I earned my Master’s degree in clinical counseling from the University of Northern Colorado and officially embarked on my journey to become a couples and family therapist. It has proved to be the best decision I have ever made. I love going to “work.” (I needed the quotes because sometimes it really doesn’t feel like work!) I love working with couples and helping them move closer to each other. I love my new colleagues and working closely with them to become a better therapist every day. I even owe my relationship to this new field as I met my partner at an EFT training event. Yes – she is also a couples therapist. And a great one at that!

Frequently Asked Questions
Do you offer a free consultation?
Yes. Finding a therapist with whom you “click” is very important. I like to meet all of my potential clients face to face so we can get to know each other and you can ask whatever you like about me and about my methods of therapy. If you think I am not the right therapist for you, I will help you find someone who is a better fit. This is a service I offer for free and I urge you to take me up on it.

Individual sessions are typically 50 minutes. Couples and family sessions are typically 75 minutes. Group sessions and workshops are typically 90 to 120 minutes.
