Obsessive-compulsive disorder therapists & psychiatrists in Woodland Park, CO

Completed my adult psychiatry residency at Duke University Medical Center and recognize the importance of synergistic effects of pharmacotherapy and psychotherapy to achieve best clinical outcomes. Beyond Medical school and Psychiatric residency, I completed an additional Ph.D. in Neurosciences, fostering a deeper understanding of the field of Psychiatry and psychotropic treatment options. I have additional knowledge and experience in adjunct treatments including TMS and Ketamine.

As your Psychiatric-Mental Health Nurse Practitioner, I want you to know that I am here for you every step of the way. You can trust that I am fully committed to your well-being and dedicated to providing you with the highest quality of care.

Something positive, warm, and uplifting about me as your PMHNP is that I genuinely believe in your strength and resilience. I see your potential for growth and healing, even during the toughest of times. Together, we'll navigate through the challenges.

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.

I believe that you deserve to be your happiest, healthiest, and most empowered self.
