Motivational Interviewing Therapists in Colorado

I support children, adolescents, adults, couples, and families who are navigating emotional, relational, identity, and life-transition challenges. My work focuses on helping clients better understand themselves, build practical coping skills, strengthen communication, and create meaningful change in their daily lives. I specialize in concerns such as anxiety, depression, trauma, emotional dysregulation, bipolar disorder, personality disorders, gender and sexuality exploration, and family or relationship challenges. My approach is warm, collaborative, and grounded in evidence-based therapies including DBT, ACT, Exposure Therapy, trauma-informed care, Gottman Couples Therapy, and mindfulness-based practices. As a certified yoga teacher with training in Yin Yoga, Yoga Nidra, and meditation, I also bring a mind-body perspective to therapy when helpful. Whether clients are seeking individual therapy, couples or family support, DBT skills, trauma recovery, or career guidance, my goal is to provide a supportive space where they can feel understood, empowered, and better equipped to move forward.

I enjoy working from a holistic yet evidence-based approach.  I show up authentically for each patient, and I value transparency and provide my full presence. Patients who work with me can expect to explore feelings, beliefs, and behaviors, understand memories, process destructive relationships, and identify dysfunction, which will lead to a better understanding of themselves and others. During therapy, there is an ongoing effort to develop effective coping skills, decrease emotional distress, improve functioning, and resolve symptoms and problems. Each therapy session is a balance of meeting your present needs and long-term goals. Collaboratively, we will deepen your understanding of yourself your reactions to various emotions and, increase your psychological flexibility and create new perspectives.  My Wishes for You I wish you a life full of love, happiness, fulfillment and health.

Hello and bienvenue! I work with a diverse clientele and specialize in providing social justice oriented psychotherapy to people of color, as well as members of LGBTQIA+ communities. I provide culturally responsive therapy, which focuses on the strengths that you already have. I tend to use an Interpersonal Process theoretical approach (IPT) as well as a cognitive-behavioral theoretical approach (CBT) while also paying attention to your environment and access to social support. I work with you to build a safe space where you can share your experiences without the fear of being judged, and where you can focus on becoming clear about what you want, and how you want to go about making that happen. I believe that it is important to build a strong therapeutic relationship, as well as paying close attention to what is happening for you in-the-moment. I find it helpful to work to understand the different values and beliefs that we bring into the room, and how these worldviews might affect our interactions with each other. Understanding how your thoughts are related to your behaviors can empower and help you to actively account for your reality. You can use this insight to make the changes that will be necessary to live life more healthily.
