Therapists in Colorado Springs, CO

I help individuals who want to live their best life, free from the burdens of physical and emotional pain. Whether this is your first time entertaining the idea of therapy, or you’ve been on a journey for a while seeking growth and healing with professional guidance. Regardless of your circumstances, among other emotions, you’re likely feeling a level of frustration in this moment. I’m here to tell you that frustration is good. Yes, you read that right! Frustration is where learning begins and can be a strong motivator and catalyst for change.

The weight of emotional pain can be unbearable and lonely. It is difficult, impossible even, to envision feeling better, feeling fulfilled, feeling connected or just feeling like yourself again. These emotions may result from substance use/abuse, depression, anxiety, grief, relationship problems, or life/work stressors. I understand how daunting this first step can be and I provide a safe, warm space to help you make your way through this and find your healthy path.

Sometimes overwhelming and painful experiences from our past have a negative impact on our present. This can look like: BIG emotions in response to daily stressors Depression that just isn’t lifting Panic & anxiety that hinders your performance, sleep, & wellbeing. Be it coping with a cancer diagnosis, the aftermath of narcissistic abuse and co-dependency, healing from sexual assault, or dealing with the repercussions of a car accident - these life experiences can profoundly affect us. So often, it's a series of accumulating events that lead to chronic stress, overwhelming our current capacity to manage and cope.

I enjoy working with all kinds of people. Each of us brings our own story and none of us were meant to work through our lives alone. I believe each client has their own strengths and sometimes it's just a question of adjusting the lighting so you can see what they are. It does not matter if you're sad or lonely or frustrated, we can find a way to make life much better.

“The creation of something new is not accomplished by the intellect but by the play instinct.”- Carl Jung. As a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT), I work with all ages. I have worked with children and families for over 20 years, and my greatest joy is found in being a “helper.” Registered Play Therapist means that I have a specialty in play therapy. While this specialty equips me in a unique way to work with children and adolescents, I believe that play helps us to see our way through life's problems with fresh eyes. It's common for me to incorporate some playfulness in all my work with families and individuals.

I believe that we are complex beings of thoughts, emotions, knowledge, beliefs, behaviors, and experiences. My approach is to use cognitive-behavioral (CBT), acceptance and commitment (ACT), and positive psychology therapeutic interventions with trauma-informed care practices in a safe and non-judgmental environment to overcome stressors, heal, and grow with a foundation of compassion and empathy.

Rapid Eye Technology (RET) is a powerful ocular-assisted stress relief technique and a leading modality in treating PTSD symptoms. This powerful quick release happens without reliving the trauma. RET simulates REM sleep—your body’s own natural release system where problems are solved. Accessing the whole mind/body system while in an awake state allows you to be in control of your own journey; you now have your conscious mind to make a new choice concerning presenting issues. It's all part of your natural discharge mechanism and helps in repairing neural pathways that have been distorted by traumatic memories.

Hope.Relief.Freedom. Life has gotten progressively more difficult over the last few years. People of all ages are struggling with fatigue, discouragement, despair, and even hopelessness. All of these things result in poor performance in regulating emotions and navigating relationships, controlling behavior (especially for kids and teenagers), focusing your attention and concentration, jobs and careers, sports, academics, and daily life. Despite what you've heard, and maybe come to believe, you and your kids can put all those life "performance difficulties" behind you and thrive in a way you perhaps have never imagined.

The past few years have been traumatic for individuals and families all over the world. Many have had difficulty coping with their day-to-day struggles which has been compounded by underlying traumatic events, abuse, and lack of support. Many struggle with unhealthy coping mechanisms to help them manage their depression and anxiety. This often leads to neglecting individual needs, toxic relationships, and substance use. Understanding how these issues manifest in one's life and discovering how to heal and become the best version of oneself is a difficult process that is most effective with someone to serve as a guide.

I consider it an honor when clients choose to trust me and talk about themselves. You will learn about the role your beliefs, assumptions, and expectations play in influencing your feelings and behaviors.
