About Me​​​

I built my practice to be a soft landing spot for women and LGBTQ+ individuals navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, and complex family dynamics. If this sounds like you, you are in the right place.

​

Over the past decade of working one-on-one with clients, I have developed signature healing groups—such as Transcending Trauma and Adulting After Dysfunky—because I deeply believe that we heal the same way we are hurt: in relationship.

​

Beyond our sessions, I am committed to your growth. I actively maintain an extensive, curated resource network of books, podcasts, articles, clinical handouts, and trusted specialists who uniquely understand the needs of trauma survivors.

Professional Experience

I obtained my Bachelor's of Fine Arts from Smith College in Northampton, Massachusetts, where I focused on the study of women and gender through the lens of fine art portrait photography. After college, I worked as a writer, artist, and preschool teacher at several Montessori schools here in Athens and in the Chicago, Illinois area before moving to Boulder, Colorado to complete my graduate education in Transpersonal Counseling Psychology at Naropa University. As a Buddhist inspired institution, my studies at Naropa included intensive training in mindfulness meditation in addition to the standard clinical practicum and internship hours in the field. My formal education was enhanced by my volunteering and working at an established human rights organization, Safehouse Progressive Alliance for Nonviolence, for the duration of my master's program. I honed my approach while working as an associate counselor at The Banyan Tree here in town before opening my practice, Many Colors Counseling, where I have been seeing clients like you since 2016.
