotionally, and how to do something different. Together, we’ll work on figuring out what matters most to you and navigating toward it. If you value straight-forwardness, humor, geeky metaphors, and having someone sit with you in the discomfort, we are probably a good match.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in Wheat Ridge
Finding the right therapist in Wheat Ridge starts with getting clear on what you're looking for. Consider whether you want help with a specific concern — such as anxiety, depression, trauma, or relationship challenges — or broader support during a life transition. Look for a licensed provider (such as an LPC, LCSW, psychologist, or psychiatrist) who has experience with your needs. On Headway, you can review detailed provider bios to learn about their approach, specialties, and style before you book.
Wheat Ridge is part of the broader Denver metro area, and many providers serve clients across Arvada, Lakewood, Golden, and surrounding communities. Both virtual and in-person sessions are widely available, so you can choose the format that fits your schedule and preferences.
Therapy in the Denver metro area can be expensive out of pocket. Using your in-network insurance benefits is one of the most reliable ways to reduce what you pay per session. On Headway, you can enter your insurance details to see estimated session costs upfront, and your out-of-pocket expense may be as low as $0 per session, though costs may vary based on your location and exact insurance coverage. Nationally, Headway partners with over 100 insurance plans, making it easier to find a provider who fits both your clinical needs and your budget.
