Connect with Art Therapy in Fort Collins, CO

I like to use a client-centered approach using an integrative model with cognitive behavioral, internal family systems, and somatic tools to help ease the nervous system so that true healing can begin. I have experience treating depression, anxiety, trauma, divorce, family issues, and more.

I am an art therapist, psychotherapist, and visual artist. In my practice, I combine a wide range of therapeutic techniques with my creative background. What illuminates my practice is the deep belief that the past does not define who we are but teaches us who we want to become.

I believe you’re the expert in your life (even when it doesn’t feel like it). And while parts of you may believe you’re broken or need fixing, the truth is you’ve probably been trying to force yourself into systems that weren't built for how your brain actually works.

My approach to therapy is person-centered and trauma-informed. Each person is unique and their treatment is personalized to their needs.

Getting started with therapy is an important step toward positive change. I aim to meet you where you are, create a safe space for growth, and provide supportive therapy tailored to you and your family. If your child is experiencing changes in behavior, mood, or functioning at home or school, or you're facing parenting challenges, I'm here to help.

I want to hear your story, your thoughts, feelings, and how you make meaning of your experience and relationships. This way, I can walk with and empower you to better manage stressors and improve satisfaction in your relationships and quality of life. I'm here to support you in taking the steps towards a more fulfilling and resilient lifestyle.

If you are ready to explore your healing path and find your inner wisdom, book an appointment with me. Every person has wisdom that brings you toward clarity, resilience, and well-being. Sometimes we might need help to uncover our better natures and find the way to move forward in life.

I use evidence-based treatments to help individuals construct meaningful narratives from their distress and shape recovery. My research explores trauma and resilience, coping among immigrant survivors, prolonged grief, and geriatric functioning. I hope to support you in making sense of your experiences.

I find joy in creativity, compassion, and connection with people, animals, and the natural world. Art has always been a deep passion—whether painting, drawing, or exploring new mediums, it's how I express what words sometimes can't. I thrive on helping others and believe small acts of kindness create big ripples.

Welcome, I’m so glad you’re here! My practice is rooted in compassion and empowerment, where you can explore your experiences at your own pace and feel supported in working toward your goals. My approach integrates evidence-based therapies with a focus on helping you build insight, balance, and resilience.

Feeling overwhelmed, unseen, or misunderstood? Longing for a space where you can be your fullest self? My clients often receive messaging that they are "too much" or "too sensitive." I am here to help you recognize your inherent goodness, to celebrate your complexity, and to embrace all parts of you--both shadows and light.

Starting therapy can feel like a big step, and I'm here to make sure it's meaningful to you. I specialize in working with individuals navigating life transitions, anxiety, depression, and trauma. I take a client-centered, collaborative approach, tailoring each session to your unique needs and goals.

If you’re feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or carrying more than you should alone, you’re not the only one. I work with teens and adults navigating anxiety, trauma, depression, and relationship challenges using compassionate, evidence-based approaches. Together we’ll build tools for balance and growth. When you’re ready, I’m here to support you.

Clients say I combine empathy with proven tools for creating a thriving life. I was drawn to become a therapist after seeing how early patterns of thinking and behavior could loop people into distress. A dear friend's struggle with anxiety showed me how practical skills could change someone's daily life.

Welcome. Whether you're struggling with anxiety, navigating past trauma, or facing a significant life transition, I am here to offer support, perspective, and guidance. Together, we can work toward healing, growth, and a deeper sense of well-being. If you would like to learn more, please reach out to begin your healing journey.
