For anxiety, burnout, trauma, chronic illness, and identity-related stress

Who I work with

You are likely the person everyone else relies on: the one who holds it all together at work, at home, and in your community. You're capable, responsible, and thoughtful, and also exhausted, anxious, or stuck in old patterns, privately navigating an internal cost that is becoming too heavy to carry. I provide online individual therapy for adults across Colorado who are ready to trade the exhausting cycle of perfectionism and self-criticism for a steadier, more authentic way of living. 

An integrative, whole-person approach

In individual therapy, I offer a steady, compassionate space to sort through the pressure, perfectionism, self-criticism, and emotional weight you’ve been carrying. I believe that meaningful change requires looking at the whole person, not just their thoughts. My work is grounded in Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), which means we focus on helping you understand your internal world with more clarity and compassion, reconnect with what matters most to you, and take steps toward a life that feels more aligned with your values and less driven by fear or self-doubt. 

I incorporate somatic (body-based) interventions to help you understand how your nervous system responds to stress. We work to shift the "fight, flight, or freeze" patterns that talk therapy alone sometimes can't reach. I also consider how your physiological foundations including sleep, movement, and stress cycles impact your emotional health. We explore how these factors influence your capacity to manage anxiety and burnout.

Trauma-informed care

If you are navigating the impact of past or present trauma, I provide specialized support through EMDR and Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT). Whether your trauma stems from a single event or experiences that accumulated over time, we’ll decide together which approach is the best fit to support your healing.

Chronic health support

With extensive experience as a Certified Diabetes Care and Education Specialist (CDCES), I offer informed care for those living with type 1 diabetes, HIV, and other chronic conditions. We address the unique emotional fatigue of constant health management, honoring the complex intersection of your physical and mental well-being. 

Affirming and inclusive therapy

I work with many LGBTQ+ clients, and creating an affirming, safe, and deeply respectful space is one of my core priorities. You deserve a therapist who honors your identity, understands the impact of minority stress and lived experience, and helps you navigate life’s challenges without judgment or assumptions.

Above all, therapy with me is collaborative, steady, and oriented toward meaningful change. You don’t have to keep doing this alone.

When relationships feel stuck, strained, or distant

Rethinking the Patterns

Relationships can feel deeply painful when they’re no longer the source of safety or connection you want them to be. You may be trying to recover after a breach of trust, caught in conflict that feels circular or exhausting, or feeling increasingly distant from one another without knowing how to reconnect. I provide online couples therapy for relationships across Colorado experiencing disconnection, conflict, or patterns that feel hard to change on your own. Rather than just teaching communication tips, we slow things down to make sense of the needs and fears happening beneath the surface.

Emotional Safety & Meaningful Repair

My approach focuses on attachment and emotional responsiveness. We focus on identifying the patterns that keep pulling you into disconnection, then work to build a foundation of safety where repair is actually possible. By understanding how you and your partner relate during moments of stress, we can create more intentional, secure ways of connecting that feel sustainable for the long term.

Affirming relationship care

I offer an affirming, knowledgeable space for LGBTQ+ relationships of all kinds. I work with queer couples and relationships across a wide range of structures, including poly relationships and those practicing consensual nonmonogamy. You deserve support from a therapist who understands the nuances of identity, community, and relationship dynamics without requiring education along the way.

Whether you’re hoping to repair trust, navigate conflict more effectively, deepen emotional closeness, or reconnect after a period of distance, couples and relationship therapy offers a structured, supportive path forward. My goal is to help you feel seen, understood, and more hopeful about what’s possible for your relationship.
