Life has its ups and downs, but if the "down" days are adding up, you may be feeling disconnected, emotionally distant, or stuck in behavioral patterns that aren't working for you anymore. I support individuals, couples, and families who want to break out of those patterns, engage critically with their emotional experiences, and (re)build meaningful connections with the people they feel closest to.
I use evidence-based approaches from advanced training in cutting-edge therapies (like the Psychobiological Approach to Couple Therapy, Internal Family Systems, and Gottman Method Couple Therapy) to provide an effective and highly relational approach to treatment.
I offer online therapy services for adolescents and adults in Colorado, including morning and evening appointments to accommodate busy schedules. Limited in-person availability for weekend appointments in Fort Collins.
I offer individual therapy for people seeking to improve their mental and relational health. I work with clients to process trauma, build coping skills, and re-engage in their relationships authentically. In individual therapy, I primarily utilize techniques from Internal Family Systems Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Solution-Focused Therapy, and Emotionally Focused Therapy.
I specialize primarily in couple therapy, working with couples who feel stuck in cycles that don't serve their relationship. Often, these cycles began as effective ways of coping and presented difficulties only as contexts changed over time. I help couples break out of these cycles, primarily employing techniques from the Psychobiological Approach to Couple Therapy and Emotionally Focused Therapy.
The people we hold close are those most likely to make us "feel" anything, good or bad. Family therapy can help people re-connect with those they are closest to. Families working with me can expect to learn new ways of relating to one another, managing conflict, and communicating about emotional and other needs more clearly. We will practice skills for these goals together during each session.

I specialize in working with couples that are struggling to communicate with one another and may be feeling a sense of emotional distance or relationship strain. My work with couples is both practical and direct, intended to leave people after each session with new skills they're ready to implement at home.

It's difficult to feel uncertain about the future of your relationship. Deciding whether to stay together or pursue separation/divorce can be one of the most daunting decisions of a person's life. I'm here to support couples to find and implement healthy next steps in their relationship.

First responders face intense stress, unpredictable schedules, and exposure to traumatic events that can affect mood, sleep, relationships, and overall functioning. Family members are likely to experience similar strain. strive to create an environment where first responders and their families feel understood.

I offer therapy for rural, agricultural, and farming families that is respectful of the realities of rural life, including the value placed on hard work, family responsibility, and community support. Together, we can address concerns like anxiety, depression, conflict, and other challenges facing rural families.

Major life transitions like marriage, parenthood, or developmental changes in adolescence can come with excitement and difficulty at the same time. Therapy for life transitions can help people manage stress, strengthen supportive relationships, and adapt to new roles/realities in life as they arise.

Many people who are driven, capable, and successful feel internal pressure to perform and struggle to slow down without feeling guilty. Therapy can help high-stress professionals reduce anxiety and burnout, and build a more sustainable relationship with their important life goals.
I have completed Level 1 training in Gottman Method Couple Therapy.
I have completed Level 1 training in PACT, the Psychobiological Approach to Couple Therapy. Couples therapy with me is most heavily informed by PACT conceptualization and interventions.
I completed a 45-hour training program in Internal Family Systems Therapy.
I intentionally keep my rates lower than local averages because I believe specialized therapy for relationship issues should be more financially accessible. I am out-of-network with insurance agencies, but can provide courtesy billing or "superbills" upon request. I accept all major debit/credit cards, including HSA cards. I offer a sliding scale through Open Path to a limited number of low-income/uninsured clients. Please inquire if you may be eligible.
