Overcoming life’s challenges can be difficult without the right tools. I provide those tools, along with empathy, active listening, and thoughtful reflection. In addition to my social work education, my professional experience and personal insights enhance the awareness, intuition, and expertise I bring to support my clients. I understand how addiction can take control and the strength required to overcome it and maintain sobriety. I have extensive experience working with clients facing challenges such as drug and alcohol addiction, coping with the fear of death, grieving the loss of loved ones, healing from sexual abuse, navigating domestic violence, managing anger, and resolving relationship issues. Some of my other specialties include improving low self-esteem, managing stress, anxiety, depression, grief and Loss, coping with divorce, and infidelity, and the power of forgiveness.

I use this expertise to support you in your journey to recovery.

One of my greatest pleasures of being a counselor is the honor of witnessing and helping a client along their personal journey to a life worth living. I assist my clients, which include adolescents and adults, to find healthy perceptions of themselves, identify skills, and strengthen their relationships to find peace, hope, and joy. There is no single approach for every client, and I have been trained in a range of modalities including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, and client centered techniques. I have a Master’s degree in Counseling from the University of Mississippi. I have a B.A. in Psychology from The University of Memphis.

Hi, and thank you for checking out my profile! I am the Director of Western Slope Psychological Services in Colorado, and I am the host and creator of the Peace, Love, & Psychology podcast (https://www.buzzsprout.com/2223218). I have worked as a Clinical Psychologist in several different settings with a wide variety of clients. I have worked for a community college district, where I saw students for therapy, trained interns to work with students, and administered programs for Veterans, Disabled Students and LGBT Students. I have worked in mental health clinics and in clinics for patients with chronic pain and illness. I have specialized in working with people who have been exposed to traumatic experiences. Throughout my career, I have worked with people who may never have been in therapy before, and so I excel at explaining psychological concepts in ways people can understand and apply in their own lives. My approach therapeutically is client-centered, so I deeply respect the autonomy and dignity of my patients. I strive to provide a space that is accepting, non-judgmental and solution-oriented. I am trained in and tend to use evidence-based interventions that are cognitive-behavioral, cognitive, or mindfulness oriented.

My ultimate goal for you is for you to learn how to better manage the challenges in your life and to feel empowered to live the life you truly want for yourself.
