I provide nurturing therapy and wellness services for women, children and families in the Parker, Colorado area. My specialty is working with children and their mothers, supporting them to understand one another and grow together, feeling connected each and every day. I’m trained in EMDR and specialize in working with children and adults with trauma, providing Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing with an attachment and somatic approach to facilitate healing after trauma. In addition, I am a certified yoga teacher and use yoga, mindfulness and meditation to address numerous mental health concerns.
I provide play-based therapy with sand tray play interventions while utilizing the Neurosequential Model of Therapeutics to direct my counseling with kids with: ADHD, Depression, Anxiety, Adjustment Disorders, and other Mood Disorders.
In 2018, I completed training and attunement as a Reiki Master and became a Certified Crystal Healer. In early 2019, I became certified in AcuDetox (ear acupuncture specifically for stress reduction, addiction, and trauma). By incorporating energetic healing modalities into my wellness work, I became truly healing-centered in my approach.
I regularly contribute to online and print publications on the topics of parenthood, mental health and overall wellness. Lately, I’ve been blessed to have been featured on Ravishly and The Good Men Project.
In addition to my clinical and written work, I speak in front of audiences small and large about motherhood, mental health, family balance, body love and eating disorder recovery. From keynote speeches to hour-long workshops, I incorporate humor, wisdom and my special brand of sass when approaching some serious subjects in need of attention.
I’m also founder of High Vibrational Healers which provides training and consultation to therapists and wellness professionals so that they too may incorporate the metaphysical into their clinical and coaching work.
My first book, “2 Under 2 Pregnancy and Parenthood,” was released in 2013 and reached a high of #2 on the Amazon Bestseller list in the Parenting category. I am also the co-founder of Peachie Moms, a resource to support mothers on their journey toward body love and emotional wellness. With Peachie Moms, I released my second book, “The Peachie Moms Guide to Body Love for Moms“. I couldn’t feel more blessed to be able to do what I do for a living and am grateful to touch so many with my work.
