About My Clients

I have a strong desire to help those who have struggled the most. I am an anti-racist, LGBTQ+ affirming, military friendly, equal opportunity therapist. I welcome those who have been marginalized, oppressed, or demoralized. I have an affinity for helping interracial, LGBTQ, kink & poly relationships; I also enjoy working with individuals who want to explore relationship dynamics and opportunities for personal growth.

My Background and Approach

As your ally, I will be present for you while you process your unique experiences. Together, we'll make sense of things and use what we learn to shape a new narrative. My “attachment-based” approach is integral to fostering caring connections both within the therapeutic alliance and within your own relationships, at home and at work. I lean on emotion focused couples therapy and acceptance & commitment therapy models to help guide my work. We'll focus on physical, mental, emotional, and relational health through developing small new habits, values exploration and interrupting interactional patterns that keep you stuck in toxic cycles. In a previous life, I worked in retirement living, education, and the nonprofit world. I moved to Colorado Springs in 2019 with my spouse, an active duty service member, and our two dogs. I find peace in the outdoors and through my yoga practice. I enjoy traveling, reading fiction, watching movies, and fermenting anything I can put in a jar.

My Personal Beliefs and Interests

I believe everyone can benefit from therapy; I have certainly experienced growth spurts through my many different journeys in therapy. I believe in holistic health and understanding how all parts of us influence one another. My philosophy is that we all experience life in different ways, and endure challenges and painful times. Having a rough go of it shouldn’t be pathologized. I am not quick to offer diagnoses, or to encourage medication. I like to start from the foundations looking at patterns of sleep, physical movement, nutrition, and habits & rituals to see what can be tweaked to optimize growth. I embrace humans of all shapes, ethnicities, cultures, genders/nonconformists, sexual orientations, religions (or lack thereof), political beliefs, ages / stages in life, and abilities. No matter who you are, where you are from, or where you are going, you have a home with me.
