Issues: Relationship issues, Anxiety, grief, life transition
“The wound is the place where the Light enters you.” – Rumi
I’m Christian, a Marriage and Family Therapist committed to walking alongside you through life’s transitions and challenges. I work with couples, families, individuals, and children/teens, with a special focus on young adults (ages 17-35) navigating major life changes such as starting college, entering a new career, relationship struggles, or dealing with loss. In addition to these transitions, I also address a range of other issues, including stress, anxiety, depression and family issues. I know firsthand the weight of anxiety, grief, and relational issues, and I offer a warm, inclusive environment where you can explore, grow, and heal.
A Transformative Moment
A few years ago, I had the privilege of working with a high school student who had never known stability. He was grappling with social anxiety and deep depression, and our sessions were a journey toward finding hope. After months of hard work and gradual improvement, he shared a profound realization with me: “This is the first time I have ever been happy.” That moment crystallized my dedication to this work—knowing that even in the darkest times, change is not just possible, it is achievable.
When I’m not working, I find joy in baking sourdough bread, exploring the Colorado outdoors, camping, and playing sports with friends and family. These activities bring balance and joy to my life, keeping me grounded and connected.

My Unique Approach
Every individual’s path to healing is distinct, which is why I take a deeply personalized approach to therapy. By understanding your unique experiences and goals, I create a supportive environment that meets you where you are. But my commitment doesn’t end with empathy—I’m dedicated to helping you achieve concrete, meaningful results. Together, we’ll develop a clear action plan tailored to your needs, focusing on practical steps and measurable progress. My aim is to guide you through a transformative process that not only addresses your immediate concerns but also equips you with the tools to thrive long-term.
Training and Expertise
My foundation in counseling is complemented by specialized training in Restoration Therapy, where I help couples rebuild trust and emotional connection through guided conversations. I am also pursuing certifications in the Gottman Method and Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) to expand my ability to support you. Currently, I am completing my Master’s Degree in Marriage and Family Therapy under the supervision of Rob Reynolds, which keeps me at the forefront of cutting-edge knowledge and techniques.
What to Expect in Our Sessions
Clients often describe me as warm, approachable, and deeply empathetic. My relaxed nature helps create an environment where you can feel comfortable and understood from the start, while also allowing me to easily connect with kids and teens. I strive to foster a nonjudgmental space where you can openly share your story and who you are while working toward meaningful goals. If you’re aiming to find relief from anxiety, strengthen your relationships, or move through a new chapter in life, I’m here to offer steady support and help you gain clarity as you move forward.
A Core Belief
I believe in the infinite value of every person and the power of growth, no matter where you’re starting from. My own journey through loss—having lost my father to cancer when I was just eight years old and my sister to suicide five years later—has profoundly shaped my understanding of support and resilience. These experiences have taught me how crucial it is to have someone by your side during life’s toughest moments. I am here to walk alongside you with compassion, understanding, and hope, helping you navigate your path to healing and light. I recognize that none of us are perfect, and that we all benefit from empathy and guidance. My commitment is to help you find your way, believing firmly that everyone has the capacity for growth and positive change.
