Your Journey, Your Healing, Your Terms

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.

One of the most profound forms of self-love is the decision we make that we are worthy of being fully heard and seen. While therapy can feel intimidating or uncomfortable, it is my priority to create a safe environment where clients can feel authentically themselves. I approach the therapeutic process as walking alongside you, as we work towards the areas you feel are most important to you. I value warmth, genuineness, empathy, learning, and our relationship as the most essential components of therapy. From my experiences working with individuals, couples, and families, I have witnessed the magic of therapy and the unwavering resilience of humans. You are deserving of living a life free of the weights you carry. If you are willing to have me on your side, I would be honored to support you.

Maybe everything hurts, our hearts shadowed and strange. But only when everything hurts may everything change. - Amanda Gorman. Everyone's lived experiences are vastly different and finding a therapist who can honor and understand these differences is essential to success. My approach to therapy is client-centered, meaning that I believe in tailoring our sessions to meet your individual experiences, needs, and goals. From an LGBTQ+ inclusive feminist lens, my approach integrates the understanding that we must look at ourselves holistically within the context of our communities, relationships, society, and internal selves.No matter what you are facing, my ultimate goal as a therapist is to provide a safe, non-judgmental, empowering space for you to explore your inner strength and see your true value. With proper support and guidance, you can heal and reach your full potential. My background includes mental health care for children, teenagers, and adults, survivors of violence and exploitation, gender and sexuality-affirming care, couples/relational care, and the processing of traumatic experiences. See below for further specializations and services.If you are ready to take the first step towards better mental health, I am here to support you every step of the way.

I've been fortunate to practice as a therapist since my internship/practicum as a therapist in 2011 and graduating with my Master of Arts in Professional Counseling in May of 2012. My career began in a practice that specialized in general mental health challenges such as depression, anxiety, parenting support, and couples counseling to treating abuse survivors of varying ages and degrees of severity. After a few years in that practice, I began work as a Clinical Coordinator and Counselor who's caseload consisted of mostly children, teens and their families with the goal of healing trauma and building a safe, loving and respectful environment for all. Over the course of the last decade I have run my own private practice where I've done work with couples, grief and loss, relationship difficulty, divorce, trauma, teens, parenting support, chronic illness and managing various life challenges and mental health concerns my clients need support with. At present, I am in the final stages of completing my Doctorate of Education in Community Care and Counseling with a Traumatology emphasis. This has created opportunity for me to learn even more in the field of trauma and therapeutic treatments that support sustainable healing. I have an eclectic therapeutic approach that has been developed by my 14+ years of therapeutic experience, trainings/practice and my own personal experience as a wife, mother, woman and person navigating life. My treatment style is tailored to what the client needs, honesty in facing the pain or difficulty that client may be managing, while holding hope for healing and a better future. I am a big believer that trauma and life experience wounds can be managed/soothed and no-one is beyond redemption if they choose to start the process of healing. I am looking forward to working with you, your family and your significant others.

I believe one of the biggest challenges we face when navigating uncertain, difficult, or trying periods of life is finding the courage to reach out and ask for help.

I will meet you where you are, partner with you, and walk alongside you to achieve your goals. I am here to help you find hope and strength again. I look forward to working with you.

Hi there! I'm Annie, and I am originally from Arizona. I am a 22-year retired Air Force Veteran and a 20-year Coloradan. I am an avid holistic wellness enthusiast. I specialize in chronic illness, autoimmune struggles, unresolved childhood/partner/religious trauma, and the grief that comes with those. I am a mom of two kiddos and an American Akita owner. I love to laugh as we heal. Healing can be fun! Life is often referred to as a book. Two pages are written for everyone; the first is about LIFE, and the last is about death. The center pages are empty. What you write in those pages can be whatever you choose. Even when the book gets dirty, torn, or broken, the blank pages are still there...waiting for you to fill them. Life is full of twists and turns, and how we are fundamentally taught to handle life varies from person to person. We are all so unique. My view of therapy is that of a helpmate. I walk alongside you in your journey toward healing and wholeness. Trauma is written in every single one of our books to some degree. What happens to us can often become a part of our identity. I aim to help you reclaim your true self and walk out of trauma with newfound hope and vision to fill those pages of your story. Let's do this together!

I strongly admire all that social work represents, from relationship building and self-determination to skill strengthening and empowerment, as well as cultivating agency and self-advocacy among individuals and communities, and highlighting the importance of putting systems theory into practice.
