As a counselor, my goal is to aid you in reclaiming your inner strength and resilience, empowering you to heal from past wounds, overcome obstacles, and navigate the challenges that life may bring. I am here to guide and support you as you work through difficult emotions and experiences, helping you to uncover hidden strengths and develop new coping strategies. I strive to create a safe, non-judgmental, and supportive space where you can openly explore your emotions, identify patterns or behaviors that no longer serve you, and set meaningful goals for personal growth. Together, we will work to uncover a deeper, more meaningful sense of self—grounded in self-discovery, authenticity, and a greater understanding of your unique journey. Whether you are looking to process past trauma, strengthen relationships, or gain clarity about your direction in life, I am here to walk alongside you every step of the way.

I believe that life and mental health are a journey. My job is to walk alongside you on this journey until you feel comfortable navigating life on your own. Therapy is essential for unlocking the best versions of ourselves. I am an LPCC in the state of Colorado, and I look forward to working with you. I have worked in mental health for the past seven years, including roles as a mental health technician in a hospital, answering crisis intervention phone lines, providing in-person crisis intervention, and offering individual clinical mental health therapy. It can be challenging to navigate life's twists and turns alone. Therapy provides a safe space to explore our inner selves, thoughts, and feelings, gaining insights to overcome obstacles and achieve personal growth. As your therapist, my role is to provide unwavering support and guidance as you embark on this journey of self-discovery.

As a therapist, I bring authenticity and humor into our time together. I aim to create a space where you feel comfortable being yourself and opening up to work on your goals. I will strive to name and provide the words that empower you to speak about your experiences and help reduce any shame, guilt, or stigma you may be carrying. Although those emotions are a heavy burden to carry alone, I look forward to sharing the weight and helping you feel more confident and in control moving forward. Therapy is about you, and you are the expert on yourself; I am a guide to help you explore in a validating and supportive space. I utilize person-centered therapy, which focuses on unconditional positive regard. As humans, we make mistakes, and I am here to help you recognize what other factors contributed to your behavior to enable the change you desire. When I am not providing therapy, you can catch me out hiking, going to cultural events, and learning to play the ukulele. I am originally from Alaska but fell in love with the Colorado sunshine and am content to see the mountains a little bit further away. I’m a happy plant mom of 20, and yes, they are all flourishing.

Hello! I want my clients to feel empowered by their mental health journey to learn how to love themselves and those around them. I would be honored to walk alongside you! My approach to therapy is "Parts Work" (Gestalt and Internal Family Systems), meaning that I believe we have various parts of ourselves that make up the whole of who we are. Together, we will work collaboratively to identify these parts that may be holding you back from reaching your goals. We will step into a new awareness together and empower you to make the changes you desire. I have experience working with individuals from all walks of life and specialize in multiple mental health conditions. Whether you are struggling with anxiety, depression, relationship issues, or any other mental health concern, I am here to provide a safe and non-judgmental space for you to explore your thoughts and feelings. As a retired collegiate athlete, I also enjoy serving other athletes struggling with anxiety, trauma, and performance. One thing that sets me apart as a therapist is my honest and authentic nature. I truly care about every one of my clients and am committed to helping them grow and thrive. I am ready to join you in your self-discovery and healing journey!

Therapy is truly a unique process for each individual. It takes bravery to embark on a journey toward greater mental health. Humans are incredibly resilient, and I enjoy watching my clients experience life-changing transformations. I strive to build a safe and trusting environment where my clients feel supported throughout their healing journey. My goals include building rapport, providing emotional encouragement, offering psychoeducation, engaging in collaborative problem-solving, and utilizing new skills to foster positive long-term change. I desire to see my clients thrive in all areas of their lives and consider it an honor to be part of their healing journey!
