The Story

Before the therapy room, there was the boardroom.

I spent years as a healthcare executive, navigating high-stakes decisions, leading teams, and performing under constant pressure. I understand the demands of leadership, achievement, burnout, and the emotional toll of always appearing strong while struggling beneath the surface.

Then my own life brought me to a place I couldn't solve on my own. Through trauma therapy, EMDR, and deep personal work with the right therapist, I experienced profound healing. My faith carried me through what logic alone could not. That journey—from the boardroom to the therapy chair—is what shaped the therapist I am today.

I didn't become a therapist because it seemed like the next career step. I became one because I know firsthand that healing is possible. Today, I help children, adolescents, and adults move beyond trauma, anxiety, and emotional pain through compassionate, evidence-based counseling.

A Note on Faith

I'm faith-based.
I lead with honesty.

My faith is an important part of who I am, and I believe in being transparent about that from the very beginning. At the same time, I welcome clients of every background, belief system, and worldview. My therapy practice is not a religious program—it's a safe, respectful space where every person is treated with compassion, dignity, and evidence-based care. If your faith is part of your healing journey, there's room for it. If it isn't, you'll still receive the same level of care, respect, and support.

"Don't judge me, and I won't judge you.
It really is that simple."
How I Work

What You Can Expect in Therapy

Direct

Focused on meaningful progress

Your time and investment matter. I don't believe in spending months talking in circles. Together, we'll identify the root causes of what's keeping you stuck and focus on practical, lasting progress.

Real

Authentic connection

I believe therapy works best when there's genuine human connection. I bring warmth, honesty, and the perspective of someone who has experienced healing firsthand, creating a space where you can be fully yourself.

Deep

Healing beyond the symptoms

Anxiety, depression, and emotional patterns are often symptoms of deeper experiences. Through trauma-informed therapy and EMDR, we work to uncover and heal the root causes so lasting change becomes possible.

The Practice

Two locations.
One approach.

I provide trauma therapy, individual counseling, and EMDR intensives from two convenient Colorado locations. I see clients during the week in both offices, with Saturday EMDR Intensives available for those seeking focused, in-depth trauma treatment.
