Hello and welcome!
I understand the decision to come to therapy can be a complex one, deserving of compassion, empathy and respect. We all hold unique identities and diverse experiences and our journey in the therapeutic process should honor that. The opportunity to hold space for individuals on their healing journeys is a privilege I hold dear, and I look forward to embarking on this path with you!

My approach to therapy is deeply person-centered, grounded in unconditional positive regard and the belief we are all inherently worthy of connection and compassion. I am guided by strengths-based and trauma-informed perspectives which seek to enhance the healing tools we may already hold inside. My goal is to provide not only a safe, but brave space, for individuals in their healing process. I believe each individual is the expert of their own lives; I am honored to be of support on these pathways to living authentically and fully.

I have background working with a wide variety of mental health concerns and populations. My specialties include work with adolescents and adults dealing with anxiety, OCD, depression and panic attacks. I also have training in work with pregnancy/postpartum journeys as well as grief, loss, and aging processes. I implement the therapeutic modality best suited for your individual needs, as therapy should not be a one-size-fits-all approach.

I earned my undergraduate degree in Psychology and my Master of Social Work degree, both from MSU Denver. I spend most of my free time participating in any creative/crafty outlet I can find, nurturing my growing plant collection, hanging out with my cat and lizards, and deepening my relationships with my partner, family, and friends.
