I am a licensed professional counselor with a Master's in Counseling Psychology from Lesley University. I've been Licensed in Colorado since 2004 and have worked at community mental health centers, hospitals and in private practice. I have done additional training in the areas of EMDR, sex therapy, Jungian therapy, IFS and transpersonal therapy.
I work with adults who want to get back in touch with what is most important to them to feel more connected to themselves and others. I can share techniques to manage anxiety, overcome past & present challenges, connect more authentically with others, and identify skills that will help you succeed in school, work and life. If you are struggling with trauma, grief, depression/anxiety or other mental/emotional stress, we will work together to find the tools that best support your well-being.
I work with young women, millennials, teen girls, and young couples. I can support you to help build boundaries, work on relationships, learn coping skills to deal with anxiety & stress, talk through life changes & challenges, big decisions, small decisions, or anything else. I focus on family dynamics, generational patterns, and helping you choose the best steps to take moving forward.
You might look like you're holding it all together on the outside, but inside feel overwhelmed, stuck, or disconnected. Maybe you're overthinking, struggling in relationships, or navigating a life transition that feels harder than expected.
I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with experience in both outpatient therapy and hospital-based crisis work, including emergency department settings. I work with adults navigating anxiety, relationship stress, and life transitions, especially those who are used to being the “strong one” for others but are ready for space to slow down and feel supported.
My background includes working with a wide range of emotional and relational concerns, and I aim to create a space where you can step out of your day-to-day roles and focus on yourself in a way that feels grounded, supportive, and meaningful.
I’m a licensed therapist with over 15 years of experience in private and community practice. I hold a PhD in psychology and master’s degrees in both marriage and family therapy and clinical psychopharmacology. I work at the intersection of psychology, natural medicine, and meaningful personal change to support clients suffering form individual and relational distress resulting from treatment-resistant depression, anxiety, and trauma. I’m especially interested in the responsible integration of natural and psychedelic medicines, without hype or dogma. Outside the office, I’m a veteran, husband, and father of four, and I value curiosity, accountability, and connection.
My work is a gentle invitation to the weary soul. I offer a safe space for you to come home to yourself, guided by my own deep-seated belief in the power of peace. Outside of my practice, I find my own peace in the quiet moments of my day—baking a loaf of bread, walking on the beach, or simply listening to the gentle sound of the ocean.
My training includes an MA in Counseling from Naropa University where I specialized in Mindfulness-Based Transpersonal Counseling and continuing education in Narrative therapy, Internal Family Systems, and Psychedelic Medicine. I am an EMDR-trained therapist.

I am a double board-certified Psychiatric–Mental Health Nurse Practitioner with over 20 years of experience across the continuum of psychiatric care, including acute psychiatric emergencies, inpatient and outpatient psychiatry, geriatric mental health, intellectual and developmental disability services, and healthcare management. I hold a Master of Science in Nursing (MSN) and am currently completing my Doctorate, reflecting my ongoing commitment to clinical excellence, evidence-based practice, and lifelong learning.
Throughout my career, I have worked with individuals and families navigating a wide range of psychiatric conditions, from situational anxiety and depression to severe and persistent mental illness. My clinical experience includes extensive work with schizophrenia and psychotic disorders, bipolar disorder, major depressive disorder, generalized anxiety disorder, panic disorder, obsessive–compulsive disorder (OCD), trauma-related conditions, and mood instability across the lifespan. I am particularly experienced in caring for geriatric patients, individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities, and patients with complex medication regimens requiring careful evaluation, simplification, and long-term stabilization.
I also work closely with college-aged patients and adults who are navigating academic pressure, career transitions, family dynamics, identity development, and the cumulative stressors that can emerge during periods of high responsibility or change. Many of my patients are high-functioning individuals who appear “put together” on the outside but struggle internally with anxiety, rumination, intrusive thoughts, emotional dysregulation, or burnout. Others are managing chronic psychiatric illness while striving to maintain independence, relationships, and quality of life.
As a Psychiatric-Mental Health Nurse Practitioner since 2023 and a psychiatric nurse since 2018, I specialize in Complex trauma, LGBTQIA+ issues and co-occurring conditions. My approach is compassionate, client-centered, and trauma-informed, focusing on the areas that you would like to work on. All medication or therapy is tailored to your needs and avoiding the "try and see" method of treatment.
Life presents us with many challenges, and sometimes we may feel like we're moving backward instead of forward. It's at these moments that we define our next steps. Whether you're navigating parenting, processing trauma, or grappling with difficult questions, a holistic approach can support you internally and externally, nurturing your mind, body, and spirit. Remember, well-being is true wealth, and I encourage anyone seeking therapy to be motivated and ready to actively participate in their healing.
