Therapists for college students near University of Colorado Boulder

With nearly 15 years of experience as a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) and Licensed Addiction Counselor (LAC), I specialize in anxiety, depression, trauma recovery, substance use recovery, and life transitions. I support adults in creating meaningful change through a collaborative and strengths-based approach, helping you work through emotional challenges, relationship concerns, self-esteem struggles, and the process of healing from past experiences so you can develop greater self-compassion, resilience, and a deeper connection with yourself. I believe in the power of compassionate connection and each person's capacity for growth. That belief shapes how I show up: a supportive, authentic partner in your healing journey, walking alongside you as you gain insight, reconnect with your strengths, and create a life that feels more balanced, meaningful, and fulfilling. Creating a safe, nonjudgmental space where you feel heard, understood, and empowered is central to my work, as my goal is to help you build the self-awareness, resilience, and self-compassion needed to create lasting change. I'm passionate about helping you reconnect with yourself, and I see therapy as a journey of self-discovery, healing, and transformation, one that includes both deep emotional work and moments of hope, gratitude, and laughter. Together, we'll work toward an environment where you feel supported, valued, and understood as you build the tools you need. I use evidence-based, person-centered, and integrative therapy approaches to help you heal, grow, and develop those tools. My style is warm and authentic, and I tailor my approach to your unique needs, experiences, and goals, honoring that every individual's path to healing is different. My path to becoming a therapist began with a lifelong desire to understand, support, and help others through difficult seasons of life. Over the years, my experience working alongside individuals facing a variety of challenges has deepened my commitment to providing compassionate, person-centered care. Now, I’m honored to bring warmth, authenticity, and curiosity to each session, as I believe that healing happens through genuine connection and that a safe space allows you to be fully yourself while recognizing your strengths, resilience, and capacity to grow. Outside of work, I love spending time with friends and family, hiking, listening to music, learning to play the bass guitar, reading, exploring my creativity through painting and writing, and cherishing every moment with my beloved dog, Bodhi.

As a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC), I work with adolescents and adults navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, emotion regulation, substance use recovery, and life transitions. Many of the patients I see feel overwhelmed by these struggles and find themselves caught in unhealthy coping patterns, difficult relationships, or people-pleasing. Together, we focus on building healthier ways to cope. Lasting change, in my experience, happens when patients feel both supported and equipped with practical tools, and that belief shapes how I show up as a collaborative, goal-oriented partner in your growth. I look forward to helping you gain greater insight, develop healthier coping strategies, and create a life that feels more balanced and fulfilling. In our work together, you can expect a warm and supportive environment where I'm passionate about empowering you with the knowledge and tools you need to navigate life's challenges with greater confidence and resilience. I use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), motivational interviewing, and solution-focused therapy to help you build practical coping skills, improve emotion regulation, and create meaningful, lasting change. This approach is collaborative, practical, and evidence-based while being tailored to your unique needs and goals. My path to becoming a therapist began with working in inpatient and outpatient addiction treatment, helping patients navigate co-occurring mental health and substance use disorders. This experience deepened my commitment to providing compassionate, patient-centered care that balances validation with practical skill-building. Now, I bring warmth, curiosity, and a collaborative, goal-oriented perspective to each session, empowering patients to better understand themselves and develop the tools they need to thrive. Outside of work, I love spending time outdoors and staying active. Some of my favorite hobbies include skiing, mountain biking, rafting, wake surfing, water skiing, and golfing. These activities help me recharge and appreciate the time I spend in nature. I also enjoy watercolor painting and reading. Painting provides a creative outlet and a chance to slow down, while reading allows me to keep learning and unwind. My favorite books are on psychology, personal development, and fiction.

