Helping children, teens and adults understand divorce, low self-esteem, bullying, adoption, grief, gender issues and LGBT. Serving the Longmont area for over 8 years. If you or someone in your family needs help, give me a call.

Fulfillment looks different for everyone, which is why I take a holistic approach to counseling. My core training is in somatics, and I'm certified in Sensorimotor Psychotherapy. I also draw on my background in philosophy, somatic bodywork, psychosis treatment, supporting high achievers and gifted individuals, as well as yoga and movement practices. I specialize in complex trauma with co-occurring mind/body symptoms, difficult relationships, giftedness, and unusual experiences that are hard to put into words. In addition to my clinical work, I organize trainings for the Sensorimotor Psychotherapy Institute and teach in the MBTC program at Naropa University. I work to understand my clients deeply, challenge them with compassion, and help build the kind of autonomy and confidence that supports clear, self-directed decision-making.

With over 22 years of experience, my work is to help facilitate a greater alignment and expression of your distinct, authentic nature and thus help you to imbue your life with enriched meaning and fulfillment. Our work together will reawaken and draw upon your intrinsic wholeness, and you will recover healing and growth in life’s wounds, sorrows, and setbacks.

You will learn to identify, understand, and disempower self-defeating thought patterns and outdated behaviors, and you will replace limiting perspectives with the genuine awareness of wide open options, possibilities, and resources. As your connection with yourself and your insight deepen, you will give rise to fresh opportunities and directions. A singular array of beautiful and radiant qualities is your birthright; together we will cultivate the unique beauty that is yours.

One of the most frequent and favorite of the compliments I receive from clients I serve is, "You make me feel normal when I am talking about my 'stuff'." My goal in working with clients is to provide a safe place to explore their 'stuff' and help them learn more adaptive ways of navigating life's ups and downs. I do this by utilizing Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Eye Movement and Desesitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) Therapy, Mindfulness and Relaxation Training, and most importantly, HUMOR. I turn frowns upside down while helping clients move through their anger, anxiety, depression, trauma, and difficult relationships and transitions to a place where they enjoy life and the excitement each day can bring.
