About My Clients
I bring a trauma focused lens to my work with clients and can meet them where they are at in their life currently. We go at your pace and I know the importance of going slow in therapy as we often work on very difficult and sensitive topics. I primarily work with stress and trauma and how this can show up and impact our mood, sleep and ability to connect with others. In addition to multiple trauma trainings I am licensed to work with addiction as well.
My Background and Approach
I am an LCSW and LAC and am licensed to see clients in CO and IN. I am trained in EMDR and Somatic Experiencing and bring both of these styles into practice with most of my clients. I have found these trauma focused therapies allow me to connect with and process with clients in a different way than typical talk therapy and have seen many people make huge leaps in their own healing over time. I am also bilingual in Spanish/English and enjoy working with people in their native language as this can help process more effectively as well.
My Personal Beliefs and Interests
Even before becoming a social worker I felt very strongly about social justices issues and the environment. I went to local protests in high school and was often writing letters to my school principal to advocate about one issue or another. I worked in community mental health and community health centers for many years prior to starting my private practice and believe these are much needed areas that continue to need support. I offer pro bono or very low cost services to the community when I am able as I believe it is important to continue to support the communities we live in.
