Introduction: As a registered psychotherapist in private practice in Colorado Springs, Colorado, I see a variety of clients including individuals, couples and families.
I specialize in loss and transition due to illness, divorce, death, and job loss. I see clients needing stress management and help with self-esteem issues, and clients with medical diagnoses so that they can cope with the emotions surrounding illness and disease.
I am available as a speaker on a variety of topics bringing psycho-education in an easy to digest manner.
I have over 12 years of experience working with families and clients with TBIs, Alzheimer's, and physical disabilities. As a graduate of the University of Phoenix specializing in marriage, family and child therapy, and a graduate of CSU-Pueblo in exercise science, I incorporate health-promotion techniques and approach mental health as part of the entire picture of health and complete well-being.
I am an interactive therapist whose therapeutic approach includes providing support and practical feedback to help clients effectively address personal life challenges.
I integrate complementary methodologies and techniques to offer a highly personalized approach tailored to each client. As a wife, mother and grandmother, I work from the perspective of compassion, understanding, and patience as I work with each individual, couple or family to help them build on their strengths and attain the personal growth they are committed to accomplishing.
