Transition, loss, confusion, disconnection, loneliness, sadness, anger, grief, anxiety, pain, emotional dysregulation, relationship conflict, low self-esteem. These are all normal feelings and experiences that come and go throughout life, but sometimes they grow unmanageable and disrupt our health, well-being, and day to day functioning. Perhaps you are experiencing a radical transition, feeling deeply uncomfortable where you are in life, moving through trauma, or are currently in a place of suffering.  You deserve to feel whole, healthy, and connected. You deserve help and support in navigating a path to feeling better.   You are not alone!  

With respect, empathy, and kindness, I strive to create a safe, welcoming, and shame-free space that fosters brave discovery and positive change.  I have a deep clinical interest in women's health (cis, trans, non-binary, or self-defined), men’s issues, sexual health, menopause, divorce, attachment wounds, relational conflict, adjustment and transitions, identity formation, anxiety, and depression.  I practice using a trauma informed approach with the perspective that you are a unique individual who deserves counseling specifically tailored to your issues, concerns, and culture.  Utilizing modalities such as CBT, ACT, somatic, mindfulness, humanistic, and psychodynamic, together we will collaborate on a highly personal, whole-person approach to your most pressing issues, and find a path forward that steadily improves your life.

Prior to counseling, I was a touring singer-songwriter, guitarist, and recording artist for nearly 20 years. In 2022, I returned to CU Boulder to finish my BA in History, focusing on menopause and aging in the U.S.  I am currently a second year Master’s candidate in counseling psychology, with a focus on clinical mental health, at the University of Denver.  When not seeing clients or studying, I love to hike in the foothills, cook extravagant meals for my community, and snuggle with my elderly yellow lab, Ellie (aka: BabyDog).
