With a Ph.D. in Clinical Psychology and a M.A. in Counseling Psychology, two coaching certifications, and decades of experience, I do my best to offer clients a comprehensive blend of psychology and coaching. My work is attachment theory based, trauma informed, experiential, somatic and integrative.

My dissertation research was on Conscious Intimate Relationship. I am a Licensed Psychologist (PSY-3991) and a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC-5464) in the state of Colorado and I am a member of ICEEFT.

With advanced training in EFT (Emotionally Focused Therapy), I implement the principles into my coaching work with couples. What I love most about this modality is that it is:

Researched based
Emotionally focused (which provides a safe, caring, empathetic therapeutic space to clients)
Experiential (accesses present experience and gives an opportunity to repattern and incorporate corrective experience that contribute to new learning relationally)
