Finally…someone who just tells it like it is.  

Avoidance is a superpower of yours and you’ve been nailing it for a long time. 

You’re kicking ass at it. And it’s been serving a purpose. 

And at the same time…you’re here, on my webpage, hoping that you and I can dig into your other superpowers and put the avoidance to rest. Put the discomfort to rest. 

You’re basically a badass human.

Because you know deep down, you’re basically a badass human being, ready to do all the things that are on your dream list. 

Like do that backflip at the trampoline park, speak up at that staff meeting (or at least whisper), travel, transition…tell your aunt that you prefer “they/them” pronouns, go for that job that you keep talking yourself out of, wear what you want to wear, be ok with the friendships that come and go, heal from the trauma…

…and to just see your life unfold exactly how you pictured it, but with way less fear, way less anxiety, and a heck of a lot more support and healing along the way. 

With me, right alongside you.

Whether you want to get to the root of what's going on and do some deeper healing with EMDR, make some serious changes with social anxiety, or get some major support, guidance, and perspective through therapy as a queer person…

…I got you. 

With some dry humor, a sprinkle of sarcasm, a dollop of realness, and a mega dose of expertise coming at you to do some major healing in your life.

You’ve come to the right place. You can feel less stuck and move forward.

My Specialties

Queer Focused, Social Anxiety, and EMDR Therapy

Virtual anywhere in Colorado

EMDR

You’re feeling stuck and the progress just isn’t happening. And maybe this is because of past traumas (tiny, small, medium, big…any size traumas) and maybe you’re just stuck in anxiety right now, or negative thoughts and beliefs about yourself. This is seriously one of the best tools to help you get unstuck and to finally get some relief. Seriously, you’re going to want to check this out. 

Social Anxiety

Let’s use some specific techniques and methods to get you out and about, living your best life (or close to it) and not just sitting in the dark with your cat, thinking about all the things you could be doing, but are talking yourself out of. A more rich and laughter-inducing life is possible, and session after session can add up to just that. 

Queer Focused

Identifying as queer is not a problem. It’s not a pathology. This is all about a focus on this awesome part of who you are with a safe place to do the healing, feel more at peace and sift through relationships, careers, transitions, social justice, any of it. With me. Someone who also identifies as queer and is 100% here to support the shit out of you.
