Hello and welcome. I am licensed in the State of Colorado as a Licensed Professional Counselor as well as a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist. I am also a Registered Play Therapist and a Colorado Addictions Counselor II. I provide counseling services to children (2+), adolescents, adults, and families. My specialty includes childhood trauma including sexual abuse, physical abuse, neglect, witnessing domestic violence or any other traumatic event. I also provide supervision to other professionals working on obtaining their license in the field. Counseling Services: Play Therapy: Uses various mediums for the expression of thoughts, fears, and emotions in a safe environment to achieve growth and nsight. Individual Counseling: Helps you to gain insight into your conce
s, to heal from past wounds, and promote growth and wholeness. Family Counseling: Helps families to gain understanding of disruptive patterns. Helps to improve communication skills, problem-solving, and promote greater family harmony. Group Counseling: Group work has many benefits to its members. The group brings together individuals who share a similar issue to work through in a safe and supportive environment.
My approach is supportive, warm, and collaborative. I believe that the client/counselor relationship is important in the therapeutic process. I am integrative in approach as I believe that no single therapy is beneficial for everyone. I use various counseling theories and techniques to treat the "whole" person. Depending on your goals in therapy I may draw from, experiential, cognitive behavioral therapy, humanistic, and/or systemic approaches.