While certain seasons of life are difficult, they’re oftentimes the catalyst for remarkable self-growth. My goal as your therapist is to help you understand your unique lens and experience, so you can live your life with more intention, enjoyment, self-awareness, and alignment with your highest self. I specialize in helping you feel unstuck, so you can find the way back to a more connected, content, and embodied life. Whether you’re seeking therapy for anxiety, relationships, or a life transition, my warm, holistic approach provides a non-judgmental space to seek refuge, process, (dare I say, laugh?), and heal. We will work together to mindfully observe your patterns, dysregulation, self-limiting beliefs, and strengths, then find a path forward toward meaningful change. Committing to this transformational inner work is a big step, and it might take a few tries to find a therapist that feels aligned. If you’re curious about working together, let’s jump on a free 15-minute video consultation call. I’m happy to answer any questions you have and provide more insight about how I can best support your therapy goals.

I identify as a Togolese immigrant, daughter, sister, fur-mom, and wife in an interracial marriage. These identities influence how I show up as a therapist and constantly evolve each day. The challenges I have faced have given me both the insight and desire to work with individuals, couples, and families through their hurdles and to help them find what is and isn’t their story. I believe in the idea of assisting individuals, couples & families of different backgrounds to find their path instead of feeling stuck and tied down to societal expectations or their past maladaptive patterns. Due to the unique makeup of our world, I use an integrative approach with my clients; this allows me to use modalities that best suit the need of my clients. I value providing warmth, kindness, empathy, and directness when needed. I hope this little bio reflects my passion for working with humans of all different backgrounds and the depth of sacredness I hold for being a part of your stories.

You may look like you are holding it together, but inside you feel overwhelmed, exhausted, and tired of riding an emotional rollercoaster. Maybe anxiety, depression, trauma, or intense mood swings are making it hard to show up at work, in relationships, or even for yourself. If you feel like your emotions are too big, your thoughts race, or you keep repeating patterns that hurt you or the people you love, you are not alone. Together we can slow things down, make sense of what you are going through, and build skills that actually work in real life. I specialize in anxiety, trauma, depression, mood and personality disorders, relationship issues, and substance use. I use DBT, CBT, EMDR, and mindfulness based tools to help you reduce self blame, manage crises, set boundaries, and create steadier relationships with yourself and others.

My ideal clients are adolescents and young adults who are feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or unsure how to move forward. A lot of the people I work with are navigating anxiety, depression, life transitions, identity questions, or relationship challenges. I also work with children when play-based therapy feels like the best fit for helping them express what they’re going through. In our work together, my focus is on creating a space where you can show up as you are without judgment. I take a trauma-informed, strengths-based approach and often draw from DBT, CBT, Motivational Interviewing, and psychoeducation to help you better understand what you’re experiencing and build tools that actually fit your life. More than anything, I want therapy to feel like a place where things start to make more sense and feel more manageable over time.

My goal is to make starting therapy feel simple and welcoming.

I specialize in supporting individuals from Asian, Asian American, and multicultural backgrounds who navigate bicultural or multicultural experiences. Additionally, I work with individuals who identify as Highly Sensitive Persons (HSPs) or Empaths and have experienced childhood relational trauma. I offer contemplative somatic psychotherapy and coaching services. Contemplative somatic psychotherapy and coaching are integrative approaches that combine mindfulness, body-based practices, and talk therapy to explore the mind-body connection. This therapeutic method focuses on understanding how emotions and experiences are stored in the body and utilizes techniques to promote healing, self-awareness, and personal growth.

My expertise is in helping people change how they feel or behave using evidence-based therapy and guidance. I focus on building a trusting relationship in which you feel open to discuss and work on whatever aspects of your life that you are hoping to change. People tell me they quickly feel at ease talking with me. Together we assess what feelings, thoughts or behaviors you would like to change or feel differently about or how you would like a relationship to be different. We make goals together to guide this process. I then guide you on how to make these changes, sustain them, and assess when you have attained them.

You don't need a crisis to reach out. Maybe anxiety is running the show more than you'd like. Maybe a transition, a change in direction, a decision you're not sure how to make, has thrown you off balance. Maybe you just need somewhere to unload without other people's opinions weighing in on it. I also work with people looking at their relationship with alcohol or substances, whether that means active (mis)use or just a feeling that it's worth a closer look. Sessions are practical and conversational. I keep things straightforward and focused on what's really going on with you.
