I work with you to uncover the stressors, causes of discomfort, and distractions that lead to a sense of disempowerment and further act as barriers to unlocking your potential in all areas of life.

WELCOME! I'm so glad you're here. Many of the people I work with are adults who’ve carried more than their fair share — the ones who look capable on the outside but feel anxious or disconnected on the inside. They've usually spent years masking ADHD/AuDHD, are deeply sensitive, and/or are trying to heal from complex trauma (CPTSD). If this sounds like you, I want you to know you're not alone, and you don’t have to keep trying to “figure it out” by yourself. I won’t hand you a checklist or tel...
You're fed up with regretting so many things you've done and said, replaying the past in your head, always worrying about your future, not believing you're lovable or good enough, & not showing up the way you need to with your partner and friends. You're worried your therapist won't really understand your life, maybe you've already had some that didn't. You need to stop spinning your wheels and figure out what's actually going to create the lasting change you've been grasping for. You need a the...

Danielle believes that even the most painful or confusing parts of us often have protective purposes—and that those parts deserve curiosity, not ...

Maybe you feel like you're not in the driver's seat of your life anymore. Or y...
Hi! I’m so glad you’re here. For the “weirdos,” “misfits,” seekers and dreamers. The people who find solace in books, music, and intimate conversations. Who deeply feel there is something more or a better world possible. For people who feel both at home and alone in solitude. You’re not wrong for holding contradictions and it makes sense if the world feels at times both too heavy to bear and so full of magic and wonder. I invite you into this space to get more in touch with your feelin...

I am originally from California, but have called Colorado (Denver) my home for the last thirteen years. While I do miss the ocean, I love being in the mountains and all they have to offer. When I am not working, I am often playing in my garden, doing something in the kitchen, spending time with friends and family, or traveling. I am the same person during session as I am outside of session; laid back, a little goofy, genuinely curious about others’ lives, and compassionate. I use she/her pronou...

I work best with college and graduate students who are carrying a lot on their shoulders, even if it doesn’t always show on the outside. Many of the students I support are struggling with anxiety, stress, or burnout. They may be navigating big life transitions like starting college, transferring, or getting close to graduation. Some are dealing with family stress, relationsh...
Being in college or graduate school often means navigating big transitions, shifting relationships, academic pressure, identity exploration, and uncertainty about the future. You may look like you’re holding it together on the outside while feeling overwhelmed, anxious, disconnected, or stuck on the inside. My role is not to “fix” you, but to help you reconnect with your own capacity to heal and grow. The coping strategies that helped you survive earlier seasons of life may no longer be servi...
The intake process typically spans about four sessions, during which the emphasis is on assessing the compatibility between you and me. This initial stage is crucial as we establish a foundation for our therapeutic alliance and become acquainted with each other. A central element of my practice involves being fully present during our sessions and attuned to nonverbal cues. I listen to not only what you are saying but how you are feeling in the moment. I encourage you to observe and share your e...
