Are you ready to embrace life? Not just get by, but to FLOURISH personally and in relationship? Life has a way of getting the better of us and over time chipping away at our deepest dreams and best intentions. It's no wonder we sometimes feel lost or trapped with no idea how to reach out or turn things around. You CAN have transformation in your life and relationships! This work is of the deepest nature. You will learn to honor yourself and live with authenticity, integrity, and intention. When you do this, all other aspects of your life start to align and come into balance.

At People Not Problems, we provide compassionate, effective therapy for individuals and couples, helping you navigate life’s challenges with empathy and expertise. Our practice emphasizes deep, lasting change through experiential and language-based approaches that foster emotional connection and trust. Whether you're seeking help with relational dynamics, grappling with commitment issues, or facing suicidality, we are here to support you. With a systemic focus that avoids quick fixes, we strive to empower you to find clarity, connection, and authentic transformation. Located in South Boulder, we welcome clients ready for meaningful and lasting change.

I am dedicated to working with people who want to get at the roots of their emotional distress and personal suffering. Building a collaborative relationship in therapy is the single most important factor in therapeutic success. This relationship will be the keystone for facilitating your personal growth and understanding of yourself not just intellectually, but also emotionally. Over time, an internalized healing space forms where you can recover access to parts of your true self. Speaking freely without unnecessary self-censorship may be simple, but it is not easy. I encourage you to try.

Through experiencing the freedom of talking in an atmosphere of radical acceptance, we liberate powerful emotional states that help to make deep and lasting changes. When fully understood, painful psychological symptoms dissolve over time.

My passion lies in doing depth psychotherapy, which involves making unconscious processes conscious and facilitating others in developing insight into their emotions and behaviors. I also particularly enjoy working with eating disorders and body image, food related, or compulsive exercise issues. However, I am happy to work with most difficulties people struggle with in their daily lives.

I work with individuals, couples and families, with special interest/expertise in supporting step-families. I'm also fascinated by the intersection between spiritual and emotional wellness. While I work with clients who don't identify as either "spiritual" or "religious," I'm also open to exploring those connections with clients when they find it useful.

Therapy tends to be short-term, focused on goals we agree upon together and revisit often.

A free 30-minute consultation can be arranged, to make sure there's a good fit. You can find "testimonials" on my website, describing a warm, engaging style combined with valuable skills. I offer a sliding fee scale as needed.

My office offers abundant, free and convenient parking with easy access from Longmont, Louisville and other areas of east Boulder County, in addition to Boulder

I combine the science of Western psychology with the wisdom of Eastern and Western spiritual traditions (for details see the website).

I consider my clients as being whole. You are not broken, you are facing a temporary challenge, there is a solution, and I'll help you find it.

If you are experiencing a challenging time with anxiety, depression, grief, PTSD/trauma, conflicts in relationships, existential anxiety or you are feeling stuck in your spiritual work, there is something that is disrupting your sense of wholeness and balance that needs to be addressed.

In my work with you, I'll bring a warm human connection, a compassionate heart, and presence as a guide and companion, and a deep commitment to mindfulness.

Specialties: depression, anxiety, grief, PTSD, anger management, relationship conflicts, men's issues, and spirituality

I am in private practice and have an office in LoHi. My specialities include seeing couples (using the PACT model created by Stan Tatkin), individuals who struggle with eating disorders, and "highly sensitive persons".

A somatic psychotherapist and registered dance/movement therapist, I am passionate about nurturing change through collaboration with my clients. I believe meaningful and enduring change comes about through a combination of authentic relationship, accessing and respecting the unconscious, courage, new experiences, and practice.

I blend subtle somatic techniques, dance/movement therapy, dreamwork, and close attention to words and stories to facilitate clients’ access to the potent keys of transformation that lie within.

My areas of particular interest and specialization include working with the somatic impacts of oppression, trauma, body image, anxiety, depression, chronic illness, and self-actualization.

I also work with child clients through play therapy and dance/movement therapy.

In addition to working with a range of adult, adolescent and child clients, I specialize in guiding parents of children challenged by chronic illness, medical trauma or developmental issues toward the outcome of post-traumatic growth rather than post-traumatic stress. My research, presented at three conferences of the American Psychological Association, the International Society for Traumatic Stress Studies and others, helps to show that parents who take care of themselves create better social and health outcomes for their challenged children. I am licensed psychologist candidate, editor of the APA Div 39 monthly publication, and editor of the APA Div 39 blog at PsychologyToday.com. EMDR Certified. Former teacher. Former Outward Bound guide. Frequent school consultant.
