Holistic Psychotherapy Counseling

Do you feel stuck, depressed or emotionally overwhelmed?

Are self-sabotaging patterns of thought and behavior getting in your way?

Is your career or your relationship all you want it to be?

If you have found my website, chances are you're looking for support in dealing with issues that are causing pain and dissatisfaction in your life. As a Licensed Professional Counselor and Holistic Psychotherapist, I am committed to helping people experience healing and lasting personal change in their lives and personal relationships. 

I provide individualized psychotherapy for adults, teens, couples and families in Denver and Boulder, CO. My therapeutic approach is holistic, and tailored to the unique needs of each client. Because no single therapy works for everyone, I use an integrative approach that includes both traditional and nontraditional psychotherapy. My work embraces the whole person – body, mind and spirit.

In almost two decades of clinical practice, I have been trained in the most advanced psychotherapy and counseling techniques.  I consider EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) to be the most effective therapy for rapidly resolving traumatic experiences (e.g. emotional, physical and sexual abuse). The effectiveness of EMDR has been clinically proven in the treatment of PTSD (post-traumatic stress disorder) and panic attacks. EMDR also helps people struggling with performance anxiety, fear of public speaking, grief and loss, depression and emotional resolution of an auto accident. Please visit my EMDR page for more information.

One of my principal specialties is in helping people with relationship and intimacy issues such as improving communication skills, overcoming guilt and shame in sexual relationships and establishing healthy boundaries. I also help people transform patterns of destructive anger, self-sabotage and codependency.

As a Licensed Counselor and Holistic Psychotherapist I also address issues including, but not limited to:

  • clarifying goals and life purpose
  • resolving mid-life issues and other stressful life transitions
  • healing grief and loss (including the loss of loved ones, pets, etc.)
  • personal renewal after a relationship breakup or divorce
  • transforming negative core beliefs and self-limiting thought patterns
  • improving body image and self-esteem
  • managing the effects of depression, anxiety, SAD (seasonal affective disorder) and bipolar disorder (manic depression)
  • exploring career options and "right livelihood"
  • reducing social anxiety at school, at work or in social situations
  • controlling negative emotions and mood swings
  • improving energy level, motivation and mood with a balanced regimen of therapy, nutrition, exercise and sleep
  • learning adaptation skills for the "highly sensitive person"
  • deepening one’s spiritual connection
