My Approach to Helping

I have provided psychotherapy in the Westminster and Arvada area since 1998 for adults experiencing Stress and Anxiety related concerns such as Panic Attacks, GAD (Generalized Anxiety Disorder), Phobias (like Agoraphobia and Specific Phobias), PTSD (Post Traumatic Stress Disorder) and Fearfulness. I use a Mindfulness Based Cognitive Behavioral Therapy approach. I also work with individuals experiencing a wide variety of other concerns such as Depression, Grief & Loss, Life Transitions, Women's Issues, and Spiritual concerns, including Atheism, Agnosticism and Secular questioning.

Anticipatory Anxiety is not uncommon when considering psychotherapy. Therefore, my counseling environment is geared for relaxation and anxiety reduction so that you can feel safe in getting the help you need.

Theoretical Influences that Guide My Work

I like to focus on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Mindfulness Based Therapy in order to help individuals recognize their faulty beliefs and unhelpful thinking styles. These techniques also help people learn ways to try to stay in the present moment in order to prevent being stuck in the past or excessively worried about the future.
