Perhaps many of us wish that our lives were easier, happier, less frustrating, more satisfying, or filled with meaning and positive experiences. At times, life circumstances may be out of your control. Sometimes you may feel you have the power to change your situation, and other times you may feel that you do not. Even when your external situation cannot be changed, your internal world, like your thoughts and emotions and the way you view the world is within your control.

Everyone suffers to some degree whether it be from a lost job, a traumatic event, ongoing depression, anxiety, the state of the world, or worry over a loved one. Or maybe you are having difficulty in your marriage or relationship or coping with postpartum depression and transitioning into life as a parent, or suffering from grief from the loss of a loved one. Life is full of these experiences. And it can be difficult to figure out what part of our experiences are within our means to change and what part we lean into with acceptance.

Therapy is a process of discovering your own wisdom to discern how to move forward, what you can accept, and what you want to change. And often, it is through the act of accepting our circumstances for what they are that change begins to happen. But that is a scary road to go alone. Therapy is a process for not only overcoming fears, anxieties, depressions, and grief, but also of developing an empowered and deeper relationship with oneself and as a result, with others as well.

If you would like to take that first step, please don’t hesitate to call.

I am experienced psychologist based in Denver.  I strive to foster a genuine and compassionate space so that we may collaboratively work toward understanding your current struggles.

Within the therapeutic space that we create together, personal empowerment, self exploration, and desired change can happen.

Your strengths, as well as your understanding of the current state of your internal world will inform therapy. As we work together, I will guide you toward identified areas where you may be stuck and with that knowledge we can work toward helping you lead the full life you deserve.

Seeking support and therapy is a brave and courageous step. Thank you for trusting me with this part of your journey. Therapy with me is a collaborative process of working through the difficulties you are experiencing and finding solutions to help you feel connected to yourself. I want to help you move forward in your life, to find a space that feels fulfilling and joyful. Will it be challenging? Yes, AND it will be worth it when you come through the other side richer, more connected, and grounded in your goals, relationships, and dreams.

Life can throw curves our way that we never anticipated. It frequently is helpful to have someone beside us who genuinely cares and is willing to do the hard work with us. I’ll help you to uncover your innermost self and provide you with gentle but direct feedback about obstacles that can get in the way of you living the life you desire.

I am a relationship-based therapist and use approaches based on your needs. We often internalize beliefs and become set in relational patterns that have lifelong impacts. When these beliefs and patterns become rigid rather than flexible, our relationships with ourselves and with others suffer.

If the changing seasons, life transitions, depression, anxiety, trauma, or relationships are keeping you from living the life you desire, let’s talk.
