As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) and Licensed Addiction Counselor (LAC), my philosophy of care is rooted in a holistic and client-centered approach, recognizing the uniqueness of each individual’s journey. I believe in creating a safe, non-judgmental space where clients can explore their thoughts, emotions and experiences. My approach is integrative, utilizing various therapeutic modalities to best meet the needs of each client, including Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Narrative Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT). Specializing in trauma and addiction, I am dedicated to helping clients navigate the complexities of these challenges, fostering resilience and empowerment. Through collaborative and compassionate care, I strive to support clients in developing healthier coping mechanisms, reshaping their narratives, and achieving meaningful, lasting change.
Originally from Mississippi, I came to Colorado for graduate school and decided to stay for the beautiful mountains and endless adventure opportunities. In my free time, I enjoy rock climbing, reading, knitting/crocheting, and gardening. I love the challenge of knitting a sweater almost as much as I love the thrill of scaling a rock face – though I must admit, the yarn is much more forgiving!
