As a relationship and marital therapist, my goal is to help you and your partner to rediscover the friendship, connection and passion that initially brought you together as a couple. By applying a set of simple, yet powerful communication techniques and issue resolution strategies, and helping you to design an individualized "relationship plan", we will work together to co-create the relationship of your dreams (a really awesome dream, not a nightmare). Successful couples counseling and marriage therapy significantly improves the communication and thus the emotional connection that you and your partner will feel towards each other. This closer emotional connection then positively impacts all other aspects of your functioning as a couple resulting in a more fulfilling and satisfying relationship for both you and your partner.

Addressing the mental, emotional, physical and spiritual aspects of a person are essential to integral healing. Depending on what is most helpful, either a brief solution focused or a more in depth approach can be taken. In addition to the more traditional 'talk' therapy, I use EMDR, Brainspotting, Sand Tray and Energy Work to address such experiences as trauma, emotional pain, and feelings of being stuck. Fourteen years of nursing, helps me to address physcial and medical concerns as well. Areas of strength include depression, bipolar, life transitions, identity work, anxiety, trauma and spirituality. My background work is in the Christian tradition, but I work well with most spiritual practices. I see adolescents and adults primarily and occasionally work with couples.

Arvada-based psychotherapist

I work with people in the natural processes of transition and trauma healing as a relational Art therapist. With support, people explore their unique inner landscapes through art therapy: tracking the weather and nurturing the foundation with color and form. I work with people who feel deeply, and those seeking support with voice, grief, mood, and identity. I offer a brave space for LGBT and other marginalized people, and I commit to discussions of privilege.

Art therapy is the blend of creative process and therapeutic support as exploration, growth, and healing for people of all abilities. I use a variety of art materials, your interests, and years of theoretical research. I also draw from Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, Sand-tray, and Play Therapy.

My approach to counseling is strength-based, humanistic, relational, and mind/body-centered. I focus on working with the nervous system to strive for emotional regulation. Through my own personal practice and teaching, my curiosity around the healing powers of the mind-body connection grew. My first hand awareness of the mind-body connection as a therapeutic tool led me to find Somatic Counseling --- a form of psychotherapy that values this powerful connection. When working with couples, I work with a co-facilitator, Dylan Leigh, MA, LPCC. We rely heavily on attachment theory and Psychobiological Approach to Couples Therapy (PACT). We see the couple in tandem during session. This co-therapy model is effective and removes common hinderances to couples therapy such as triangulation.

My professional lens is rooted in modern neuroscience, specifically trauma-informed attachment, IPNB, and somatic therapy. From this perspective, I utilize an integrated approach to achieve healing which includes psychoeducation, nature-based/wilderness therapy, EMDR, mindfulness, somatic, gestalt, psychodrama, and psychodynamic interventions. I partner with individuals and couples who want to work through relationship issues, trauma (child or adult onset), grief, anxiety, and/or depression.

Navigating our lives can be incredibly challenging and sometimes we just need some support while we’re figuring it out. We actually all deserve that support, whether we believe it or not. When we have a history of trauma things like relationships become confusing and hard to understand. They may even feel unsafe. And when we don’t have a strong connection with ourselves, connecting with others can feel overwhelming. We might lose ourselves in someone else, or we might experience the push and pull of wanting to be close, but not knowing how.

Together we can map out a plan for you to begin to better understand what you need in your life. I know firsthand that there is freedom and wholeness on the other side of deep personal work and examination of relationships.

I specialize in working with active-duty military, veterans, first responders and their families. I also work with those who wish to find meaning, recovery and integration after trauma.

I have a passion for working with people and know that there are times in everyone's life that can be too difficult to see past, but there is always hope for tomorrow. It is an honor to join you on your journey and I look forward to working with you.
