Direct, Honest, and Compassionate Therapy.
As a Licensed Marriage & Family Therapist in Colorado who has been working with young adults and their families for over 15 years, I am passionate about educating, supporting and coaching young adults and their families to achieve their goals and engage in long-lasting change. In addition to my clinical work, I bring over 10 years of leadership and supervisory experience in the mental health field, including overseeing and mentoring teams of mental health providers. My experience as a Clinical Director and Lead Parent Coach has shaped my collaborative approach to care, with an emphasis on clinical excellence, professional development, and helping individuals and families build meaningful, lasting change.
I received my undergraduate degree in Psychology & Neuroscience from the University of Colorado at Boulder in 2010. I pursued my interest in working with parents, couples & families by obtaining my master’s degree in education in Couples and Family Therapy at the University of Oregon in Eugene, Oregon in 2012.
