she/her
From a young age, I have been fascinated by the human experience. I often found myself wondering what makes us us and paid close attention to people’s relationships with themselves, one another, and their environments. This curiosity stayed with me and led me to pursue a career in psychology and counseling. I’ve applied the knowledge and skills developed through my education in various work settings including research, non-profits, schools, and the private sector. Through exploring many areas of this field and multiple roles within, I was able to identify what I wanted my career to look like. This led me to launch my own business with the hope of connecting with and empowering individuals, professionals, and companies on their journeys while simultaneously enjoying mine.
I am originally from San Diego, California. After moving around the country for several years, I settled on making Colorado home. When I’m not working, you can find me hiking outdoors, curled up with a good book, or spending time with family and friends.

Gus Giorgione
Therapy Dog
Gus is an AKC Registered Golden Retriever. He lived with his breeder for the first 2 years of his life, working as a show dog. At age 2, Gus decided it was time for a career-change, and that’s when he became a part of my family.
After meeting Gus for the first time, I quickly observed his calming and intuitive presence. It seemed like he was meant to be a therapy dog and so began our journey. Gus has gone through training and evaluations in order to receive his certifications. I often incorporate Gus in sessions as a part of animal-assisted therapy. Outside of therapy sessions, Gus and I volunteer through Pet Partners, a nonprofit organization that provides therapy animal visits in schools, hospitals, and other community settings.
Gus loves meeting and interacting with clients. He has a sense for knowing when people need some extra comfort or a good laugh. If you want to visit with Gus or have him attend an event, please reach out to us!
When he’s not at the office with me, Gus lives a normal dog life. Some of his favorite activities are rolling in the grass, eating snow, and protecting everyone from squirrels.

Contract Therapist

Are you feeling stuck in your relationships or unsure about your career path? I specialize in working with individuals navigating the complexities of love, work, and meaning. Whether you're longing for deeper connection, searching for purpose, or feeling overwhelmed by life transitions, I'm here to walk alongside you as we make sense of where you are and envision where you'd like to go.
My approach is warm, relational, and rooted in collaboration. Clients often tell me they feel safe, deeply seen, and empowered in our work together. I draw from a blend of research-backed methods and intuitive insight to help you rewrite old narratives, heal emotional wounds, and reconnect with your inner wisdom. Together, we’ll explore the patterns that are no longer serving you and uncover what it means to live in alignment with your most authentic self.
Before entering the mental health field, I spent nearly a decade in public relations, focusing on the travel and wellness sectors. Though it may seem like a leap, that chapter taught me the power of storytelling, attuned listening, and the universal desire to feel understood, which are skills I bring into every session.
My work is influenced by the teachings of Carl Jung, Carl Rogers, Viktor Frankl, Irvin Yalom, Insoo Kim Berg, Esther Perel, Brene Brown, and others. I incorporate elements of attachment theory, existential exploration, parts work, and depth psychology to support your healing journey.
If you're ready to reconnect with your sense of purpose and create a life that feels truly aligned, I'd be honored to support you.
