Standing at the Threshold
There’s a moment before we step forward—before we cross into something new—where we hesitate. Not because we don’t want to move, but because we feel the weight of the step.
Maybe you’ve felt it before. That pause before an important conversation. The quiet just before a decision is made. The stillness between who you were and who you are becoming.
Thresholds are everywhere. Some are loud and obvious—a new job, a relationship beginning or ending, grief, healing. Others are subtle—a shift in the way you see yourself, the moment you realize you’re ready for something more.
Therapy exists in this space. Not to rush you through it, but to stand beside you as you decide what comes next. To make room for uncertainty and help you trust yourself in the process.
So if you find yourself standing at a threshold right now—unsure, hopeful, hesitant, ready—know this: You don’t have to do it alone.
Welcome in.

About Me
There’s something about the in-between places—the moments when life feels like it’s shifting beneath your feet. Those are the spaces I’m drawn to, the ones I feel honored to sit with my clients in.
I earned my Master’s in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Colorado Christian University, with an emphasis in Marriage and Family Therapy. My work centers on people navigating life’s transitions, relationships, and self-expression. I love working with couples and individuals who are asking big questions about themselves, their relationships, and their place in the world.
I have a deep passion for neurodivergent and highly sensitive people, those who often feel like they’re trying to exist in a world that wasn’t built for them. Together, we explore what it means to embrace yourself fully—not just to survive, but to thrive.
For couples, I draw from Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) and Gottman Method Therapy, helping partners understand each other with deeper compassion, connection, and clarity. My goal is always to create a space where you feel seen, supported, and empowered to step forward—wherever forward may be for you.
I’d love to have the honor to walk alongside you in this part of your journey.
What Therapy Is Really Like (For You & For Me)
Walking through the door to therapy—whether it’s your first session or your fiftieth—can feel like stepping into the unknown. You might wonder: Am I going to say the right thing? Will this actually help? What is my therapist even thinking while I’m talking?
I get it. So let’s talk about what therapy is really like—for both of us.
What Therapy Is Like for You
Therapy isn’t about having the perfect words or knowing exactly where to start. You don’t have to come in with a structured plan. In fact, most people arrive feeling a little tangled—unsure of how to put their experiences into words, but carrying the weight of them just the same. That’s where we begin.
You can expect a space where you are not judged, not rushed, and not expected to perform. This is a space where you can exhale. Some days, that might mean breakthroughs and clarity. Other days, it might mean sitting in the hard stuff, working through emotions that don’t have neat resolutions. Both are important.
I won’t promise easy answers, because real change takes time. But what I can promise is a steady place to land and a guide to walk beside you.
What Therapy Is Like for Me
People often wonder what therapists are thinking during a session. The truth? I’m right there with you—fully present, noticing patterns, gently holding space for the things you may not even realize you’re carrying yet. I don’t sit in silence, nodding and taking notes in some secret therapist code. Therapy with me is conversational, collaborative, and human.
I think deeply about the things you bring into the room. I consider how past experiences might be shaping your present. I look for themes, for the ways your story connects, for what’s unsaid as much as what is spoken. And I care—genuinely, deeply—about your progress, your pain, and your healing.
What You Can Expect
A space that feels safe, but not stagnant. We move at your pace, but we also move forward.
A process that isn’t linear. Some sessions will feel like clarity, others like confusion. Both are part of the journey.
Real connection. This is not a cold, clinical transaction. This is human-to-human work.
A partnership. Therapy is not me handing you answers; it’s us working together to help you understand yourself in new ways.
Stepping into therapy is stepping toward yourself. It’s choosing to look inward, to give yourself the time, care, and space you deserve. And if you’re reading this, you’re already taking the first step.
