You deserve a therapeutic space where you can show up exactly as you are; never managed, rushed, or judged. You don't need to have everything figured out before reaching out. Whether you’re a first responder carrying the unique, unsaid weight of the job (and its impact on your family), a student drowning in campus stress, an adoptee processing identity and loss, or simply an adult navigating life's constant plot twists, it is easy to get trapped in a loop of anxiety, cumulative stress, or self-medication. If you feel like you are just treading water, I offer a grounded environment where we can team up, figure out what is keeping you stuck, and help you move from surviving to thriving.

My practice is rooted in trauma-informed, evidence-based care tailored to your individual life. My clinical foundation was built on the front lines of emergency departments and sober living environments, sitting alongside individuals in their most critical hours. Today, that experience shapes my work as I complete my Master’s in Clinical Mental Health Counseling at UCCS (holding a prior Master’s in Forensic Psychology) toward dual licensure as an LPC and LAC. I combine deep self-insight with practical, everyday tools so you can build resilience, find breathing room, and create lasting change on your own terms. 

Taking that first step can feel intimidating, but you don't have to carry the heavy stuff alone. Whether you are untangling past experiences or figuring out your next steps, we will take it one step at a time with steady patience and unwavering warmth. Whenever you're ready, send a message. I'm here to walk alongside you.
