Welcome—I’m so glad you’re here. Reaching out for yourself or your child takes care, intention, and courage, and I’m honored you’re exploring what support could look like for you or your family.
You may be someone who always seems to have it together on the outside while feeling overwhelmed on the inside. Maybe you find yourself people-pleasing, second-guessing your decisions, or carrying the weight of past experiences that continue to shape your relationships and sense of self. Perhaps you're tired of anxiety, self-doubt, or patterns that leave you feeling disconnected, emotionally exhausted, or stuck. If you're longing to feel more grounded, confident, and connected—to yourself and the people you care about—you don't have to navigate that journey alone.
Together, we'll explore the experiences that have shaped you with curiosity and compassion. We'll identify your needs, deepen your self-awareness, and strengthen your ability to trust yourself and advocate for what matters to you. As healing unfolds, you'll build a more secure relationship with yourself, cultivate healthier and more fulfilling relationships with others, and move through everyday life with greater peace, resilience, and authenticity.
If your child is experiencing challenges at school and in relationships with impulse control, emotion regulation, school difficulties, attachment struggles, and social skills, then I'm the right fit. Through engaging activities and an attachment focus, I help children express themselves, build secure connections, and develop effective coping strategies to increase their success at school and at home.
Intensive Trauma Treatment Certification
As a graduate of Colorado State University-Pueblo in May 2025, I received my Master of Social Work (MSW) degree in August 2025. I am also a Licensed Social Worker (LSW) and a Social Work Candidate (SWC). With over 7 years of experience in human services, I have had the privilege of working with diverse populations, supporting families involved with the Department of Human Services as a life skills worker. Additionally, I spent a year providing clinical services as a therapist during my final year of school. Working in this field has allowed me to truly appreciate the significance of mental health stability, particularly during difficult life transitions. I understand that life’s obstacles can feel overwhelming at times, making the path forward seem daunting. It’s completely normal to feel as though you’re carrying a heavy burden, and I want you to know that you don’t have to navigate these challenges alone.
Healthy communication and exploring the next steps in your life can be empowering and essential for healing, whether you are dealing with depression, unhealthy coping mechanisms, stress, trauma, maladaptive behaviors, or concerns about self-esteem. My aim is to collaborate with you, providing support and understanding as we work together. I am dedicated to helping you raise awareness around your feelings and experiences, equipping you with therapeutic tools to foster growth in the areas that matter most to you. I am passionate about using evidence-based practices, such as cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), trauma-informed care, and solution-focused brief therapy, to help you overcome challenges and achieve personal growth. I look forward to building a strong, trusting relationship with you. Together, we can embark on this journey toward healing and positive change, ensuring that you feel supported every step of the way.
Do you feel like you’re constantly giving your all, yet it never quite feels like enough? Are you the one everyone relies on who forgets to take care of themself? Do you find yourself wondering why, despite everything you do, something still feels like it’s missing? Many people live this way, overextended, overlooked, and quietly exhausted, while trying to hold their relationships, responsibilities, and expectations together. Over time, always prioritizing others and neglecting your own needs can leave you feeling unfulfilled and disconnected from the life you’re working so hard to maintain. It doesn’t have to stay this way. A more balanced, meaningful, and genuinely fulfilling life is possible.
As a people-pleasing, eldest daughter I know firsthand how hard it can be to feel like you never quite measure up to the expectations of others. I truly believe that life isn’t meant to feel this hard or this heavy all the time. You don’t have to keep pushing through on your own or stay stuck in a cycle that leaves you drained and unfulfilled. My approach to therapy begins with you, right where you are, without pressure or judgment. From there, we will work together to understand what’s been weighing on you and help you chart a path forward that feels aligned and sustainable. Along the way, you’ll build a stronger sense of control, learn practical tools to reduce overwhelm, and begin creating space for a life that feels more balanced, meaningful, and truly your own.
Many of us spend so much time taking care of everyone else that we forget what it feels like to take care of ourselves. We push through stress, trauma, loss, relationship challenges, work demands, and daily responsibilities because that's what we've always done. Over time, that constant pressure can leave us feeling exhausted, disconnected, overwhelmed, or stuck.
As a Psychologist Candidate with a PhD in Clinical Psychology, I work with adults navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, burnout, adjustment to changes, ADHD, autism spectrum level one concerns, relationship difficulties, and challenges related to stress, identity, and personal growth. I have a particular passion for working with first responders, veterans, healthcare professionals, and other helping professionals who often carry significant responsibilities while putting their own needs last.
Our work isn't about fixing what's "wrong" with you. It's about understanding your story, recognizing what has helped you survive, and developing tools that help you move forward with greater confidence, clarity, and resilience. My approach is collaborative, evidence-based, and tailored to your unique needs, goals, and strengths so that therapy feels meaningful, practical, and supportive of the life you want to create.
