Professional Background

I hold a Bachelor’s Degree in Social Work from Bowling Green State University, Ohio, in 1987, followed by a Master’s Degree in Social Work from the University of Denver, Colorado, in 1991, and became licensed in 1993. I have been trained in EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) Therapy since 2012, including specialization in epigenetic and cultural trauma. Additionally, I am the co-owner of Collaborative Services for Change, an outpatient mental health agency that offers expertise in the treatment of adults who are impacted by Intellectual and Developmental Disabilities.  Prior to my private practice, I worked in a variety of settings, including: residential; day treatment and outpatient treatment agencies for youth; various county child welfare systems with specific focus on childhood sexual abuse and foster-adoptive care; victim compensation services; and the criminal justice system.

​

Effective 2023, I became Certified in Ketamine Assisted Psychotherapy, providing services in collaboration with local prescribers. In 2024 I earned my Certification as a Psychedelic Assisted Psychotherapist, completing a year-long intensive training with Integrative Psychiatry Institute. Effective March 2025, I have earned Licensure in Clinical Psilocybin Facilitation for therapeutic purposes. I am now offering Psilocybin Assisted Psychotherapy (including both Preparation and Integration Therapy), in conjunction with approved Healing Centers in the Denver metro area.

​

My training and theoretical framework has been built around Family Systems Therapy, Attachment Theory, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Internal Family Systems Therapy, and Solution-Based Therapy, in addition to providing Trauma-informed Modalities, inclusive of recent findings in the field of neuroscience, EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) Therapy, and Mindfulness.
