Overview

You’ve always shown up—for your people, your causes, your community.
But lately, the weight feels heavier.
You’re tired. Worn thin.
Wondering how to keep going without losing yourself.

You’re grieving the loss of ideals.
Disheartened by systems you once believed in.
Watching others go about their day like nothing’s wrong—while you see the man behind the curtain and feel it all.

This isn’t full-on burnout, but the signs are there: the fatigue, the dimmed spark, the questioning.

You don’t have to wait to ask for support.
Your work is a marathon, not a sprint—and you deserve care, too.
Let’s help you keep going—together.

I specialize in supporting changemakers, neurospicy creatives, and LGBTQIA+ folks who care deeply—and carry a lot. I offer in-person therapy in Colorado Springs and online across Colorado. Using IFS, EMDR, DBT, and expressive arts, I help you reconnect with yourself, process what’s heavy, and build a more sustainable way forward.

No more pushing through. No more pretending you’re fine.
This is a space to slow down, to feel what’s real, and finally exhale.

You are not too much. You are not broken. You are worthy of care—not just for what you do, but for who you are.

I’d be honored to walk this journey with you.
Let’s get started—schedule your free 20-minute consultation today.
