Therapists in Colorado

When people experience trauma, severe life stressors, or even experience change of any kind, it is not uncommon for their lives to unravel. My passion and greatest gift is bringing healing to people who have been through a traumatic/stressful experience. I help my clients, children, adults, and families, including the very young (ages 2-5), find healthy perceptions of themselves and strengthen their relationships so they can know themselves as restored, complete, whole, and safe.

I love my work as a psychotherapist. I feel humbled and honored to have had the opportunity to help many individuals and couples make the life changes they have desired in my career of 34 years. My clients have sought help from me for issues such as depression, anxiety, relationship problems, past trauma which is still affecting them, divorce, illness, death, etc. I use a variety of therapy techniques to help my clients achieve their goals and learn tools that they can continue to use after therapy is completed.
