I've been a licensed clinical psychologist in private practice in the Denver area since 2004, and I still find this work as meaningful as I did at the beginning. Over the years, I've had the privilege of sitting with adults through some of the hardest moments of their lives and watching them find their way through.

My practice focuses on depression, anxiety, relationship struggles, and grief. I also have a deep specialization in perinatal mental health: supporting individuals and families through pregnancy, postpartum challenges, fertility difficulties, and pregnancy loss. This is nuanced, often under-recognized work, and it's close to my heart.

My approach draws from multiple theoretical orientations, current neuroscience research, and extensive clinical experience. I don't believe in a one-size-fits-all model. I work collaboratively with each client to develop a realistic plan that reflects their goals, their pace, and their life.

Prior to private practice, I worked in inpatient psychiatric hospitals, school settings, community mental health, and university counseling centers. I also served as adjunct faculty at the University of Denver, where I designed and taught a graduate course on the psychology of grief and loss.`

"I believe the therapeutic relationship is the most powerful predictor of meaningful change — which is why I invest in it from the very first session."

Professional involvement

I believe psychologists have a responsibility to advocate for the profession and for the clients we serve. I currently serve as Legislative Chair for the Colorado Psychological Association and as a Federal Advocacy Coordinator for Colorado and enjoy being a part of the policies that impact the populations I serve. I'm also a member of the American Psychological Association and Postpartum Support International, where I volunteer as a resource coordinator for the Denver area.
