About
I am a Licensed Professional Counselor who practices in the state of Colorado, and have been counseling for the past five years. I completed a Bachelor of Science degree in Psychology from the University of Houston-Downtown in 2011 and a Master of Arts degree in Professional Counseling from Liberty University in 2013. I've worked in social services in some capacity over the last ten years with teens up to older adults. I am certified in trauma therapy & crisis intervention, and hold the designation of national certified counselor through the National Board of Certified Counselors.
I specialize in mental health and substance use treatment with both individuals and groups. This has helped me gain a wide variety of experience in aiding my clients with building skills for coping, regulating emotions, navigating relationships, dealing with grief and loss, & problem-solving. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy is the modality that I have found to be most effective, because we get to where we are, based on how we think. However, I also use techniques from solution-focused therapy, motivational interviewing, as well as existential and experiential schools of thought.
My favorite approach is client-centered, which means that my clients get to drive their own treatment. A person's internal motivations will create change much faster than someone else's. It is a great joy in my life to be able to help people unload heavy burdens and progress towards their potential; and it is my honor to be able to help you.
