I believe that humans should ideally be unfolding and growing throughout their lifetime. This means embracing change, especially when life gets difficult and we feel stuck, dissatisfied, or overwhelmed. Change is a journey with ups and downs. Personally, I believe we all struggle with challenges at different times in our life and it's the courageous who seek help.
Hello! Nice to meet you! I am a board-certified, Licensed Professional Counselor with over 20 years of experience. I specialize in child/teen therapy and improving family communication. I enjoy helping people look at challenges in different ways. I am a member of a certified therapy dog team with my Corgi, Olive. I am also a Global Career Development Facilitator and enjoy coaching people through transitions.
With decades of experience, I am well-versed in many different modalities. No one approach works for everyone, so I built a large tool kit to have a broad range of tools available. Areas of expertise include individual, couples and family counseling, trauma recovery, anxiety, depression, special needs of gifted and talented, medical social work, impact of illness, traumatic brain injury, grief and bereavement, positive aging, geriatrics and end of life issues. Having been raised in a military family I enjoy working with our veterans, active duty personnel and their families.
As a Psychiatric-Mental Health Nurse Practitioner since 2023 and a psychiatric nurse since 2018, I specialize in Complex trauma, LGBTQIA+ issues and co-occurring conditions. My approach is compassionate, client-centered, and trauma-informed, focusing on the areas that you would like to work on. All medication or therapy is tailored to your needs and avoiding the "try and see" method of treatment.
As your Psychiatric-Mental Health Nurse Practitioner, I want you to know that I am here for you every step of the way. You can trust that I am fully committed to your well-being and dedicated to providing you with the highest quality of care.
Something positive, warm, and uplifting about me as your PMHNP is that I genuinely believe in your strength and resilience. I see your potential for growth and healing, even during the toughest of times. Together, we'll navigate through the challenges.
After receiving my Bachelor’s degree in Psychology from Colorado State University, I worked in the corporate world as a business consultant. While working as a consultant, I frequently observed how people’s hectic work schedules and day-to-day stressors could slowly wear them down emotionally, resulting in their happiness being compromised.
Seeing this trend in the business world, coupled with the passion I’ve always had for understanding people’s thinking and way of doing things, prompted me to pursue my Masters degree in Counseling Psychology from University of Colorado Denver. Now with my professional experience and educational background, I can more easily navigate how to handle the day-to-day stressors and help my clients manage the mental health piece of their lives.
Hello, I'm Janet. I believe we hold the power and intuition to change our lives and live more joyfully. As Joseph Campbell said, “We cannot cure the world of sorrows, but we can choose to live in joy.” Sometimes we just need some guidance to move forward. If you are struggling to feel better about yourself and life or to heal from past experiences, you are not alone. I would like to offer my knowledge and empathic therapeutic style to empower and support you in your journey towards more peace, understanding, and healing.
Helping individuals and couples overcome challenges with relationships, boundaries, communication, and self-esteem (among many other issues) is the great honor of my life! I welcome adult clients of all genders, ages, and backgrounds who have a growth mindset and are committed to doing their work. Outside of being a mental health therapist, I have decades of experience working in the holistic health field as a Life & Health Coach, massage therapist, doula, and yoga instructor.
I have been working with families for over 20 years and have extensive training in trauma-focused modalities. My background is in education and mental health, having professional experience as an educator, school counselor, and therapist. I enjoy working with couples, families and individuals, ages 12 and up. I have a Masters Degree in both Education and Marriage and Family Therapy. Some areas of expertise are: couples therapy, relationship issues, parenting, anxiety, trauma, and ADHD.
