As an EMDR specialist, I guide clients through reprocessing distressing memories, reducing their emotional intensity, and integrating them in a way that promotes long-term stability and growth. My approach goes beyond symptom management—I help clients break free from trauma-driven patterns that keep them stuck in cycles of pain, addiction, and self-doubt.

As a specialist in addiction treatment and recovery, I prioritize addressing the underlying trauma that fuels self-destructive behaviors. Many traditional models focus only on the addiction itself, missing the deeper wounds that drive it. My work creates space for clients to heal at the root level, building sustainable change rather than temporary abstinence.

At the core of my practice is the belief that true healing comes from integrating past experiences into the present self with awareness, compassion, and resilience. Drawing from my training from Naropa University’s own philosophy and Transpersonal Counseling Psychology program, I emphasize mindfulness and contemplative reflection, helping clients develop a deep felt sense—the ability to connect with and regulate emotions and sensations tied to their lived experiences.

At Breakthrough Recovery of Colorado, our work is about more than just therapy—it's about transformational healing. We help clients bridge the gap between past wounds and present growth, guiding them toward a life that is grounded, self-aware, and free from trauma’s grip, and build the skills and self-confidence necessary to handle any challenge life may throw your way.
