 NOTE: Google Maps has correct driving directions to my office, and at times marks the location to be WEST of Broadway and not East. Please note.

I graduated from Naropa University with my Masters in Counseling Psychology. I have a clinical focus on children and family systems.  I have facilitated psychotherapy groups for 'at risk' teens at a private high school in Boulder as well as groups of women struggling with addiction and motherhood.

During my internship, I worked at Access Counseling, where the majority of my clients were children, adolescents and their families.  Many of the children I have worked with, and currently work with, have regulatory dysfunction and/or learning disabilities, are living with divorce, or are adopted , displaying 'oppositional' behavior', .attachment issues and attention differences. Many are affected by autism spectrum disorders. 

Additional psychology training I have received during my career includes experiential/ child-led play therapy, Theraplay model of play therapy, Mindfulness practice, Addictions training, CBT, Family Systems, Pre-perinatal education, attachment training using a brain-based model of trauma and child development, equine-assisted psychotherapy, Sensorimotor models of treatment, Filial play therapy  for attachment work within the family system and/or parent-child, and Sandplay therapy.  I am in the process of receiving additional training and course work at UMASS in becoming a certified Autism Specialist.

Should the need arise, I am available to attend IEP meetings at schools, as well as assist and coach parents on parenting technique, conduct filial play therapy sessions (caregiver/child bond), parent individual therapy, sibling sessions. I also offer resources on child development and family system dynamics.     ible, RPT

On a personal note.... I have two sons, ages 11 and 7.  We are connected with the greater Waldorf community and the greater ASD community. I am a member of Healing Voices, a women's choir of therapists in Boulder County. I love to sing, and will often use music therapy technique when I work with child musicians, or those for whom voice and singing is healing and furthers self/vocal expression and healthy individuation. Art Therapy technique is also used at times, with similar goals.

My older son is diagnosed with Asperger's Syndrome.  As a parent of two children with attention differences and unique elements of genius, creativity, as well as some significant social and learning challenges, I use this added perspective to enhance the work I do with child clients and am able to resource families in my psychotherapy private practice.
