As a trauma-informed, patient-centered psychiatric clinician, I specialize in collaborative mental health care for children, adolescents, and their families. My approach utilizes evidence-based, strengths-based, and relational therapies to create an encouraging space that supports the whole person, where you feel understood and empowered in your healing. I look forward to helping you achieve your mental health goals as you reach positive, lasting growth.
I believe in meeting people with compassion, curiosity, and support, serving as a thoughtful and collaborative partner along your path toward healing. In our time together, you are empowered to achieve that growth in a safe environment that helps you build insight, increase self-understanding, and improve emotional regulation. Care is tailored to your unique history, experiences, needs, and goals, while at all times remaining warm, thoughtful, relational, and collaborative so you realize resilience and meaningful change.
My therapeutic journey began more than ten years ago working in the mental health field as a social worker and therapist, supporting children, adolescents, and their families navigating trauma and complex mental health challenges. Their resiliency and drive showed me the importance of recognizing the impact of past experiences, building on existing strengths, and creating space for healing, growth, and meaningful change. In my care now, I use this integrative and whole-person perspective to ensure compassionate, trauma-informed care in every session.
When I’m not helping patients, I’m spending time with my two amazing daughters and loving husband. We especially enjoy skiing and hiking around Colorado.
