My Approach to Therapy

I am a Licensed Master Social Worker offering in-person services for adults struggling with addiction, religious or faith-based trauma, and co-occurring mental health concerns, including anxiety therapy, depression therapy, grief therapy, and trauma therapy. I earned my bachelors degree in psychology from Metropolitan State University of Denver and my masters degree in social work from Texas Tech University. Im currently working toward clinical social work licensure. I have years of experience helping people with substance use challenges and co-occurring mental health concerns in both inpatient and outpatient settings. I use a humanistic approach to therapy, primarily focusing on cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) and mindfulness. I believe in working with my clients to create an individualized treatment plan that supports them in building their best life, a life of peace, love, and joy. I love helping people create and tap into their true potential in a safe, judgment-free space. In my free time, I spend time with my wife and daughter. I love motorcycles. I have been riding since I was 14 years old. I also love the outdoors and connecting with nature in various ways. I love flowers and plants. My ideal office would be inside a tropical greenhouse. I also love bees and beekeeping, pit bulls, laughing, and connecting authentically with others.
