I'm a board-certified psychiatric mental health nurse practitioner passionate about providing quality, evidence-based mental health care to adults, adolescents, and children ages six and older. I believe in empowering clients by providing mindful care and helping each person achieve their highest level of functioning, stability, and well-being. I bring over 20 years of experience in healthcare to Overcomers Counseling. I provide compassionate care, brief psychotherapy, and medication management to clients with a wide range of mental health concerns, including anxiety disorders, mood disorders, psychotic disorders, post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), and ADD/ADHD. Please note I do not prescribe daily benzodiazepines (clonazepam, alprazolam, valium, etc.) or hypnotic sleep aids. I am not able to complete disability paperwork for clients that I have known for less than six months.

I am a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner who provides individualized and evidence-based care to people with a wide variety of mental health concerns in an environment that is professional, respectful, and empathetic. Seeking help can be intimidating. When I first meet someone, I strive to create a safe environment for each client to feel heard, supported, and comfortable. I get to know each client as a whole person with a unique history, life experiences, interests, and goals. My approach to care is always collaborative and flexible, with clients as active participants in their care. By working together, I am confident I can help clients minimize their distressing symptoms, attain a sense of fulfillment, and improve their quality of life.

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."

With a deep commitment to fostering growth, resilience, and empowerment, I strive to create a warm, non-judgmental, and collaborative therapeutic environment where clients feel heard, valued, and supported on their path toward healing and self-discovery. Whether you are seeking support for anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship issues, or navigating life transitions, I am here to accompany you on your journey toward greater well-being and fulfillment. I am committed to creating a safe and validating space for my clients, empowering them to navigate and overcome. My passion for mental health advocacy and continuous professional development underscores my commitment to providing the highest quality care.
