INDividual Therapy

I specialize in treating mental, emotional, and relational struggles relating to ADHD, Autism, parenting, disability, PDA, twice-exceptionalism (2e), giftedness, life transitions, stay at home parenting, religious trauma/faith crises, and anxiety. I am LGBTQIA+ affirming and constantly aim for cultural humility and sensitivity. I provide treatment for individuals for ages 11+. Whether you’re trying to rediscover yourself after a divorce, need solutions to manage a neurodivergent home, or need new tools to manage the struggles that come with raising children who require extra support, I’d love to connect.

In session, I provide a listening ear, collaborate with you to establish goals and discover solutions, and may occasionally provide activities or resources to try between sessions. My bachelor’s degree is in art education, so I also love doing art therapy techniques with clients if they wish, even with adults! (Absolutely no talent required!)

**At this time I have a few available sliding scale slots for parents of special needs children (not applicable for couples sessions.)

Neurodivergent Couples Therapy

Communication issues, navigating coparenting disagreements, experiencing conflicting needs...you love your partner but some things are just not clicking and sometimes it feels like you are living in different worlds.

I specialize in treating neurodivergent couples, as well as couples experiencing differing neurotypes (such as one spouse being neurotypical while the other has ADHD, or an autistic partner+ADHD partner, etc.)

I am trained in Levels 1 and 2 of Gottman Couples Counseling, and use an eclectic approach to meet the needs of the clients. I am not a passive couples therapist—we will work hard to excavate the “why” behind the problems, practice new skills in session, and work towards creating a healthier relationship.

To learn more about what to expect in couples counseling, see my FAQ page.

Family Therapy

When an individual has a disability, it often impacts the whole family system. While struggles are a normal part of being in any family, disability can exacerbate stresses and pile on new ones, with no built-in roadmap on how to navigate them. If your family could use some support, I am here to help you navigate conflicts and challenging times relating to disability and special needs, including but not limited to: ADHD, autism, oppositional defiant disorder, demand avoidance, Down Syndrome, and rare disorders.

*Please note that at this time, I can only provide family sessions if all the members participating are present in Colorado, but I am happy to provide a referral if you need support that crosses state lines.
