About

I am a professional and substance use counselor licensed in both Colorado and Arizona with over 16 years of experience working as a counselor. I have worked with clients with a wide range of concerns including depression, anxiety, relationship issues, parenting problems, career challenges, substance use, OCD and ADHD. I also helped many people who have experienced physical trauma or emotional abuse.

My counseling style is warm and interactive with a positive touch of humor. I believe in treating anyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion, and I don't believe in stigmatizing labels. My approach combines cognitive-behavioral, Gestalt, Reality, and rational-emotive counseling. I will tailor our dialog and treatment plan to meet your unique and specific needs. I believe that my job as a counselor is to help you build or enhance your skills to manage the rest of your life.

It takes courage to accept the challenge to create a more fulfilling and happier life. Taking the first steps towards making a change often requires help. If you are ready to take that step I am here to support and empower you.

I look forward to working with you!
