Greetings! My name is

MA, LPCC
If you're reading this, I'm glad you're here.
I'm a highly sensitive woman and Gestalt therapist who has an undying curiosity about the diversity of humankind and the spectrum of human experience. I have a great love for the earth, and for animals, and I was born and raised in the mountains of Boulder, CO. I feel a kinship to the trees, connect to life through music and art, and care deeply for social justice.
My primary treatment approach is Gestalt, which is a present centered, relational practice that attends to the whole person in their living field, including sensation, emotion, relationship, and environment. This work is oriented towards meeting who and how we already are, rather than trying to force change. So many sensitive people are taught that our sensitivity is wrong or is something to be fixed. I approach sensitivity as a doorway into an experiential world of each client, uniquely.

how i got here:
I have always been sensitive, and my own neurodivergence was identified later in life. As a result of social camouflaging and masking tendencies, and the depression, anxiety, and self-doubt associated with late-identification, I genuinely did not know if there would be any other way for me to exist, or if I would ever be able to feel good in my own body. It was through non-conventional therapeutic treatment that I found new ways to embrace my true nature, and was inspired to do this work professionally.
My education background includes a bachelor's degree in Environmental Studies in 2017, and earning my master's degree in Mindfulness-based Transpersonal Counseling in 2024. I have formal post-graduate training and certification in Gestalt therapy from the Gestalt Institute of the Rockies, as well as formal training in Neurodivergent Somatics.
I deeply value providing support to sensitive individuals with their own process of personal becoming and emergence through therapeutic work. It is with utmost respect and gratitude that I get to walk alongside my clients doing this work. If this resonates with you, I would love to meet, and see if we are a good fit.
