Whether you are new to therapy or returning, finding someone who we feel understands and cares for us is hard. Each person has their own story and all of us have different reasons for seeking out help. I believe therapy is a safe place to share our stories, learn who we are, and develop effective skills to improve our lives. In therapy, I emphasize creating a nonjudgemental, empathetic, welcoming, and safe environment. I believe that patience and trust are essential for healing, and through the therapeutic relationship clients can explore their inner selves.  I am currently accepting new clients and like to get to know you better. Finding a therapist that is right for you is challenging, and I understand that it can take time. If you are interested and think we can work together, please reach out to me for a free consultation at (719) 966-7730 - texts or calls are encouraged.

I am a board-certified Psychiatric Mental health Nurse Practitioner. I treat clients across the lifespan and a sub-specialization in child and adolescents and addiction medicine. I make the experience a positive, supportive, and at times fun one. I am very clinical but I remove the "clinical feeling" from the experience. I am very client-focused and develop unique treatment plans that actually help them achieve their goals. I treat numerous areas of psychiatry including, ADHD, Depression, Anxiety, Bipolar, PTSD and Trauma, Family/Couples therapy, sleep and appetite, Schizophrenia, OCD, ODD, personality, and eating disorders and addiction. I use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Motivational Interviewing and supportive therapy. I learn about each individual client and learn my client's "story" so as to understand where they have been, where they are, and where they need/want to go. I also get to the "why" for each client, which is oftentimes the most important question. I utilize humor and my clients engage particularly well. My clients often say I should do standup psychiatry. My clients oftentimes ask me how I know them so well. I am famous for actively listening. My clients feel they receive my clinical expertise without feeling the clinical aspects of what one may expect in psychiatry. I am highly supportive and provide relevant health education. I utilize a team-based approach. I don't speak at my clients I speak with them. Anxiety in anticipation of the "first meeting" will be replaced by feeling more relaxed, comfortable, in a better mood, and more confident after the meeting than prior to it. They can also expect that their needs will be addressed and feel they have been "heard" by me. I am different than most in this regard as I treat my patients as I would a family member, and they can definitely feel it.

After our initial visit, we’ll collaborate to develop a tailored treatment plan, and in subsequent sessions, we’ll work together to implement it, supporting you every step of the way.

I’m trauma focused therapist with a deep commitment to learning, listening and teaching as much as I can about the way that our minds, bodies and hearts respond to stress. My philosophy is inspired by the fundamental belief that we’re all inherently primed to move towards what’s healthy and loving. Sometimes we get side tracked by habits that get started when we’re adapting to stressful work, society or family environments or to survive painful live events.  

My passion lies in supporting individuals as they navigate life’s challenges and discover pathways to healing. I incorporate evidence-based approaches such as cognitive-behavioral therapy, person-centered therapy, solution-focused therapy and mindfulness to foster growth and resilience. I am committed to providing a safe, non-judgmental space where clients can explore their emotions, build coping strategies, and work toward meaningful change. My experience consists of working with individuals facing mental health and substance use challenges—ranging from anxiety, depression, grief and trauma to the complex issues related to Alzheimer’s and dementia—I strive to offer empathy, patience, and guidance throughout the therapeutic journey.
