“FINDING MEANING IN THE JOURNEY


& PEACE IN THE MOMENT.”




WELCOME


AUTHENTIC LIFE COUNSELING – COLORADO SPRINGS

As a Licensed Professional Counselor in the state of Colorado, a Licensed
Addictions Counselor and a National Certified Counselor, I lean heavily on the
importance of the human experience and focus on the client instead of the
symptom. I believe that problems develop as a result of being inhibited from
living an authentic and meaningful life. I also contend that the human condition
is comprised of physical, psychological, spiritual, and emotional components,
and when one or more are ignored or repressed, maladaptive responses develop. My
intervention approach concentrates on increasing self-awareness while gaining a
deeper understanding of, and reconnecting to the authentic self. The ultimate
goal being acceptance and growth that will lead to a meaningful and fulfilling
life.

COUNSELING SERVICES

As a therapist, I view each client as a whole person and strongly emphasize
positive support and empathetic understanding within a nonjudgmental and safe
environment.

I believe that although our lives are influenced by past experiences, our
present does not have to be defined by them. By connecting thoughts with
behaviors and how they influence each other, one has the ability to transform
responses and reframe the narrative of their story.

TREATING FIRST RESPONDERS

Originating from a familial and civilian law enforcement background, I
understand the challenges faced by law enforcement, first responders and their
families. The constant “fight or flight” state of arousal, if not properly
managed, can lead to many physical ailments and emotional maladaptive responses.
It is important to recognize the unique toll placed on first responders and
their families. I provide a high level of confidentiality and safety to explore
emotional and/or relationship issues that arise as a result of a chosen career.
 As a member of the International Association of Chiefs of Police (IACP),
I adhere to best practices established by the IACP and work with officers and
law enforcement personnel with critical incident stress management (CISM),
provide post critical incident psychological intervention,  and assist
departments in development of a model policy on mental health.  As a Certified
Clinical Trauma Professional (CCTP) I recognize the importance of providing
trauma-focused therapeutic interventions that are evidence based and focuses on
cognitive restructuring intended to improve thinking patterns while
incorporating healthy coping skills.
