Founder and Executive Director of https://therapeuticalliancehealth.com.

I am a Clinical Social Worker licensed in the state of New York, Colorado, and Tennessee. I hold over 10 years of experience and have have worked in the field of psychology at numerous levels and with diverse populations. I gained experience in both the mental health and medical health fields while assisting and providing support to individuals, families, and couples, from early adulthood to late adulthood.

I know that reaching out for help can feel daunting, and I truly admire your courage in taking this step toward better mental wellness. As a Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner who cares deeply about mental health, I'm here to offer you a warm, safe, and supportive space where you can comfortably share your experiences and challenges.

Life is full of ups and downs, and I have learned from both personal and professional experience that 'suffering in silence' is not really sustainable or healthy for anyone. You deserve to feel heard and to function at your best level. I have 6 years' experience post-graduation from the University of Texas with helping folks do just that. From nonprofits, to medical clinics, to correctional facilities, to teletherapy, I have connected deeply and partnered with many clients and families to trudge through some of their darkest hours and find more validation, calmness, and acceptance. My fluency in Spanish has given me opportunities to break down walls and connect with hundreds of clients whose cultural background is different than mine. I would be honored to have the chance to see if working together is a good fit for your healing journey.

Hello! I am a licensed mental health professional dedicated to helping individuals navigate life’s challenges with greater clarity, balance, and confidence. My approach is compassionate, collaborative, and grounded in evidence-based practices, with the goal of creating a safe and supportive space where clients feel heard, seen, respected, and empowered.

I earned my degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from the University of Colorado, in Colorado Springs and have 7 years of experience working with individuals from diverse backgrounds. Throughout my career, I have worked in non profits, community clinics and private practices supporting clients through a wide range of emotional and psychological concerns.

I specialize in working with adults struggling with anxiety, depression, life transitions, relational issues, grief, self-esteem, women and survivors of Domestic Violence

My therapeutic style integrates CBT, TF-CBT, Psychodynamic therapy, mindfulness, and trauma informed care. I tailor treatment to meet each client’s unique needs and goals.

I believe that meaningful change happens when clients feel understood and supported. Whether you are seeking help for a specific concern or looking to better understand yourself, I am committed to walking alongside you on your path toward growth and healing.

I started out working in college sports as a trainer and eventually began consulting with athletes and coaches after graduate school. My career path later took me through 10 years with an ambulance service, 2 years as a community service officer and 4 years as a crisis counselor embedded with a police department. I've also spent a considerable amount of time teaching psychology as a college professor. Because of this rather unique skill set, I have a heart for athletes, rescue workers and students.

My primary focus is working with adolescents, families, and adults, though I have a range of experience working with people of all ages and many different demographics. In particular, I have a strong background in working with at-risk youth, kinship caregivers, and foster/adoptive families. I also have a background of working with young adults transitioning to independent living, as well as adults of all ages.

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in Colorado, and have been practicing as a therapist since 2022. Prior to this, I worked with youth, adults, and families in a variety of case management roles, including in schools, domestic violence shelters, shelters for those without housing, and families experiencing various systems involvement. This has given me an understanding of the many challenges life can bring, and equipped me with the tools to support you in navigating various barriers and difficulties.

I have a particular passion for working with issues of grief and loss. I believe in a whole-person approach to therapy and life and strive to help my clients achieve balance and build resiliency in facing shame. I have been providing therapy since 2011, working with individuals, families, couples, and students in community mental health settings, education, and private practice environments.
