Find Your Counselor

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.

Together we use the therapy space to co-create a space where you feel safe to show up exactly as you are. My approach centers on exploring your internal landscape—your emotions, values, patterns, and lived experiences—with curiosity and compassion. I believe in your innate capacity for growth, meaning, and self-understanding while attending to questions of purpose, meaning, freedom, and responsibility. I also incorporate elements of wilderness and nature-based therapy, drawing on the power of the natural world to support reflection, grounding, and deeper self-connection. Together, we work toward greater authenticity, clarity, and a more grounded connection to yourself and your life.

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. 

Something about the way you're living doesn't feel right — maybe you can't quite name it yet, but you know it's there. That's exactly where we start. I specialize in working with women (ages 15+), helping my clients untangle what's not working and get back to enjoying their lives and relationships.

My approach blends Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), mindfulness-based practices, and whole life wellness — because you're not just a set of symptoms, you're a whole person. My practice is grounded in secular, evidence-based modalities; if faith-based or spiritually integrated counseling is important to you, I'd encourage you to seek a therapist who specializes in that area to ensure the best fit.

A Colorado native, I double majored in Psychology and Acting at CU Boulder, and earned my Master's in Counseling from Adams State University. I live in Boulder County with my husband, three dogs, and one cat — and when I'm not in session, you'll find me hiking, reading crime dramas, doing home projects, traveling, or volunteering with local dog rescues. 🐾
