Therapists for college students near University of Colorado Boulder

As a Licensed Professional Counselor, I specialize in anxiety, trauma, identity exploration, emotional overwhelm, and relationship challenges. With several years of experience, I work with adults navigating some of life's most complex terrain, helping you find your footing when anxiety feels unmanageable, when past experiences weigh heavily on the present, or when relationships and sense of self feel uncertain. Empathy and authentic connection are at the heart of how I work. If you're looking for a thoughtful, attuned partner in your care, I look forward to helping you feel more connected, balanced, and at ease. My approach is gentle, grounding, and collaborative. Sessions are designed to be a safe, restorative space where you can slow down, tune into your nervous system, and begin creating meaningful, lasting change. Using relaxation techniques and nervous system-focused strategies, I help you reconnect with yourself and build a sense of balance that carries beyond our time together. Every person's needs and goals are different, and I tailor my approach accordingly. Whatever you're working through, you can expect a space that is supportive, unhurried, and shaped around you. A natural empathy for others and a deep desire to support people through life's challenges first drew me to this work. That pull became a purpose, and over time it shaped my commitment to providing warm, supportive, and empowering care. Authenticity and compassion guide every session. Whether you're working to restore a sense of well-being, process difficult experiences, or simply find more meaning in your daily life, I'm here to walk that path with you. Outside of sessions, you'll likely find me on a yoga mat, out on a trail, or setting up camp somewhere with my dog by my side. These practices of mindfulness, movement, and time in nature are part of how I stay grounded, and they deepen my appreciation for the quiet power of simply slowing down.

You might feel stuck in patterns that are hard to shift, in how you relate to yourself, communicate with others, or navigate relationships. On the outside, it may seem like you have it together, but inside there’s self-doubt or disconnection. I resonate with clients who are curious about their inner world and ready to understand the “why” beneath old habits. Together, we build self-trust, deepen connection, and create space for clarity, care, and ease, within yourself and in your relationships. I offer a warm, presence-centered approach that honors your lived experience. I support clients navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, addiction, life transitions, body image, self-esteem, and relationship issues. My work is rooted in mindfulness and self-compassion, always shaped by your unique needs and goals. Therapy is a brave space to come home to yourself. If you’re seeking relief, clarity, or a deeper sense of connection, I’d be honored to walk alongside you. I’m a counseling intern under clinical supervision and drawn to clients ready to show up more fully. There’s no perfect place to start, just a willingness to begin.

You might be feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or unsure how to move forward. Thoughts like “No one understands me” or “I can’t imagine life being any different” may feel all too familiar. Whether you’re navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, or simply going through the motions, I want you to know: you’re not alone, and you don’t have to carry this by yourself. I’m here to provide a supportive, non-judgmental space where you can be seen, heard, and understood. I believe that every person has the inner strength to create meaningful change, even if that feels out of reach right now. My role is to walk alongside you, working collaboratively to explore your experiences, build resilience, and help you reconnect with the life you want to live. My approach is person-centered and grounded in empathy, compassion, and respect for your unique journey. If you’re ready to take that first step, I’d be honored to support you. Send me a message, and let’s explore how we can begin this journey together.

“I am not good enough.” “My heart begins to race when things become too much for me.” “I am a burden to those around me.” “It feels like things are never going to get better.” I am here to support you. Life can be overwhelming, but you don’t have to navigate it alone. I believe everyone deserves a space where their experiences matter and their struggles are met with understanding. I strive to provide a safe and welcoming environment where individuals from all backgrounds can feel supported. Whether you’re grappling with anxiety, processing trauma, or simply unpacking the everyday struggles of life, I’m here to walk alongside you.

I understand how lonely and confusing it can be to navigate school, family expectations, pressures to perform, identity, and relationships.
