I was born and raised in Colorado. In my late 20's I moved to Florida and lived there for about 12 years. While I was in Florida I met my wife whom was from Colorado too. After we were married we decided to return to Colorado. I started counseling and working with people while I lived in Florida and continued after I moved to Colorado. I have been counseling and working with people for about 20 years. Over the past 20 years it has been a privilege to help people and to be a part of their lives for a short time and help them through struggles such as life changes, grief, anxiety, depression, addictions, trauma, and relationship issues. As I have worked with people with these struggles and many others I believe in treating everyone with respect compassion. I believe therapeutic rapport is one of the most important aspect of the therapeutic relationship. Therefore, In every session I will endeavor to create an atmosphere where you feel heard, safe, trust, and respect so you feel comfortable being open about what is troubling you. Each session will be tailored to you, your needs and goals, and the treatment plan you establish. Reaching out for help and talking to a therapist is never easy and requires a lot of courage. If you decided to reach out to me I am here to support you and help you achieve your goals and the life you want for yourself.

Hello! I am a therapist with a passion for helping people to make positive changes in their lives. Throughout my 17 year career I have worked with many different populations in a myriad of ways and have found that most people want to have a better life and just need that catalyst to make it possible. My style lends itself to be more on the coaching side and I often times have clients work on different small tasks outside of the therapy session. I would consider my counseling style to be warm, interactive, and goal oriented. Humor is a tool I use regularly to bring reality to difficult situations and to show that while life can be tumultuous, there should always be room to find laughter. I have extensive experience in mood disorders, teen issues, addictions, life changes, divorce, and family issues. I lend more towards messaging and live messaging therapy as I feel it gives the client more time to really think about what they want to say and to be able to better absorb the responses. You have taken the first and often times hardest step towards improving your future! I hope to hear from you soon and I look forward to working towards a more fulfilled life.

Many of the clients I work with come to therapy carrying challenges that are rooted in relationships—past or present. While trauma can occur in many ways, it most often develops within the context of our connections with others. My ideal clients are those who sense that their life isn’t where they want it to be, even if they can’t yet identify the “how” or “why.” The beliefs they’ve developed about their experiences can lead to distorted views of themselves and their worth, making it difficult to form the deep, meaningful relationships they desire. In our work together, my first goal is to build the trust and rapport needed for a genuine therapeutic relationship. From there, I’ll help you identify what needs to change and support you in taking the steps necessary to create that change—while also holding you accountable in a compassionate, encouraging way. Many people are used to mistaking criticism for motivation, especially from themselves, but that pattern can shift. I truly love what I do, and I strive to create a therapeutic space where you can feel grounded, safe, and fully yourself. Together, we’ll address the work ahead in a way that feels both manageable and empowering. If you’re ready to begin your path toward healing, I’m ready to walk that journey with you. I look forward to meeting you and getting started.
