Counseling Services & Specialties
Empowering individuals to embrace their inherent worth and value, cultivate resilience, identify their unique gifts, strengthen their relationships, and live authentically into who they were created to be.
Trauma, anxiety, depression, disappointments, complex relationship dynamics, and the pressures of responsibilities and everyday life can keep us feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or not “enough”. If you find yourself coping in ways that are no longer working, people-pleasing, struggling with how you feel about yourself, constantly weighed down by worries, anxiety, or perfectionism, losing interest in activities you used to enjoy, or “white-knuckling” your way through life, counseling can help. When you take the time to invest in yourself (you’re worth it, by the way!), you can better understand your thoughts and feelings, how you relate to others, how you show up in the world, and what you can do to find your voice and make lasting changes for your life.

Young adulthood is often filled with excitement as well as so many transitions and change. You may be leaving home for the first time, heading off to college, graduating from school, moving to a new community, or starting a career. So many decisions to make, various losses, and so much change is hard and can feel overwhelming. Additionally, the difficulties of past traumas, relationship challenges, loneliness, anxiety, or depression can compound the stress you may already be experiencing during this time of your life. You are not alone. I would love to help you process your feelings and the specific struggles you are facing as you continue to navigate the ups and downs of life. We will work together to identify healthy ways to manage the challenges you are facing so you can experience a more integrated and wholehearted way of living.
Young Adults
Adolescence can be an especially challenging time of life. In today’s world, many teens are overwhelmed with pressure from every angle, while simultaneously experiencing so much developmental growth and change. The pressures of school, friends, family stress, extracurriculars, social media, and themselves can lead to difficulties with low self-esteem, relationships, poor coping skills, anxiety, and depression.
If you are worried about your teen or if they are struggling, there is hope! I especially love helping older teens (16yrs+) identify their strengths, values, and goals for their life, and enjoy helping them understand more about who they are and who they are becoming. I provide a safe space where they can openly share their thoughts and feelings and equip them with tools and skills to navigate challenges and relationships in healthy ways and with greater confidence.
Teens
Parenting is tough and it can be difficult to always know how to support and connect with your teen in ways that are helpful to both you and your child and that promote a healthy, connected relationship. I offer parents support through solution-focused strategies, practical tools, and psycho-education to equip and empower you to better understand your teen’s brain, and help you to nurture their mental health and support their emotional development. Together we partner to find ways to best support you in your parenting journey while fostering healthy parent-child communication and connection between you and your teen.
Parent Support
Individuals residing anywhere in Colorado or Michigan may benefit from online counseling sessions. Tele-therapy can be an excellent option for those who cannot attend in-office sessions due to limitations such as health issues, transportation barriers, distance from my office, or being away at college (as long as you are physically located in MI or CO at the time of sessions). Feel free to reach out if you have any questions or to see if virtual counseling might be a good fit.
