Therapists for college students near University of Colorado Boulder
Prior to private practice, I worked in college counseling for three years. My style as a therapist is to provide much warmth, curiosity, compassion, and humor to help each client engage in a productive way of understanding themselves and their mental functioning. I take a holistic approach that encompasses the mind and the body. Although I work with many presenting concerns, I have noticed a commonality of how people are self-critical and subsequently experience declines in their mental health and relationships. I work with each client to develop self-awareness and coping skills to help decrease their mental health distress.
Your struggles do not have to define who you are or determine the quality of your life. I am a licensed professional counselor and since 2003, I have helped individual adults address trauma, anxiety and depression. Through a tailor-made treatment plan, we break down the process into manageable steps. Together, we will tackle what is robbing you of contentment and vitality. I also help people explore their sexual orientation and gender identities. The goal is to help you find self-acceptance, resiliency, and an opportunity to celebrate sexual and gender diversity. I utilize approaches like EMDR, Gestalt Therapy, DBT, and mindfulness practices to deliver evidence-based, experiential treatment In time, the commitment and work we do will be an immeasurable gift that will have long reaching impacts you may not even know are possible.
Healing and growth takes place in the context of relationships - in our relationship with ourselves, and in our relationships with others. Unfortunately, our relationships can sometimes become distant, disconnected and a place of conflict, leaving us with unmet needs and just feeling “stuck.” We don’t feel safe asking for what we need, and maybe don’t even know what we need ourselves. The therapeutic relationship in counseling provides an authentic and safe place in which healing can begin to take place. My goal is to provide you with a space where you feel seen and heard; where you feel safe to explore your story and your experiences; a space where you can work through some of the hard things in a way that moves you towards a deeper sense of wholeness and connection. If you'd like to find out if this is a good place for you to address some of these things for yourself, reach out and we can schedule a free 15-minute consultation to see if it would be a good fit!

I am a Marriage and Family Therapist Candidate with experience supporting couples and individuals as they navigate the issues that matter most to them. My passion for this field began in the rural South, where I became fascinated by the relationships that sustain us and the ways we communicate with ourselves and each other, especially in the face of trauma. I believe that every person has the capacity for growth and change, and my role is to walk alongside you, offering support and tools that can help you move toward the life and relationships you want. In my practice, I specialize in working with couples from diverse relationship and family structures wanting to strengthen communication, deepen connection, and develop healthier ways to manage conflict. I am Gottman Level 2 certified, an approach to couples therapy that focuses on building strong, healthy relationships. I am also informed by the Psychobiological Approach to Couples Therapy (PACT) that draws from attachment theory and cognitive neuroscience to help couples move toward secure functioning as they learn to regulate emotion together. We will work together to create a strong foundation upon which a secure relationship can be built. I also specialize in working with individuals of all ages navigating LGBT issues such as gender identity, which is deeply linked to how we are perceived and show up in the world. My approach utilizes a trauma-informed lens to identify the impacts on everyday life and guide where the client would most like to explore. I am informed by the Neuroaffective Relational Model (NARM) that uses both somatic and psychodynamic techniques to identify survival patterns that are no longer useful to us and works on bringing the mind and body into alignment. I also incorporate Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT), which focuses on how we experience and express emotion, supporting healthier regulation and deeper self-understanding. We will work together to create a space to process and explore as you move toward personal growth. It is a privilege to work with my clients as they gain the courage to take steps toward personal growth and build meaningful relationships with themselves and others.
I work with individuals and families who are navigating life changes, anxiety, depression and overall life stressors. My goal is to create a warm, non-judgmental space where you can feel safe, heard, and valued. Therapy is a place where you do not have to perform, explain yourself perfectly, or have all the answers; we move at a pace that feels supportive and respectful. Clients often describe me as warm, gentle, and genuine. I use appropriate humor to ease tension, while also offering thoughtful reflection to gently interrupt patterns that may no longer be serving you. Therapy with me is collaborative and supportive, balancing emotional understanding with practical skill-building to encourage meaningful change. My hope is that through our work together, you will feel safer in yourself, more empowered, and more confident in your voice; carrying forward a deeper sense of resilience, self-worth, and the light you bring into the world.

Anxiety and depression are so prevalent these days. Coping with difficult transitions such as adjusting to college, being weighed down by existential/career pressures can feel so overwhelming. Romantic struggles are also stressful, including conflict with your beloved related to intimacy, infidelity, etc. Communication with your partner/family member can feel so frustrating at times.
