About
I strive to create a warm, collaborative space where you feel understood and supported, and where we can work together to turn insight into practical, meaningful change in your daily life.
I am a licensed psychologist (Ph.D.) with 9 years of experience providing therapy to adults and couples. I specialize in treating mood and anxiety disorders, including depression, anxiety, relationship concerns, life transitions, and stress. Many of the clients I work with are seeking a deeper understanding of their thoughts and behavior patterns so they can create meaningful, lasting change. I help them clarify their values and take practical, actionable steps toward becoming who they want to be.
I earned my doctorate in clinical psychology from The Chicago School of Professional Psychology and have specialized experience in adult individual and couples therapy. I primarily utilize acceptance and commitment therapy and cognitive behavioral therapy, while integrating humanistic, values-based approaches.
You deserve a fulfilling life, and I am here to help you move toward it. If you are feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or held back by self-doubt, we can work together to build insight, challenge unhelpful beliefs, and create forward momentum. When you are ready, I invite you to schedule a session and begin the process of meaningful change.

Cannabis use disorder counseling from our Thriveworks therapists in Westminster can help people manage their urges to use cannabis. In addition, it can help people manage the challenges that stem from their cannabis use disorder, from relationship issues to problems at work, as well as those that their disorder may stem from, like trauma.
Cannabis use disorder counseling works by helping one understand the underlying causes of their disorder, teaching them coping strategies, and recognizing their specific triggers. Long-term or ongoing cannabis use disorder counseling can also help to prevent relapse.
Cannabis use disorder counseling at Thriveworks Westminster, CO is conducted both in person and online by video. We encourage you to choose the option that works best for you.
The length of cannabis use disorder counseling in Westminster depends on the individual’s needs, the extent and severity of their disorder, and the problems that might stem from it. That said, people can make meaningful progress in cannabis use disorder counseling in the first weeks to months.
Many people use weed legally and effectively, but some do not. Some people find themselves using it more often and in greater quantities than they ever intended. Some people have trouble quitting or curbing their use. Some people understandably need professional support as they quit using cannabis. The therapists at Thriveworks in Westminster, CO treat cannabis use disorder and have helped many people detox from and live without weed. If you need help, reach out to Thriveworks Westminster today.
the official definition of cannabis use disorder (CUD) comes from the DSM-5: use of pot regularly for a minimum of one year while also experiencing a loss of functioning and an increase in life disruptions. The lack of functioning and increase in disruptions may show themselves through at least two of the following symptoms:
The DSM-5 lists several factors that may increase a person’s risk for CUD. These include:
The body stores THC, the psychoactive compound in cannabis, in its fat cells. Cleaning the body of THC can take longer than if it were water-soluble. Detoxing can take a while. People often experience challenges when they curb or quit weed. Treatment for CUD has helped many people overcome those challenges.
Therapy can equip people with coping strategies for overcoming withdrawal symptoms and living without weed. Often, people are overwhelmed with vivid dreams and intense emotions after they quit cannabis, and a therapist can guide people on effective strategies for handling these. Therapy may also allow people to explore any negative experiences or emotions that led them to begin using cannabis. Through counseling, people may be able to resolve those experiences and emotions in a healthy way.
If you feel like it’s time to quit or curb your cannabis use, know that Thriveworks Westminster has counselors who are experienced with treating CUD and are ready to help. We make evening and weekend appointments available, and we work with many insurance plans. Are you ready to treat your CUD? Let’s get started. Call today.
