I earned my master's degree from Newman University and have experience supporting individuals through a variety of life struggles. I believe everyone carries their own story and unique strengths, and I'm passionate about helping people uncover their potential. My approach is eclectic and tailored to fit your needs, with a focus on building skills in mindfulness, distress tolerance, and emotion regulation so you can feel more grounded and empowered in everyday life. I create a safe, judgment-free space where you can show up just as you are. I know taking that first step toward healing can feel intimidating, but it's one of the bravest things you can do for yourself. You don't have to do it alone - let's work together to find the path forward. You're worth it.

You are embarking on an important journey of growth and healing, and it is my privilege to come alongside you in that journey and ultimately to meet your need with truth, hope, and healing. My counseling orientation is integrative, enabling me, as your therapist, to tailor the counseling interventions to your particular needs. Approaches may include Motivational Interviewing, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Person-Centered Therapy, Trauma-informed therapy, Biblical Counseling, Narrative therapy, Somatic therapy, IFS, and more. In addition, I am trained and comfortable working with thoughts and feelings of suicide. As holistic beings, all aspects—physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual—contribute to our overall experience of wholeness and wellness. I look forward to joining you in your journey toward wellness.

I believe therapy should feel like a safe space to land—a place where you can show up exactly as you are and feel seen, heard, and supported. Whether you're navigating past trauma, current life stressors, relationship challenges, or anxiety, my goal is to walk alongside you with compassion, curiosity, and care. I’m a Social Work Candidate with a Master of Social Work from Metropolitan State University of Denver and over 11 years of experience in the mental health field. I’ve had the privilege of supporting children, teens, and adults in a variety of settings, and I bring a deep respect for each person’s unique story and strengths. My approach to therapy is holistic, client-centered, and grounded in the belief that healing looks different for everyone. I draw from a range of therapeutic methods, including cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), mindfulness, recreational and art-based practices, and I am currently deepening my work in somatic and expressive therapies. Most importantly, I tailor each session to your individual needs, goals, and pace. It’s not always easy to reach out for support, but I truly believe in the transformative power of the therapeutic relationship. If you’re looking for a therapist who will meet you with warmth, authenticity, and a genuine desire to help you grow, I’d be honored to connect with you.
