Top Colorado teenagers therapists who accept cash payments

Hello! No matter what has brought you to this place, change is possible. You may feel exhausted on the hamster wheel of anxiety or stuck in a pit of depression. You may be grieving a life that you used to know and struggling to find your new footing. You may feel stagnant and in need of a fresh perspective. If therapy is the next right thing for you, I’d be honored to walk alongside you in uncovering the path forward. I have experience providing Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) to individuals experiencing depression, anxiety, grief and loss, the effects of trauma, and other life-stressors. In addition to CBT and EMDR, I utilize motivational interviewing, solution focused techniques, and the occasional podcast quote. It is my hope to create a safe, therapeutic environment that allows you to share your story and explore your thoughts and feelings, for it is in that reflection where you will learn the power that you have to shift your mood using cognitive and behavioral strategies. ** Please note: Starting May 1, 2025 I will be moving locations to 1512 Church Road, Suite AA, Liberty, MO 64068 **

My specialty is treating clients suffering from depression and anxiety, I am passionate about helping those who suffer from varying mental health issues. I am fully aware of the impact that living with mental health issues can take on an individual’s life. I believe in helping patients regain control in their lives in order to live their best life. Depression comes in many shapes and sizes from severe to high functioning, all forms of depression can be treatable and I believe that by working together we can come up with a treatment plan to help you feel more like yourself again. Often depression and anxiety can go hand in hand, working with clients who have experienced feelings of both depression and anxiety we can determine appropriate coping skills to help manage both. I have also worked with clients who have experienced varying trauma, from childhood trauma including sexual abuse and domestic violence as well PTSD. We are seeing more and more individuals who experience varying level of trauma from bullying at school, or in the workplace, as well as spiritual trauma from religious experiences. I also specialize in treating those who have experienced a traumatic event in their lives using a trauma focused approach to help begin the process of healing. Open to working with children/adolescents 10 years and older.

I earned a bachelor's degree in Psychology in 1995, and a master's degree in counseling in 2001 from the University of Nebraska at Omaha.

Whether you struggle with relationship conflicts, depression, anxiety, or unresolved trauma, my approach will help you gain insight into root causes, develop clear steps to move forward and obtain the peace and joy that comes with knowing the truth and being set free to experience the life God provides through His Son.

Since 2018, I have utilized person-centered and strength-based practices to promote the "Power of Self." These practices empower individuals to direct their therapeutic process.

I trust that each person has their own innate wisdom. We will focus on allowing this wisdom to arise and let it guide us toward your well-being.
