Maybe this isn’t how you thought your life would turn out.
Something has changed, or maybe what used to work just isn’t working anymore. You might feel stuck in a job, relationship, stage of life, or version of yourself that no longer feels right. Anxiety or depression may have crept in along the way. You may be questioning what you want, what you believe, or even the values you thought you were sure about.
Maybe you once felt passionate about life, but it turned out so differently than you expected and you're not sure where to go from here. And when life looks different than you expected, it can be easy to wonder if you somehow got it wrong.
Therapy can give you a place to slow down and make sense of where you are now. You can talk honestly about what isn’t working, explore what matters to you, and begin separating what you actually want from what you thought your life was supposed to look like.
You can work through the disappointment, uncertainty, and changes that come when life takes an unexpected direction and begin figuring out what feels right for you now. The goal isn’t to get back to the life you thought you would have. It’s to feel more grounded in who you are and more certain about where you go from here.

How I Work:
I am a counselor in training earning my masters in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Colorado Christian University. I use a variety of therapeutic modalities to help you reach your goals and will tailor my approach to your unique situation. I resonate with modalities that offer practical tools to help you feel better, such as cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), behavioral therapy, and solution-focused techniques. However, I believe healing occurs in the context of relationships where we feel safe, seen, and understood.
I believe that you, the client, are the expert in your life. I take a collaborative approach with you to progress towards identified goals. I strive to offer a welcoming, compassionate, and nonjudgmental space for you to heal and grow. For clients who desire to integrate spirituality into their therapeutic goals, I am open to walking with you on that journey.
I have worked in a variety of fields over the course of my life, including working as a chemist, an esthetician, and a tutor. I was raised in Pueblo, where I still live. In my free time, I enjoy walking anywhere in nature, reading, and spending time with my friends and family.
