About me
As a mental health counselor, my commitments are to help the person better themselves through increasing their self-esteem, and advocacy. Together we will create a safe and trusting working relationship in a therapeutic environment where you feel comfortable to work. I began my career as a counselor through corrections. At 18 I worked as an advocate with the mentally ill with the police department, both to bring awareness to mental illness and to work with the police regarding their approach to people with mental illness. I was drawn to the crisis and challenge of a multitude of experiences.
I focus on supporting the individual through the goals that they have in mind and encouraging them along the way. The therapy sessions are ever evolving and change based on the needs of the individual. The therapeutic environment is free from judgment, and I strive to provide a safe environment to address trauma and current concerns. I primarily provide Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, and Strength Based. I specialize in working in individuals who have past trauma, foster or adopted children and adults, legal history mixed with mental illness, and mood disorders. I enjoy working with clients on building their self-esteem while decreasing their anxiety, learning coping skills, and relationship skills.
I received my Masters in Social Work from the University of Denver in 2008. This year I will be completing my Doctorate with an emphasis in Human Services. Also, I have my Masters in Criminal Justice from the University of Colorado. I completed my undergraduate from Mount Mercy in Cedar Rapids Iowa with a Bachelor of Science with majors in Criminal Justice and Social Work with a minor in Pre-Law. I am a LCSW in Colorado and Wyoming.
I have a farm full of rescued animals from horses, donkeys, goats, pigs, cats, turtle, chickens, ducks, and dogs. I have a supportive partner and 3 adopted kids who are 18, 11, and 9.

Sheena has helped guide me through building my confidence while dealing with trauma and grief as so many of us are. She has been a compassionate and kind listener and offers advice only when needed and encouragement always.
I have been in different forms of therapy before that May have helped but also broke me down to a point where I couldn’t function normally. I’m sure she can provide “though love” when needed, but I am already far too critical of myself so I need a gentler approach.
Whether you are dealing with chronic clinical conditions like myself or are just going through a particularly tough time I would recommend Sheena. Rather than push me she has offered advice and insight to motivate myself in a healthy way both personally and professionally.
When I am full of grief and do not want to burden my friends and family or cannot get what I need from them, she is there. When I want to focus on other things outside of counseling, she gives me that space.
Thank you for all that you do!
