Licensed psychologist specializing in anxiety, overwhelm, and executive functioning challenges in high-functioning adults. I work with individuals who are driven and capable but feel stuck, scattered, or unable to follow through in the ways they want.

My approach is structured and practical, integrating CBT, ACT, and DBT to improve focus, reduce anxiety, and build sustainable systems for daily life. I have a particular interest in adult ADHD and helping clients strengthen organization, motivation, and emotional regulation.

Therapy is collaborative and goal-oriented, focused on helping you function more effectively while also feeling more grounded and in control.

Clients often know the changes they want to make on a cognitive level but sometimes that isn't enough. Engaging the body during the therapy process can help things move and get unstuck.

I support clients using an integrative somatic (body-centered) approach which often incorporates healthy relationship boundaries, mindfulness, self-regulation and other tools. Somatic psychotherapy is simple, powerful work that can help you connect with your inner strength and wisdom.

I offer individual counseling sessions for adults, adolescents and older children (tweens) in Boulder, CO. Supporting clients with presence, compassion and authenticity, I empower clients to discover and develop their own innate strengths and abilities to create a life they love.

Are you ready to get unstuck? Let's begin together.

Are you afraid of being abandoned? Do you try to avoid being alone? Do you have unstable and intense relationships? Are you often confused about who you are as a person? Do you often feel bored, empty, or in deep emotional pain? Do your emotions and moods change frequently? Don’t hesitate to call for help. I have over 20 years of experience as a psychotherapist and specialize in personality issues. I will work with you to tailor a therapy style that is comprehensive and sensitive to your needs. Throughout my professional practice I have worked successfully with people who have experienced problems such as depression, anxiety, fears, emotional pain, posttraumatic and personality disorders, relationships difficulties and low self-esteem. I will help you gain self-confidence, become more successful in your life, and experience more satisfying relationships. I work with individuals of all ages, race, gender, ethnicity, and sexual orientation.

I will work with you to understand the meanings and motives of your behavior, and to strengthen your capacity to endure frustration, anger and loneliness without acting impulsively upon those feelings.
