I believe my goal as a therapist is to provide a safe and accepting environment to individuals in order to find their inner strength. Life can be very scary and challenging at times and it is my passion to help others overcome these challenges and reach their dreams and goals.
My theoretical approach is unique to each individual in order to promote growth and develop their very own personal identity.
I graduated from the University of Northern Colorado with my Bachelor of Science in 2005. After one year of working on my Certified Addictions License I began my journey through graduate school. I graduated with my Master's degree in Mental Health Counseling in 2009. Since that time I have received an endorsement in Gambling Addictions from Denver University and became certified in Personality Disorder Treatment.
