Verified

“I view therapy as a collaborative process, support through skill acquisition or talking for deeper exploration. I also offer various assessments for all ages.”

About Me

I view therapy as a collaborative process, ensuring our work truly meets your needs. We can develop practical skills to navigate challenges or explore deeper insights for lasting growth. I also offer comprehensive assessments for all ages, providing clarity. This flexible approach suits clients seeking tailored support, for immediate tools or greater self-understanding. My aim is to help you feel fully supported and heard.

Approach

I help clients translate goals into concrete steps, alternating focused skill practice with deeper reflective work when that feels most useful. Sessions in my Denver office or via telehealth move at a steady, collaborative pace through discussions, teaching skills during sessions, and you putting those skills into practice between meetings. This can support you in learning new ways of coping, being, relating, managing your emotions, or working through interpersonal or family patterns.
