I specialize in eating disorders, anxiety disorders, life transitions, and adult ADHD. From my work experience in a variety of mental health and addictions clinics (Eating Disorder Center of Denver, now called Eating Recovery Center, Boulder County Addiction Recovery Center, Kaiser Permanente), and in my own recovery journey, I use the most recent, practical, and research-based approaches to counseling in a kind and caring way. You will leave each session with clear goals and a related action activity/“homework”.

I am a licensed and certified therapist, wife, mother, sister, daughter, friend, and pet mom. Boulder, Colorado is where I have called home for many years, since moving from the east coast (New Jersey, Maryland, Massachusetts). I enjoy kayaking, yoga, going to the movies, hiking with my dog, local art shows, thrifting, cross country skiing, celebrity gossip, distance swimming, baking bread, and reading/napping with my cats. I have been in solid recovery from an eating disorder for more than 25 years, and this challenging mental health journey has most certainly influenced how I am inspired to help others. My clients share that my personal experience helps them to feel more fully understood and trusting in our therapy partnership.
