My approach to care is bold, real, and unapologetically human. I’m not afraid to dive into the messy, the uncomfortable, the taboo—trauma, relationships, sexuality, money, power, spirituality—and yes, I’ll cuss if it fits. Humor, even the dark kind, is welcome here. I meet you exactly where you are and partner with you to figure out where you want to go, tailoring each session to your goals, needs, and personality. I speak honestly, call out the BS when it matters, and admit when I screw up, because growth is mutual. My sessions aren’t cookie-cutter; they shift based on what you need in the moment. You’ll leave each session feeling like you’ve learned something meaningful, gained clarity, and carried a sense of relief with you. No judgment. No fluff. Just real work that moves you forward.

Clients describe me as real, skilled, and authentic. Sure, every therapist is supposed to listen and be non-judgmental—but let’s be honest, that’s not always people’s experience. Many of my clients come to me after working with therapists where they didn’t get much out of it, felt like the therapist didn’t say much, or even sensed that what they needed to bring into the space was “too much.” With me, you’ll find a balance of authenticity and directness, while also holding space for your full humanity. I’m relational in my approach, which means I’ll bring my own lived experience and hard-earned wisdom into the room, not just nod and smile.

Therapy with me is about digging into the messy stuff that’s weighing you down and learning the skills to shift it. Together, we’ll look at the patterns and pain that keep showing up, build new ways of thinking and coping, and clear out what no longer serves you. My goal is that you leave sessions not just feeling lighter, but also equipped—with clarity, confidence, and practical tools you can actually use to thrive in your life and relationships.

I’m a Colorado transplant with roots in the Ozarks, carrying the laid-back, down-home spirit of the hills alongside the equally easygoing vibe of Colorado. I use she/her pronouns and navigate the world as a predominantly white woman with a lineage that threads Cherokee blood with German and Irish heritage. My path has been shaped by leaving behind the doctrine of evangelical teachings and embracing life as a Muslim revert, a shift that opened the door to a deeper spirituality. I’m drawn to astrology, tarot, the phases of the moon (and yes, I’m a little obsessed with doors), and all things strange and unusual.

I’m a cat mom, a teen boy mom, and a brand-new plant mom—each role teaching me different lessons about patience, humor, and resilience. I live in the “in between” generationally—not quite Gen X, not fully Millennial, with the balance and harmony of Libra, and the intensity and depth of Scorpio.—carrying a mix of grit, adaptability, and curiosity. Think Hermione’s wit meets Luna’s curiosity with just a dash of Snape’s honest directness—that’s pretty much me.

Personality-wise, I lean into my INFJ-J tendencies: ambitious yet dutiful, humanitarian and innovator at heart. People often tell me I communicate and live in ways that are inspiring, insightful, and informative. Photography, travel, fashion, food, thrifting and trying new things light me up and feed my spirit of play and creativity. To the core, I’m about growth, meaning, and finding magic in the mess.
