Teletherapy for Colorado

When working with clients, it is important for me to center the wisdom each individual, couple, and/or family bring to therapy. Starting from this place allows me to center and validate the experiences of my clients from an inclusive perspective. My goal is to balance trusting the client to make the best decisions for themselves and creating space for collaboration throughout the therapeutic process. My training as a social worker, marriage and family therapist, and educator provide me with the tools needed to guide clients through the therapy process. In my work, It is important to meet you where you are and let the tools follow!

It's okay not to know exactly what you want out of therapy. My job is to help you cultivate the ability to communicate with your inner being and essence to understand yourself more. Through this process your needs and goals will become apparent and we will create a plan for how to move forward. I'm not going to lie, Therapy is not easy - but it is fulfilling in so many ways. My clients are motivated for positive change and put the work in to reap the fruits of their labor. My clients want to change their lives for the better - I am here to help guide them along their path.

Creativity, aliveness, sexuality, passion and playfulness are all inherent experiences of being human. I am passionate about helping others live a life that feels alive and engaging. With a compassionate presence and non-judgmental perspective, I co-create an environment for clients to explore hard emotions and life experiences so that they can be more spacious, confident, strong and joyful. Connection through relationships, sex, intimacy and love are areas I specialize in. I am a multicultural and trauma informed counselor who speaks English, Spanish and Portuguese fluently. I also offer cannabis and ketamine-assisted therapy.

I serve the states of: Colorado, Montana, and Kansas. When struggling with anxiety or stress small tasks, feel like mountains. Activities that used to bring you joy have become similar to your list of chores. A strong support system is crucial, people that care about your well-being and want to see you reach your goals. Therapy can be a powerful addition to your life. It provides a safe space for conversations to flow, in turn promoting validation, skill-building, goal-realization, and emotional-processing. Therapy has the ability to open the door for countless interpersonal and intrapersonal growth opportunities.

My two primary client focus areas are individuals with substance use challenges and folks who's lives have been impacted by the addictive patterns of others.

A client-centered approach underscores my commitment to meaningful and impactful support, ensuring a tailored journey toward your goals

Overwhelmed by the stress of getting through daily life? You may have pushed things away for years and finally realize you can’t move forward without doing the work. Step into the room. It’s a quiet, safe, focused space where we’ll help you discover your true essence. You’ll learn that you’re not your behavior, that you’re not your trauma. We’ll help you separate what happened to that part of you back then, versus what happened to the essential you. We’ll help you develop the skills, strength, resilience, balance, and self-confidence you need to live the well-nourished life.

Therapy should captivate and transform you. When you are struggling to move past conflicts or getting stuck in all-too-familiar patterns, there should be something so direct, personal, and real about what you discover and practice in therapy that it should dramatically change how you think, feel, and act with others. That's my specialty. Yet, even though therapy is serious work, there should be room for play: for trying things on, for practice, for being human. As a family therapist I care about the quality of your relationships. My approach? Connecting. Pragmatic. Thorough. Creative.

Navigating life's changes can feel like walking through a fog—each decision can seem heavy and overwhelming. If you're battling anxiety, doubting your self-worth, or seeking a sense of calm amidst life’s pressures, you're not alone. You deserve support tailored to your unique needs and goals, whether you're untangling family dynamics, adjusting to life after college, or exploring your identity and purpose. Together, we’ll work to clear the fog, build resilience, and embrace your journey with confidence. Let’s connect and take the first step towards a more fulfilling life.

Philosophy Therapy is a revolutionary new way to improve. Since ancient times, the discipline of philosophy (practiced by the likes of Socrates, Hume, and Khayyam) has been used not just to advance science and politics, but also to heal the human soul. In Philosophy Therapy, we employ hard-earned conceptual distinctions made by philosophical geniuses over the millennia to solve our personal problems and get a better perspective on our own lives. I will walk you through your everyday concerns, mental health issues, and relationship problems, and help you ask and answer many perplexing questions that may be causing you suffering.

Psychotherapy is for everyone. You do not have to wait until your life falls apart to seek help. In fact, many of us will never experience a mental health crisis. But that doesn’t mean that we cannot benefit from therapy. Things are going well but you want to learn how to live your best life? Things aren’t going so great and you want to get back to where you were before Covid? Things went south and you really need some help? No matter where you are on this spectrum, therapy IS for you. Whether you are seeking Ketamine Assisted Psychotherapy or traditional talk therapy, I’m here and ready to help. Let’s get started. You deserve this.

Allow yourself to make time for you. Let’s start working on becoming a healthier you. Although we live busy lives, we can live a balanced and embodied life while creating meaning and peaceful spaces in our daily life. Even if nothing really “bad” is going on, it is ok to seek support in our lives that we feel we “should” have everything under control. You may be experiencing anxious feelings, lack of sleep, overwhelming or irrational emotional responses, or persistent tiredness when engaging in your daily routine, social activities, or viewing social media and news.

Motherhood is HARD. Motherhood is full of joy, but it is also filled with messes, stress, temper tantrums, chaos, lack of sleep, and so many more challenges. Ask yourself, when was the last time you did something nice for yourself, something JUST for you? When was the last time you felt confident in yourself, with a strong sense of who you are and what you desire? When was the last time you prioritized your well-being and health?

As a counselor, my goal is to partner with you on your journey and not to dictate a pre-designed cookie-cutter approach. My style is to collaborate with you in exploring your values, goals, and needs. Together we will work on understanding what makes you unique and the best ways for you to pursue health.

Life transitions and unresolved trauma can make us feel like we have become trapped in our own bodies and unable to escape constant worry, anxiety and guilt. Feeling stuck and unable to explore personal worries can affect our abilities to have healthy social interaction, parenting, and family relationships. Thankfully, there is hope and healing beyond trauma. If you are struggling with trauma, anxiety, depression, addiction, difficulties within relationships, or foster care or adoptive related issues, I can provide a safe, unbiased, and nonjudgmental environment where you can explore your concerns and move towards healing.

You are highly motivated and resilient but find yourself trapped in a cycle of overthinking, self-criticism, or placing the needs of others above your own. Unable to shake the feeling that something is inherently wrong with you or that certain parts of you are unacceptable, you try to numb and hide. Today, you find yourself unable to cope with even the small things. Waking up tired, anxious throughout the day, lying awake at night. Endless workaholism, incessantly consuming self-help content, even engaging in unhealthy but addictive behaviors and relationships. You are seeking healing that is personal, deep, and lasting.
