As a licensed therapist in Arizona/Colorado, I bring over two decades of experience supporting individuals through complex life challenges. My practice centers on understanding and honoring diverse experiences, with specialized expertise in addressing depression, anxiety, relationship dynamics, and addiction. My professional approach is deeply rooted in multicultural sensitivity, with a commitment to supporting individuals navigating prejudice, discrimination, and unique relationship structures. I have extensive experience working with first responders, immigrant communities, and individuals facing significant life transitions, including end-of-life counseling. I am bilingual in English and Spanish, which allows me to provide culturally responsive care that meets each client's unique communication needs. My therapeutic style emphasizes compassion, understanding, and collaborative healing, creating a supportive environment where individuals can explore their experiences and develop meaningful strategies for personal growth. My goal is to walk alongside you, offering professional guidance while respecting your individual journey and inherent strengths. Together, we can work towards understanding, healing, and empowerment.

The issues I work with in therapy are mind-body issues. I do not have a mental illness approach. What is good for the body is good for the brain and vice versa. My openness and inclusivity influence my approach to therapy. I do not judge. I accept. I am more interested in your uniqueness than your diagnosis and I expect a full recovery in treatment. I fit well with expectations from a person who is here on their own volition, is willing and open to change, and is trying to develop resiliency in life, problem-solving without drama in relationships, and self-respect. I try my best to provide a secure space and collaborate. I take notes and I read them at the end of the session. As opposed to homework, I offer experiments to try between conversations. Depending on preference, I can be direct in helping people identify their goals by collaborating on a treatment plan. I can also be non-direct and identify our goals through the flow of the conversation. A first session with me begins with a casual greeting and formalities regarding confidentiality, rights, and risk assessment questions, followed by a lead-in question to get the ball rolling.

I am a licensed mental health clinician based in Southern Colorado with over seven years of professional experience. I support clients navigating stress and anxiety, trauma and abuse, depression, career challenges, grief, and identity exploration. My approach is collaborative and grounded in evidence-based modalities, including CBT, DBT skills, and solution-focused strategies. I strive to create a safe, nonjudgmental space where you can share your thoughts and feelings openly and explore what matters most to you. I currently offer live messaging appointments paired with asynchronous messaging support. This format can help reduce common barriers to treatment by increasing flexibility, allowing clients to engage in therapy in real time while also having space to reflect and respond at their own pace between sessions. It can support continuity of care during busy schedules, reduce missed appointments due to time constraints, and make it easier to access support during moments when scheduled sessions may not be feasible. It also allows clients time to process thoughts more fully, which can be especially helpful for those who benefit from reflection before responding. For individuals who experience anxiety about traditional talk therapy, live messaging sessions can feel less intimidating and more structured. Many clients find it easier to express themselves in writing rather than speaking in real time, which can reduce performance pressure, help slow down overwhelming emotions, and allow for more thoughtful communication. The written format can also provide a sense of emotional safety and distance that makes it easier to begin discussing difficult topics, especially early in the therapeutic process. I believe that every person’s story is unique, and I work with clients to build self-awareness, resilience, and practical tools for managing life’s challenges. Therapy is a journey, and I am here to support and empower you every step of the way. My sessions are available in the evenings on weekdays and weekends to help make therapy more accessible for busy lifestyles.

When imagining my ideal client, I see individuals from diverse backgrounds—LGBTQ+ youth navigating identity and acceptance, juveniles facing emotional and behavioral challenges during critical developmental years, adults striving for personal growth or healing from past trauma, and men working to overcome stigma around mental health and express vulnerability. Each client brings a unique set of needs: the need to be heard without judgment, to feel safe in their identity, to rebuild trust, and to move toward a more empowered and authentic self. My approach is grounded in existential-phenomenological psychology, which means I focus on understanding each person’s unique lived experience—how they make meaning, face uncertainty, and navigate questions of identity, purpose, and connection. Alongside this foundation, I integrate evidence-based practices like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy. I tailor my approach to meet the needs of each client—whether that’s a teen struggling with identity, an adult working through anxiety or life transitions, someone processing trauma, or a man learning to express emotion in a safe and healthy way.
