Therapists in Aurora, CO

I am current accepting new clients and am telehealth only at this time. I offer a relaxed and pressure free environment so you can work at your pace. I offer a safe and non-judgmental environment so you can feel comfortable eventually talking about anything with me. Therapy should be tailored to what YOU need and want.

I can help you learn to set and hold boundaries, have healthier relationships, and improve your self-confidence. With 13 years of experience, I can offer a wide variety of treatments and tools.

I work best with clients who are looking for an informal, supportive setting where they can learn skills that help them manage their lives more effectively, whether the problem is big feelings, a disconnect in relationships with those close to you, ADHD symptoms, trouble with boundaries and assertiveness, or anger and controlling behavior--anything that makes you feel like you've somehow gotten away from the person you'd like to be.

Online Counseling sessions available. Anxiety and stress about the future are common experiences. Let me help you find some alternative approaches to finding peace of mind and tools to calm your thoughts.

My view of human nature is one full of strength and resiliency. We all have the desire to live healthy and productive lives, but at times we face the challenges of unexpected life events, loss, and stressors. This is where a positive, validating and accepting relationship with your counselor becomes invaluable. Counseling provides a client dedicated time focused on present day issues as well as past experiences still impacting overall wellbeing. Empowerment, believing in yourself and learning how to like, love and accept your whole person is my goal as your therapist.

The process of self-discovery can be both incredibly difficult and immensely satisfying. Sometimes we seek it out, yet at other times it finds us through painful and uncomfortable experiences. At the core of my work is a deep respect for your lived experiences and perspectives, while keeping a curious mind to better understand your inner systems.

Clients come to me because they are struggling with symptoms related to anxiety, depression, addiction, anger, difficulty coping with stress, trauma recovery, low self esteem, and difficulty in life transitions. I help people reframe their perceptions about challenges in their lives while building the awareness and skillset to reduce symptoms and better regulate emotions. My client's desire to leave fear and negativity behind them, while learning to position themselves to feel more peace and joy as they shift their perspective to promote vitality.

I specialize in working with families and children who are suffering; and with children who continue to act out with dangerous and disruptive behaviors. Please reach out to accept help and understanding.

Have you been feeling stuck and are ready to feel empowered again? My first step as a psychotherapist is to meet the client where they are at in any given phase in treatment. I build rapport through my sense of warmth and empathy. The next step is to provide reflections so that the client can gain self-awareness and clarity, identifying patterns and understanding how systems and cultural factors have influenced the messages we have received throughout our lives. With this gained knowledge, the goal is to identify what has no longer been serving us so that we can reach empowerment and self-efficacy.

I conceptualize therapy not as a static moment in time, but as an active, winding journey. I utilize Narrative and Somatic Therapies to challenge problematic stories we tell ourselves and rewrite our roles in them, learning how to live presently and understand emotion, especially as it exists within our bodies. Additionally, I specialize in trauma work with Brainspotting and Trauma-focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to heal and integrate adverse experiences.
