Therapy for a Deeper, Truer Life

You may have arrived here because, by every external measure, your life is working, and yet something inside you isn't. Maybe you feel unseen and an outsider even when you're surrounded by people. Maybe you're tired of being the capable one, the strong one, the one who holds it all together. Maybe you keep meeting the same patterns and the same emptiness, no matter how much you achieve.

You're here because you're ready to understand yourself at a deeper level, to heal the parts of you that were overlooked long ago, reconnect with what you actually want, and build a life that finally feels as meaningful on the inside as it looks from the outside. That's the work I do.

I offer in-person and virtual depth-oriented, relational psychotherapy from my office in Greenwood Village, Colorado and virtually across the state. Below, you'll find how I work and what to expect.

Individual Therapy

I work with thoughtful, insightful, creative, sensitive, and ambitious women, the ones who learned early how to adapt. The ones who became capable, responsible, and exquisitely attuned to everyone else, often at the expense of themselves. Many of my clients grew up with childhood emotional neglect: a parent who was emotionally immature or unavailable, a sibling who took up all the air, a family system that couldn't quite meet them. So they learned to need less, to achieve more, and to keep the emotional climate around them steady.

It's a brilliant adaptation. It's also exhausting, and it can leave you feeling anxious, perfectionistic, empty, or strangely disconnected from yourself, even in a life that looks enviable from the outside.

Together, we slow things down. My work is depth-oriented, relational, and psychdynamic at its core: rather than only managing symptoms, we listen beneath them: the over-functioning, the self-abandonment, the unconscious patterns and exiled parts that run the show. We make room for the feelings that were once too risky to have. We help you untangle old survival strategies, build a real sense of self-trust, set boundaries without guilt, and relate to others from choice rather than fear. This work isn't about fixing you but about remembering who you were before everything became about managing everyone else, and freeing you to live as fully and freely yourself.
what to expect
To understand where you are now and where you long to go, our work begins with where you've been. What you're living today almost always has roots in an earlier time. The past and early experiences shape the present in ways that can be hard to see alone. As we bring that complexity into the light, we can make sense of it together, and set an intentional course for the work ahead. This is a more reflective therapy. It's where insight turns into lasting change and where you begin to live in closer alignment with your own meaning, desire, and sense of purpose.
how it works
Whether in person or virtual, I offer a warm, unhurried, non-judgmental space for genuine depth and vulnerability. Most of our work unfolds in weekly sessions, with the rhythm and focus revisited over time as your needs change. For those who want to go deeper more quickly, I also offer EMDR and IFS intensives. If you're curious whether an intensive is right for you, we can explore it together in a free consultation.

We never ask you to do something that we wouldn’t do ourselves.

Couples and Relationship Therapy

When your relationship isn’t going well, it can overshadow everything else in your life. The kitchen is a mess again, despite your constant appeals. Your partner spends more time online these days than with you. You just made a big decision without letting your S.O. know about it. That tone of voice they use makes you feel stupid.  The thing that happened between you is still hanging in the air.

Unresolved issues within your relationship can lead to a cycle of conflict and disconnection. But how we act and interact within our relationships isn’t just about right now – it has deep roots. Your earliest caregivers may not have modeled open communication, healthy emotional connection, or appropriate boundaries, and these can become areas of friction in your relationship.

Understanding your patterns can help you change them. Couples and relationship therapy helps you put together the pieces of yourself to create a satisfying, fulfilling partnership.
Commonly Addressed Issues
  • Impacts of Trauma and Attachment
  • Relationship Ambivalence
  • Navigating Dating and Relationships
  • Premarital Counseling
  • Stagnant Relationships
  • Infidelity Repair
  • Rebuilding Intimacy
  • Infertility
  • Transition to Parenthood

what to expect
We repeat what we don't repair. That's true for how we show up as individuals and as partners.Couples and relationship therapy helps you navigate past and present issues, and learn new practices to build on the foundation you know is still there with your partner. It can also show you how to navigate modern dating with a new perspective. Through therapy, you'll learn tools to strengthen communication, rebuild trust, and create greater intimacy and emotional connection in your relationships. Whether you’re dating, married, or somewhere in between, we’re here to help you create and maintain satisfying connections that last.

Sex Therapy

Most of us haven’t received the best messages about sex from an early age. You may have been influenced by an abysmal sex education system, sex-negative societal norms, embarrassing or shameful early sexual experiences, or parents or caretakers who didn't talk openly about healthy sexuality.

These formative learning experiences set the tone for our sexual lives and can cause sexual problems later. We’re here to help you let go of the unhelpful stories, cultural programming, and shame, so that you can lead an embodied, empowered sex life, no matter what relationship constellation or stage of life you find yourself in.
Commonly Addressed Issues
  • Mismatched Desire
  • Low Sex Drive
  • Arousal Difficulty
  • Performance Anxiety
  • Erectile Issues
  • Lack of Orgasm
  • Painful Sex
  • Sexual Shame
  • Sex and Chronic Illness
  • Aging and Sex
  • Sex After Trauma
  • Out of Control Sexual Behavior
  • Kinks and BDSM
  • Sexual Communication
what to expect
Don’t let the name intimidate you. Sex therapy is a lot like individual or couples therapy. It’s talk therapy that focuses on addressing specific concerns related to sexual health, wellbeing, intimacy, and pleasure. Individuals and couples come to sex therapy to discover fulfillment and confidence in their sexual lives.

Sexual problems can occur for a number of reasons, including past trauma, stress, relational issues, biology, and body image. That's why we'll focus on the mind-body-spirit connection to find an integrative solution. Sex therapy can play an important role in the elimination of shame and the rediscovery of pleasure and excitement. It promotes clarity, confidence, and competence in your relationship with your sexual self.

We use a sex-positive approach in therapy, and we're LGBTQIA-friendly and kink-knowledgeable.
how it works
Couples and sex therapy may take place in weekly sessions or as therapy intensives, and it begins with our 3-step assessment process:

1. We start with an initial joint session to talk about what brought you to therapy.

2. Our joint session is followed by two individual sessions to better understand each partner. These individual sessions cover subjects such as family, sexual history, and relationship history, and include an in-depth relationship assessment that highlights areas of strength and growth.

3. Following the individual sessions, we come back together to outline a path forward.

We see our best results and biggest breakthroughs when individuals are willing to look within at their contributions to the relational dynamic, and follow through between sessions with completing any recommended exercises, videos, or reading materials.Over time, we'll revisit and adjust the frequency or focus of sessions, as new or different needs arise or abate. Virtual joint sessions can be conducted with both individuals attending from the same or separate spaces.

Sex therapy never involves nudity or sexual contact between therapist and clients, or between clients.
