Ever since I was a teenager I’ve been fascinated by what helps us grow, heal, and stay connected to our loved ones throughout our lives. Becoming a therapist gave me a new way to be there for others and a chance to make a meaningful difference in someone’s life.

I believe healing is a lifestyle change process. Healing requires us to learn how to move through what hurts.

My own experience is what first led me to discover AHA. After a traumatic event suddenly brought intense fight or flight symptoms into my life, I found myself searching for a way to heal beyond simply managing the symptoms. AHA became a central part of my healing journey. The more I practiced AHA, the more I noticed myself changing, growing, and reconnecting with the life I wanted to live.

Today, I want to offer others that same possibility for meaningful change.

I’ll meet you with honesty and trust, encourage you to take courageous steps, and walk alongside you with the structure and consistency needed to keep moving forward.

I think of healing a lot like training for a marathon: you don't have to run the whole distance at once. There is a process, there is support, and there is a way forward.

My Education & Experience:

My education includes a Master’s degree in Marriage and Family Therapy from Regis University and a Bachelor’s degree in Psychology with a minor in Social Work from the University of Iowa. I am a Marriage and Family Therapist Candidate (MFTC) in Colorado.

My clinical experience includes working with individuals, couples, and families across inpatient, outpatient, residential, outreach, and group therapy settings, supporting people through anxiety, trauma, relationship challenges, and life transitions.

My work is grounded in systemic and relational therapy and integrates Autonomic Homeostasis Activation (AHA) as my primary therapeutic approach.
