Hello—I’m so glad you’re here.
I love the work that I do. Many years ago, I was sitting in a therapist’s office in the client seat myself, beginning my own healing journey. Since then there have been winding roads, detours, difficult seasons, and meaningful shifts that have deeply shaped both my life and how I work as a therapist today.
My own experiences in therapy continue to inform my approach. The work I invite clients into is work I have likely practiced myself in one way or another. I understand how vulnerable it can feel to begin therapy, to trust someone new, and to slowly let yourself be seen.
A large part of my own healing came from learning how to feel safer within myself — building self-trust, self-compassion, and a greater sense of home internally. As corny as that may sound sometimes, I mean it fully when I say that this process changed my life.
My Approach to Therapy
I offer a gentle, relational, and trauma-informed approach to psychotherapy that includes:
clear boundaries
honest feedback
nervous system awareness
consistent attunement
curiosity over judgment
I work with adults navigating anxiety, grief, shame, perfectionism, relationship struggles, overwhelm, life transitions, and trauma-related experiences.
My therapeutic style integrates mindfulness, somatic work, parts work, Gestalt therapy, and traditional talk therapy. I believe healing often happens through a combination of insight, emotional safety, embodied awareness, and supportive relationship.
I also believe therapy does not need to be performative or perfect. We can bring humor, honesty, uncertainty, contradiction, and humanity into the room together.
Community, Play & Being Human
When I’m not working, I’m often somewhere in the mountains. I’ve been a climber for many years and am currently enthralled with trail running.
I also love dancing in community, which sometimes includes ecstatic dance and occasionally popping into the local rave scene.
I’m a devoted fan of the Real Housewives franchise for any fellow Bravo lovers, and I have an orange tabby named Jeff who occasionally makes an appearance during virtual therapy sessions.
Education & Training
I earned my Master’s in Counseling from Naropa University and completed an 18-month internship at Medicine Horse, where I received training in Equine-Facilitated Therapy.
My work is grounded in ongoing learning, self-reflection, and a deep respect for the therapeutic relationship.
